(Netflix)
Episode
1-4:
Why
Are
Samuel
Lee
&
Mina
Sue
Choi
Facing
Criticism?
Single’s
Inferno
5
premiered
just
yesterday,
but
the
drama
has
already
hit
a
boiling
point.
While
sparks
are
flying
on
Inferno
Island
and
connections
are
beginning
to
take
shape,
two
contestants-Samuel
Lee
and
Mina
Sue
Choi-have
found
themselves
at
the
center
of
intense
online
criticism.
Samuel
Lee’s
name
has
been
trending
for
reasons
far
removed
from
his
gameplay.
Fans
and
Reddit
users
have
resurfaced
details
from
his
past
relationship,
accusing
him
of
cheating
on
his
ex-girlfriend.
As
screenshots
and
claims
circulate
online,
the
controversy
has
fueled
heated
debates
across
social
media,
making
Samuel
one
of
the
most
discussed
contestants
of
the
season
so
far.
On
the
other
hand,
Mina
Sue
Choi,
who
initially
emerged
as
a
fan
favorite,
is
now
facing
a
shift
in
public
opinion.
Viewers
have
begun
calling
out
her
expressions
and
on-screen
demeanor,
labeling
her
as
“arrogant” and
accusing
her
of
having
a
“pick-me”
attitude.
Her
multiple
romantic
interests
on
the
show
have
also
drawn
mixed
reactions,
with
some
fans
questioning
her
intentions.
She approached lim subeen to talk but seung-il suddenly came to her when she was going with subeen but she immediately changed her mind AGAIN !
I feel like subeen will keep his distance from her in the next eps, shes been treating him really bad #singlesinferno5 #choiminasue pic.twitter.com/ZR4R4x2oZ6

Cheating
Controversy:
Who
Is
His
Ex-Gf?
Samuel
Lee,
also
known
as
Lee
Sung
Hun,
has
found
himself
at
the
center
of
online
scrutiny
soon
after
Single’s
Inferno
5
premiered.
Based
in
New
York,
Samuel
frequently
travels
between
the
US
and
South
Korea
and
was
previously
in
a
public
relationship
with
TikTok
influencer
Hena
Yang,
who
boasts
over
a
million
followers.
Eagle-eyed
fans
noticed
that
Hena
has
removed
all
videos
featuring
Samuel,
reigniting
discussions
on
Reddit.
Netizens
allege
that
Samuel
cheated
during
their
relationship,
with
the
controversy
intensifying
after
viewers
spotted
him
changing
his
Instagram
handle
from
@ssamuellee
to
@snhgnl
following
the
show’s
release.
Adding
fuel
to
the
speculation,
the
account
was
reportedly
deleted
entirely
on
January
21,
2026,
just
a
day
after
the
series
premiered.
