Single's Inferno 4 panelist Hong Jin-kyung gained attention for comments on Lee Si-an's love interests in the show. In the show's initial episodes, Lee Si-an liked Kim Jeong-su, who was also attracted to her.
As the show progressed, in episode 7 she revealed she was interested in Jang Theo and Yuk Jun-seo as they also showed interest in her. She revealed that her emotions were unclear about whom she should go to.
Panelist Hong Jin-kyung commented on her emotions, comparing her situation with being liked by three popular South Korean actors, Cha Eun-woo, Park Bo-gum, and Byeon Woo-seok.
She said,
“For example, if Cha Eunwoo said he liked me, then I'd be thrilled. But the next day, if Park Bogum said he liked me, I'd probably like him too.”

To this, host Lee Da-hee added,
“And the day after that, Byeon Wooseok says he likes you.”
In response, Hong Jin-kyung stated,
“Seriously. I'd be so confused.”
Single's Inferno 4 viewers and fans were divided, as some enjoyed her humorous response. Meanwhile, some fans disagreed with her, believing that male contestants should not be compared with the three actors. This is because Kim Jeong-su and Yuk Jun-seo have been criticized for their alleged behavior on the show. A fan said,
“So true but none of the boys are even at par with the examples”
More fans shared their views on the comment.
“This is only understandable if those three men are actually cha eunwoo, park bogum, and byeon wooseok tho,” another fan stated
“None of them are cha eunwoo, park bogum or byeon wooseok, i wouldn't be confused at all.”- a user added
Single's Inferno 4 viewers further criticized Hong Jin-kyung for allegedly justifying Lee Si-an's emotions for being confused about being interested in Yuk Jun-seo, Jang Theo, and previously Kim Jeong-su.

"I get jinkyung but not sian cause honestly girl refused to see all the reds in the guy that she choose. Except theo, the other 2 hv screams red flag especially that junseo guy whos not even good looking imo," a fan wrote.
