K-dramas and k-reality shows with their ability to make blue collar jobs like carpentry and tailoring looks so fucking glamorous....🫡

No, but seriously, nothing is as fascinating as hearing what they all do for a living. Like, what do you mean you're a live translator? What do you mean you translate for food tasters? What even is that career?

A calligrapher for utensils? How does one think of such a job?

Single's Inferno. 7.5/10

I would recommend season 2 to my friends. I would not rewatch this show.

Season 1 7.5/10

Jin Kyung's comments are so amusing. Lmaoo at the comment of how many times are they changing on this first day. Lmaoo at Yewon waving at the helicopter and being like omg did they leave by heli?

Soyeon is beautiful. Sehun cooking is beautiful. Jin Taek is my type visually. I want Yewon's bikini bod. She does have a nice smile and personality. I choose Sehun for myself. He's so honest. I'd be Yewon's friend.

Jin Taek's chest hair is a choice. I want in on this hotel experience. Shi Hoon really is like a Lee Jong Suk look.

Not me gasping at Sehun picking Jiyeon for heaven. And not me being so happy when Jiyeon chooses him next. Not Hyunjoong being like I'm your dog.

Season 2 7.6/10

I literally didn’t realize I would like this show. This is more interesting than American reality in terms of like having to do DIY living and that the hosts comment on what’s going on. It’s also way more wholesome and respectful.

I like the editing and set design for all this. The shipwrecked zone in the beginning was lovely. The bedrooms look so lovelyyy. This is glamping.

Kyu Hyun, my man, is who I’m looking at. Has relatable reactions. Tug of war between Yoong Jae and Dong Woo is so hot. Han Bin giving a rendition of Nam Joo Hyuk looks.

It literally feels like my first time witnessing men with manners, good bods, thoughtfulness, honesty, and care all in one. This is so wholesome to watch. I didn’t know a girl saying, “I’ll wait for you” would be so powerful and heart-exhilarating. The Jong Woo versus Jin Young wrestling was so intense. On the edge of my seat.

I eat a sweet potato without the skin. Seo Eun’s art is so my style. My prize would be french toast and iced americanos? I’ll take a pass. Why were the guys’ shirtless for the girl’s game if they weren’t even participating. Goodness.

lmao at how they call the campfire, hell fire. LOL at this B-roll for their careers.

My first impressions: Han Bin, I like, but him wanting someone positive doesn’t work with me. Dong Woo, my physical type. Can you believe your doctor is that? Yoong Jae, I would most likely end up liking. So Ee and Seo Eun would be my friends. So Ee is very self-aware, mature, and honest. Seo Eun is a vibe that I get along with.

Ending impressions: I would def go for Han Bin. An honest, kind, and supportive cook. If Se Jun liked me, I’d like him too. I knewwww Jong Woo would succeed in the end. If Selul Ki chose Jin Young, I thought she’d be making a mistake and is thinking with more emotion versus logic. If she ended up choosing Jong Woo, I felt that she would be choosing him because she decided to commit and saw what’s good. I stopped caring for Seo Eun and Yoong Jae’s interactions, but they’re good together. Yoong Jae kinda lost me after he failed to communicate well with So Ee, but he tried. I really thought Se Jeong would come in as a villain, and here I am just wanting her to have fun. Jong Woo’s super sweet corn coffee is probably super sweet because he’s super sweet. Can you believe all this happens in a week? The men wrestling was soo hard to watch. It was so intense , but I was def watching.

Season 3 7.5/10

I like Choi Hye Seon. She’s such a friend material kinda girl. Son Won Ik, I initially thought was cute but idk how I feel about him as a person. I really respect how Ha Jeong talks to Gwan Hee when it’s honest talk. She’s so straightforward, and it’s so cool. The female athletic battle was so fun to watch. Gyuri was so cool in both competitions. I respect her. Hye Seon and Ha Jeong battle was so intense. Minji is such a surprisingly comfortable person. I’m inspired. Minkyu offering his shirt for Minji’s tears is cute. The commentators are soo funny and relatable, esp. Hong Jin Kyung. I didn’t notice Gyuri’s beauty at first, but ever since the athletic battle, I can’t unsee it. I like how we’re aiming to get to dating by the end versus the Bachelor franchise where we gotta get engaged. I feel like Minkyu will treat his girl so well in the real world. The honesty between Si Eun and Min Woo is what I want.

Lee Jin Seok is my normal type, but I didn’t initially care for him here. But, I did like him more and more as we progressed. Gwan Hee is honestly unlikable to me.

Gwan Hee and Ha Jeong’s whole bantering and power play is such a weird dynamic. It’s like confusing to understand what they truly mean. They’re almost like best friends in my head. Ha Bin may have gotten all that candy, but he seems so irrelevant.

Ha Jeong’s chin tuck is crazy. The differences with this season from the previous two were so wild as we discovered it. Two infernos?? And like hell is just so much more tragic than before. Minwoo being a 2000s kid is wild to me.

