Single or Taken? How to Spend Valentine’s Day Single’s Inferno-Style in Korea

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and thanks to Single’s Inferno 4, its dreamy filming locations are in higher demand than ever. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to experience a Paradise date like the contestants, here’s your chance to turn fantasy into reality. Whether you’re splurging on luxury, keeping it cozy, or embracing your single era, here’s how to plan the perfect Single’s Inferno-inspired Valentine’s Day in Korea.

The Banyan Tree Club & Spa Seoul, featured as the show’s Paradise, is one of Korea’s most luxurious hotels, offering stunning skyline views, spa retreats, and private pools. If you’re looking to impress someone special, here’s what a stay at Banyan Tree will cost on February 14:

🏨 Banyan Suite – 790,000 KRW per night (Luxury suite with panoramic city & mountain views)

🏊 Deluxe Pool Suite – 1,015,000 KRW per night (Private indoor pool experience)

💎 Presidential Suite – 4,500,000 KRW per night (Ultimate luxury with VIP amenities)

With Single’s Inferno fever still going strong, rooms may sell out fast. If Banyan Tree isn’t available, consider other high-end hotels like The Shilla Seoul, Signiel Seoul, or Four Seasons Seoul, all of which offer luxurious spa retreats, fine dining, and breathtaking views.

Alternative Romantic Date Ideas Inspired by Single’s Inferno

🌊 Han River Night Cruise & Fine Dining

Want to recreate the yacht date between Park Hae-lin and Kim Jeong-su? Set sail on a sunset cruise along the Han River or visit MOOD Seoul, a floating restaurant on Sevit Island, where you can enjoy cocktails and fresh seafood with a romantic waterfront view.

For a drama-worthy rooftop dinner, head to upscale restaurants like Grand Hyatt’s The Lounge, Ryunique, or Sky Kingdom, where you can dine with breathtaking cityscapes.

☕ Café Hopping in Seongsu—For a Trendy Valentine’s Vibe

Not a fan of candlelit fine dining? Switch it up by café-hopping in Seongsu, Seoul’s trendiest district, filled with hidden coffee shops, designer boutiques, and Instagrammable spots. Inspired by Park Jeong-su’s Haerye Coffee, an Italian-style café featured on the show, explore the neighborhood while sipping on specialty brews and indulging in pastries.

Bonus: Seongsu is also a shopping paradise, so you can grab a unique gift for your date while you're there.

🏕️ Glamping Under the Stars—For a Cozy & Romantic Getaway

For a K-drama-style escape, trade city lights for a romantic glamping experience. Pack pork belly, wine, and marshmallows, and head to a luxury glamping site on the outskirts of Seoul, where you can snuggle up by the campfire.
