This article has been updated to include pairings from the entire season. 

After 12 episodes of love triangles, intrigue, and surprise gamechangers, Single’s Inferno Season 5 has come to an end. 

The premise of the hit Netflix dating show is simple: hot people are left on a deserted island dubbed Inferno, and the only way off is by finding a mutual love interest to join you for a night in Paradise. Now, it may seem straightforward, but Single’s Inferno can get complicated very fast when its contenders are constantly switching romantic partners or getting themselves stuck in increasingly messy situations (ahem, Mina Sue).

The season finale dropped on Netflix on February 10, concluding the love stories (and, well, romantic flops) of our 15 contestants. To help you keep track of who ended up with whom, here’s how things wrapped up for everyone on this season of Single’s Inferno. 

Youn Hyun Jae

Hyun Jae had his sights on Joo Young all season, but the feelings turned out to not be mutual. 

In Episode 10’s Trench Tug of War challenge, Hyun Jae came out as one of the victors, which allowed him to bring Joo Young to Paradise one last time. However, while there, things were awkward between the two singles. Joo Young finally confessed out loud that Jae Jin was her first choice, and Hyun Jae just had to deal with that.

Hyun Jae still chose Joo Young as his pick to leave Inferno in the finale, but even he knew it was over between them. Hope things work out for you outside of Inferno, Hyun Jae.

Seung Il finally figured out that Kim Min Gee was the girl for him.

The two had a heart-to-heart about their feelings for each other, and Min Gee made it abundantly clear that she still liked Seung Il the most (despite having spent a night in Paradise with Lim Su Been).

Seung Il chose Min Gee in the finale, and the two left Inferno together.

Park Hee Sun

For a second there, it wasn’t clear if Hee Sun would be leaving Inferno with Su Been. 

Even the show’s panelists weren’t sure, especially since Su Been’s night in Paradise with Min Gee had left Hee Sun debating whether he was still worth pursuing. Since this is the first season of Single’s Inferno that allows contestants to withhold their final decision, there was a non-zero chance that Hee Sun would withhold hers.

But in the end, Hee Sun chose Su Been, and the show revealed that the two had talked things out the night before. They walked out of Inferno holding hands.

Shin Hyeon Woo

Hyeon Woo really fumbled the bag with Kim Go Eun. 

After a more-than-awkward night in Paradise together, it was clear that Go Eun had bumped Hyeon Woo down to the bottom of her list.

Hyeon Woo still chose her as his final pick, but Go Eun ended up leaving Inferno with Woo Sung Min.

Throughout the season, Go Eun had three men in her rotation: Hyeon Woo, Sung Min, and game-changer Jo I Geon. 

For a while, it seemed as if I Geon was her top choice. They had, after all, spent two evenings in Paradise together, and he’d been trying his best to make it clear that he liked her (emphasis on “trying”).

Well, it looks like he didn’t try hard enough, because in a scene that surprised even the panelists, Go Eun chose Sung Min as her Paradise partner. They left Inferno together, leaving I Geon and Hyeon Woo hanging their heads behind them.

Jim Jae Jin

Mr. Nonchalant’s top choice was Joo Young, and the feelings were mutual (and have been mutual for quite a few episodes). Joo Young said that she was looking for someone who puts her at ease while still giving her butterflies, and she found that match in Jae Jin. The two left Inferno together.

Ham Ye Jin

Ye Jin was one of the few girls who didn’t have a solid love interest this entire season. There was a minute when she seemed to be putting her hat in the ring with I Geon, but the man already had his sights on Go Eun. Ye Jin was the only one who withheld her final choice in the finale.

Woo Sung Min

Sung Min had Go Eun as his top choice for the latter half of the season, but it was unclear whether or not she would choose him in the end.

Go Eun quickly became one of the most popular girls in Inferno, and Sung Min was left trying to compete for her affection with I Geon and Hyeon Woo. Thankfully, Sung Min’s long, long chats with her paid off, because Go Eun ended up choosing him as her final pick.

Kim Min Gee

Min Gee liked Seung Il the most this entire season, and it came as no surprise that the two chose each other to leave Inferno together. The two left the show as one of the most straightforward couples on the island.

Despite some bumps in their relationship, Su Been has liked Hee Sun since the midway point of the season. There was a chance that they wouldn’t be leaving Inferno together, especially because Su Been is such a bad communicator (and had failed to mention that he’d shared a bed with Min Gee while in Paradise). But Su Been and Hee Sun talked it out, and they ended the season as a couple.

Lee Sung Hun

In a shocking turn of events (at least for me), Sung Hun finally got Choi Mina Sue to go on real, romantic dates with him. The last two episodes saw the couple spending more time together, despite Mina Sue having spent most of the season keeping Sung Hun as her third safety option (ouch). We also learned more about Sung Hun’s backstory after he revealed in Paradise that he studied at UC Berkeley and is currently working as a quant trader in New York. In the finale, Sung Hun was the only one who chose Mina Sue to leave Inferno with, and vice versa.

Lee Joo Young

Although she wasn’t completely sure about her feelings at the start, Joo Young has since consistently chosen Jae Jin as her top romantic interest. After gently letting Hyun Jae down (while they were in Paradise, no less), Joo Young put all her focus on Jae Jin. The two left Inferno together in the finale.

Mina Sue was the season’s most indecisive contender, but she finally made up her mind and chose Sung Hun as her top choice. The two went on several dates together during their last few days in Inferno, and they ended up leaving the island together. Proud of you, Mina Sue.

Jo I Geon

I Geon, you really messed things up with Go Eun. Although they had spent two nights in Paradise together, I Geon played it a little too cool at the end of the season (and spent a little too much time talking about Ha Eun). This soured Go Eun’s feelings for him, and she ended up choosing Sung Min as her final pick.

Lee Ha Eun

Ha Eun, like Ye Jin, didn’t have a strong romantic interest for the entire season. She showed some feelings for Jae Jin, and even chose him as her final pick in the finale, but it didn’t look like she’d actively pursued him on the island. Instead, she was spending a lot of time with I Geon, although he swears that he saw her more as a sibling than anything else.
