A short clip involving actor Lee Jong Suk and Single’s Inferno 5 contestant Choi Mina Sue has unexpectedly gone viral, drawing amused reactions from fans across social media platforms. The moment, which shows Lee’s character deleting Mina Sue’s number immediately after a dinner date, has been widely shared as a humorous crossover between scripted drama and reality television.
The scene itself is not from Netflix’s hit dating show Single’s Inferno 5, but from the drama Law and the City, where the two actors previously appeared together. The clip has resurfaced now that Choi Mina Sue is gaining attention as one of the breakout personalities on the current season of Single’s Inferno. Viewers quickly connected the dots, turning the brief exchange into a meme and circulating it across Reddit, Instagram and Facebook discussion threads.
In the scene, Lee Jong Suk’s character shares a polite dinner with Mina Sue’s character before promptly deleting her contact information afterward. The exaggerated decisiveness of the action, combined with its timing, struck viewers as unintentionally funny, especially when recontextualized alongside Mina Sue’s current reality dating storyline.
Choi Mina Sue, an Australian-born beauty queen and actress, has been steadily building her profile through drama appearances in projects such as Melo Movie, DNA Lover and Law and the City. Her participation in Single’s Inferno 5 has introduced her to a broader audience, with fans responding to her screen presence, background and candid personality.
Online reactions to the resurfaced clip highlight how easily moments from scripted series can take on new meaning when actors cross into reality television. The viral spread has also sparked renewed interest in Mina Sue’s earlier acting work, while reminding viewers of Lee Jong Suk’s long-running reputation for memorable on-screen moments.
