His aloof persona immediately caught attention and soon started a love triangle between him, Seul-ki, and Jong-woo. He also dealt with his growing feelings for Seul-ki and his bond with Nadine.

By the Single’s Inferno Season 2 finale, fans became clear on where Jin-young would stand. Fans also realized the minor errors Jin-young committed along the way that lost him Seul-ki’s heart in Single’s Inferno Season 2. But what was Jin-young hoping to find on the island?

In his bio interview, he explained he wants to feel that special spark with someone. Regarding his ideal type, he seemed to prefer a more soft-spoken and demure person like Seul-ki. During the finale, he revealed he had not had time to settle down since leaving the military.

When it comes to a relationship, he wanted to find someone with a stable life and would not be able to take care of both her and himself. He explains, “I think I wanted to be with someone whom I simply like and to whom my heart leans toward.”

Jin-young reveals to Agent H his ideal type is TWICE’s Sana

After the premiere of Physical 100, fans learned the swoon-worthy Agent H has a deep connection to Single’s Inferno’s Season 2 Jin-young. They are both UDT soldiers, work for the same entertainment production company, and participated in Netflix’s unscripted series. In a new video on Agent H’s YouTube, MissionPossible_AgentH, he talks to Jin-young about their experiences on the show.

Getting down to the juicy details, Agent H asked Jin-young what he looks for in a partner. Jin-young admitted he admires someone who takes care of themselves physically. Agent H asked the important question of what celebrity is his ideal type. Single’s Inferno Season 2’s Jin-young revealed it is TWICE’s Sana.

In terms of looks, he admired that she is “cute, sexy, and a bit innocent-looking.” But to everyone’s surprise, his ideal type is also 20th Century Girl actor Kim Yoo-jung. The 23-year-old actor is well known for her K-drama roles in Love in the Moonlight, Lovers of the Red Sky, and Backstreet Rookie.
