Netizens are calling it the "beauty pageant edition" of Single's Inferno!

Netflix's Single's Inferno has introduced quite a diverse cast for its third season, making it all the more interesting with contestants from different backgrounds coming together to potentially meet their perfect match. Among the male participants were a fashion model, an actor (who even appeared in K-drama My Demon), a real estate agent, a bakery owner, a professional basketball player, and a police officer who's a member of the Korean Coast Guard. 

But here's a fun fact: Did you know that, among the six female participants, five of them are all beauty queens? Because of this, Korean netizens are even calling Season 3 the "beauty pageant edition" of the dating show. The production team has since addressed the issue, claiming that it was purely coincidental and that they"didn't specifically look for beauty pageant contestants."

One of the most fascinating developments in Season 3 was when Kim Gyu Ri and Yu Si Eun were both vying for the heart of the 24-year-old male model Choi Min Woo. Interestingly, it actually wasn't the first time that there was some sort of contest between the two ladies. In 2022, both competed for Miss Korea. While Gyu Ri made it as a Top 30 finalist, Si Eun was able to bring home the first runner-up crown.

Another Season 3 star who participated in Miss Korea was Choi Min Ji, who won 2nd runner-up in 2021, just a year before Gyu Ri and Si Eun competed in the same beauty pageant.

Additionally, An Min Young, a 26-year-old Pilates instructor, was also revealed to have joined the regional leg of the beauty pageant. She was crowned Miss Korea Busan in 2023.

While Yun Ha Jeong was introduced in the show as an ordinary office worker at a medical company, just like her fellow female contestants, she also has some beauty pageant experience up her sleeve. She might not have joined Miss Korea (yet), but she did place fourth in Miss Chunhyang 2021, participating under the name Yun Jin Ju. This makes Choi Hye Seon the only female participant from Single's Inferno Season 3 without prior experience in joining a beauty pageant.
