The “Single’s Inferno” Star Who Rejected Multiple Casting Offers
본문
Some people would jump at the chance to find true love (or boost their career) on Netflix‘s Single’s Inferno, but one cast member just wasn’t interested.
“Single’s Inferno” Season 1 poster Cha Hyun Seung arrived on the island mid-season, but he quickly became a fan favorite. It didn’t take long before his good looks, fit physique, and background as a K-Pop dancer began to take over the internet.

The dancer thanked the producers who “continued to contact” him even after he rejected their casting requests multiple times.
A summer night’s dream.
I believed that I was just an ordinary guy so when I received a DM to appear on the show, I declined it multiple times. However, they never gave up and they continued to contact me, so I want to thank the producers.

I also want to thank Sunmi and Changsub for convincing me to go on the show even though I didn’t want to. They told me that I might meet the right person on the program.

The K-Pop dancer previously went viral after performing with the “Gashina” singer at the 2018 Waterbomb Festival, as he became known as “Sunmi’s tan backup dancer.”

It was a hot and tiring summer, but it was thanks to you (fellow contestants) who made this the most memorable time of my life. I will never be able to forget this summer, which I spent with you all. I love you guys.
Thank you to the production crew who suffered even more than the contestants. It was because of you that I was able to look attractive on the show.

| @502bright/Instagram We can’t imagine watching Single’s Inferno without this hunky dancer, so a big round of applause to Sunmi and BTOB’s Changsub for convincing him to join the show!
