From Squid Game to Hellbound, Korean productions on Netflix have been performing tremendously over the past few months. Its newest hit Single’s Inferno, a dating reality show, has been picking up traction as the hottest show at the moment – in more ways than one.
Nine attractive contestants are trapped on an island called Inferno for nine days; not only do they have to live by their own means, but they’re all looking for love at the same time.
Cha Hyun-seung made his appearance on the fifth episode of the programme, with both the female and male contestants acknowledging his good looks.
But beyond impressive build, let’s find out a little bit more about Cha’s life and what he gets up to outside of Single’s Inferno!
He rose to fame for performing with Sunmi
Not only have videos – or “fancams” – highlighting Cha’s dancing gone viral, during Sunmi’s performance of her single Lalalay on Korean music programme Inkigayo, a fancam of Cha dancing alongside Sunmi accumulated one million views.
He’s also worked with other K-pop celebrities
