Single’s Inferno 5 Male Contestant’s Surprising Farming Background Uncovered

Woo Sung Min is surprising fans with old footage showing him working on a pig farm for a youth reality show.

The controversy began after the finale of Single’s Inferno 5. Viewers dug up a 2013 EBS broadcast where a younger Woo Sung Min appeared under a different name. He was a high school student taking part in a hands-on farming experience.

During the show, he revealed he wanted to be an actor and hoped TV exposure would help his career. He got assigned to a pig farm, where he cleaned animal waste and moved sawdust. The tough conditions and strong smell quickly overwhelmed him.

Fans found the contrast funny. The young, struggling version of Woo Sung Min is very different from his calm, romantic image on Single’s Inferno 5.

Co-star Kim Go Eun described Woo Sung Min as a “paper human” on the dating show — gentle and delicate. The old footage showing him tired and vulnerable matches that vibe, prompting playful reactions online.

On Single’s Inferno 5, Woo Sung Min introduced himself as an optician. Now fans know he also chased acting back in the day. He expressed his feelings steadily on the show and made it to the final couple.

As Single’s Inferno 5 stays popular, more surprising past stories like this are coming out about the cast.
