Netflix‘s new show Single’s Inferno has quickly gained attention worldwide for its addictiveness. The series followed a group of good-looking Korean contestants looking for love on a secluded island, similar to the Western show Love Island.
After the show’s success, the contestants on the show have seen their popularity soar. One person who was already famous before the reality show but has seen more global fame is social media influencer Song Ji A, known as Free Zia.
In a recent video, Ji A sat down and answered questions from her viewers to celebrate hitting one million subscribers, which her rising popularity from the show has probably helped. In particular, she spoke about things like whether the show was scripted, her personality, and more.
