Single’s Inferno (솔로지옥) blends together everything a K-drama watcher loves about K-dramas and everything a reality dating show fan loves about reality dating shows. Beautiful people. Beautiful scenery. Juicy intrigue and heart-fluttering moments rivaling any romantic Korean drama. And just the right amount of reality competition to tie it all together.
When it was first announced that TV5 would be airing a Cignal/Viva Entertainment-produced Philippine adaptation of Korean drama Encounter, I was shocked and a little confused. Of all the Korean dramas they could adapt, they chose this Song Hye Kyo-Park Bo Gum romantic drama?
While the Weakest Link revival captures some of the original run’s magic, including retaining the most of the music and visuals, there’s still something not quite right just yet.
TV5 heralded its return to original local entertainment programming with the premieres of the APT Entertainment-produced game shows Fill In The Bank and Bawal Na Game Show. While neither show is going to drive a significant amount of new or returning viewers to TV5, they are both simple and accessible fresh programs during a time when such content is at a premium.
