Other male and female cast members also received attention through the program. Cha Hyun-seung, who joined the broadcast in the middle, became a hot topic as his experience as Sunmi’s dancer became known.

On Jan 9th, a review video titled “French people’s unexpected reactions to Single’s Inferno” was uploaded on the YouTube channel “French hotteok”.

It drew attention by delivering French locals’ opinions, which were quite different from Korean people’s reactions. On this day, Frenchman Somin exclaimed, “Single’s Inferno was fresh to me. It was very Korean.”

According to Somin, “Single’s Inferno” is extremely popular in France. It is said that you can find more review articles about it than the mega-hit “Squid Game”.

However, French people’s view of “Single’s Inferno” was quite different from that of Koreans. For example, the most popular cast member in France is Ahn Ye-won rather than Song Ji-ah.

French viewers left comments such as “I don’t understand why Ye-won has such a small amount of footage”, “Ye-won is my favorite. She has everything”, “A really lovely person”…

Somin also strongly agreed with this opinion and explained, “Nearly 90% of people say that Ye-won and So-yeon are their favorite participants.”

On the other hand, French people’s evaluation on Song Ji-ah was contrary to that of Korean viewers. Somin said, “She’s definitely not my style. She didn’t look happy at all. French people don’t really like Ji-ah either.”

A French Twitterian pointed out, “Ji-ah controls people with her pretty appearance. Three men follow her like puppies although she has no specific personality charm.” In addition, Moon Se-hoon’s obsessive love for Shin Ji-yeon also drew negative reactions.

French netizens posted reviews such as “I’m scared of Se-hoon. It doesn’t make sense to be that obsessed”, “This guy is so stupid”… The two YouTubers shared in chorus, “There is a proverb in Korea that says ‘There is no tree that won’t fall if you chop it 10 times’. However, he’s a stalker.”