Season 4 7.5/10

Liking Theo feels like if you liked me. Not that he and I are similar, but I feel like he could be my brother or something. We’re strains of each other.

Physically, I’m attracted to Tae Hwan. I like Yu Jin. She’s all time fav in this season. I really shipped her with Jun Seo in the beginning ㅠㅠ Lmao at everyone’s cute reactions to the skinship as we try to cross the log over the water. I do like how Jun Seo tried to throw the girls back up when they fell off the log. I love when the commentators are disagreeing on who has feelings or not. We all see differently.

oh my god at this competition for which guy will be the new guy.

Sian and Junseo sleeping in paradise is so wild to me. Hye Jin and Sian’s water fight was crazy.

I feel for Jiyeon’s thoughts about how Tae Hwan isn’t showing interest.

Season 5 7.5/10

Hyun Woo is my type physically. As is I Geon. I've grown to like Hyun Jae and Jin Jae. I like Mina Sue and Jooyoung. I've grown to like Minji, Doing the rope hang crawl is so hot. Su Been being a baseball player is so cool. The bowling pin drinks are unique.

Mina Sue seems like a Slytherin to me. Her wishy washy does seem too much for me, but I can see it as her just being very honest. Joo Young and Go Eun be handling my men.

Samuel's "bro"s mess me up. Not the CMU mutuals. I have never heard the name Soobin spelled as Su Been. Yeah, i don't love I Geon talking about Hee Sun in front of Minji.

I ship Subeen with Heesun.

Reunion 7.4/10

Not Mina Sue regretting every thing. At least she can see it.

I just love how Minji communicates. Jooyoung is so cute. She also looks really similar to Kazuha in ep 2.

Siren: Survive the Island. 사이렌: 불의 섬. 7.6/10

I wouldn't recommend this show to my friends. I woudn't rewatch this show.

Wow crazy that the police team could tell that someone was at their base and they missed that girl hiding under their base. It's crazy to see these women be so arrogant to me. I respect that they can be like that, but I also love humility.

The location for this is kinda perfect with all the weather altering everyone's plans. I wish I got to know each member a bit better versus like just knowing the team.

This store is next level. A large scale capture the flag is exactly what I want to do.

Poor stunt team for calling out gamja and getting no gamja. I can't imagine if you had to poop for awhile in this situation.

I enjoyed Lee Soo Ryun drawing out her plan. Lmao truu at how wildfires start so easily when making your own fire is hard. I really respect that these are all such hardcore Korean women. Lmao at the 30-minute shield people. I like the mentality of winning without cheap tricks so that you win through skill alone. I'm glad it was a friendly win at the end.

Physical: 100. 7.7/10

I would recommend this show to my friends. I wouldn't rewatch this show.

Season 1

I'm so turned on. I like any of the confidence, but none of the arrogance. Rooting for the underdogs is my favorite thing, especially in the ship challenge. I love when Areum points out that her husband is cute. The rest of the players supporting Sunho in the rock slope rolling one was beautiful.

All the women are so cool. Hwang Bit Yeoul is so cool, especially in the first pre-challenge. Jang Eun Sil was so cool in the 1-on-1 arena fight. I think she's cool in general too and a good leader. Yang Hak Seon in the first pre-challenge was so hot. Choo Sunghoon is hot in general. Him in that sand moving challenge was hot. He's so smart, adaptable, capable, and daddy af. Agent H, I can see his hotness. Nam Kyung Jin is hot af. Yun Sung Bin doing the sergeant jump was so hot.

Bbulkup's personality is so unattractive.

This really is like Squid Game but cooler since it's real. It's like watching an intense sports game. I see the appeal. I really enjoyed the male/female arena fight. The ships look cool.

lmaooo at calling Heedong Dooly's dongsaeng.

My god at all the sweating in the sand moving quest. Wow I really rooted for Jang Eunsil's team for the sand challenge, but I do think the result was unexpected. Carrying that rock for more than 2 hours??? That's wilddd.

Season 2

When Jung Dae Jin first entered, I thought it was Taecyeon.

I love how supportive everyone is of each other despite the competition and despite all the arrogance most or all people have. I like when we do hearts to the others. The pullups were fun to watch. The speed in the monkey bars is crazy. All the women who made it really far are sooo cool to me. Like so much respect to Hayan in the roller quest. Soojin in the mine quest is crazy cool. Not attracted to Hong Beom Seok, but he’s so cool. The challenges for the final four is so intense. I’m on the edge of my seat.

I’m attracted to Kim Dong Hyun, Kim Minsu, Lee Won Hee, and Amotti. Kim Minsu got me salivating. I’m going crazy for him in the mine quest.

I can’t do any of this, but I just want to know what it all feels like. They should do like a Bachelor in Paradise for this show where all the winners of each season go against each other later on.

The roller challenge made me think about how they could make this show so that the challenges they do have a positive impact on something like farming. Something that has like an external result too. The hard part is I want them to take care of their body and safety first over winning, but I also see the mentality of like mind>body and this is how they even got here.

Which member would you go out with as a boyfriend?
