Single Inferno Season 5 Release Date
Single’s Inferno Season 5 is set to release on Netflix on January 20, 2026, worldwide. Netflix and Korean entertainment outlets have been lining up trailers and teasers around that date, turning the premiere into a proper event rather than a quiet drop. @netflixth shared on X that Single's Inferno Season 5 will feature contestants competing for hotness in a paradise island, streaming from January 20th on Netflix.
What makes this season feel a bit different is that it’s the first time a Korean unscripted show on Netflix has reached a fifth season, which says a lot about how strongly the format has clicked with global audiences.
The renewal was locked in soon after Season 4 wrapped with record viewing hours, so Season 5 has been quietly building hype for months before the January launch.
Single Inferno Season 5 Release Time
Single’s Inferno Season 5 follows the usual Netflix K‑content timing, with episodes going live globally at the same moment and showing up at different local times. Part 1 (Episodes 1–4) drops together, giving fans a decent chunk to binge before the weekly rhythm kicks in.

Where to Watch Single’s Inferno Season 5?
Single’s Inferno Season 5 will stream exclusively on Netflix worldwide. An active Netflix subscription is all that’s needed, whether you’re watching on TV, phone, or secretly on a second monitor while pretending to answer emails.
@NetflixID shared on X that Single's Inferno Season 5, where love and heartbreak collide, premieres on January 20th on Netflix.
How Many Episodes Are There?
Single’s Inferno Season 5 is expected to have 12 episodes in total, with most recent reports pointing to a 12‑episode run similar to Season 4.
Netflix hasn’t posted a formal episode-count card, but regional guides and entertainment outlets are already listing a multi-week rollout spanning late January into February.
Part 1 arrives with Episodes 1–4 on January 20, then new episodes are scheduled to drop in pairs on subsequent Tuesdays, wrapping up in early to mid‑February 2026.
That pacing has worked well for the show: enough content to keep social feeds buzzing, but still enough time between drops for theories, ship wars, and “did they really do that?” group chats.
What to Expect in Single’s Inferno Season 5?
Viewers can expect Single’s Inferno Season 5 to lean even harder into “multiple main characters,” with producers promising more overlapping love lines and stronger personalities than in any previous season.
Early previews tease bigger cast dynamics, intense pool scenes that the hosts are already hyping up, and a few twists in how Paradise and Inferno are used to shake up established pairs.
At its core, the format stays the same: singles stranded on a hot island, no age or job reveals at first, and a golden ticket to Paradise only if you manage to match up.
The difference this time is the scale larger cast, higher expectations, and a fanbase that now watches each slow glance and awkward silence like it’s a clue in a mystery series rather than just a dating show beat.
