One of the big changes this season was the appearance of a new host. Alongside the favorites, netizens loved that Dex (also known as Kim Jin Young) was seated for commentary, especially as he was a very popular contestant from the previous series.

Yet, along with some netizens having mixed reactions to Gyu Ri’s behavior, host Dex was another person who shared his negative feelings about her attitude. In particular, Dex believed that Gyu Ri’s words were disrespectful and even shared that it showcased “her true self.”
When the episode aired, many netizens found Dex’s words hypocritical. Although some linked their anger back to Dex’s own experience with Lee Nadine, others criticized the way he would call out Gyu Ri’s behavior but not the likes of Lee Gwan Hee.
dex saying shes disappointed in gyuri is so funny bcs hello dont you remember what you did, u stand beside nadine for too long but end up not choosing her at the end

A man being a man what can I say. Gyuri was rude but still girly was right. And of course he couldn’t call out gwanhee on his shit like he called out gyuri just for being “rude” idk how guys liked him, he didn’t deserve this popularity at all https://t.co/HnjPTuMSg2

Dex calling gyuri shallow for not wanting to be an option in another mans game gave me an ICK. I understand where’s she coming from bc I’m not about to be option you gotta think about bby like pleeease take him from me cause he wasn’t for me anyways.

One thing about Jinyoung he’s ALWAYS gonna tell the truth. Gyuri is insane and disrespectful

Agree with Jinyoung. Gyuri was condescending and disrespectful when in fact Minwoo has been interested with Sieun from the start #SinglesInferno3

See, Dex (Jin-young) gave a correct explanation of Gyuri character – she’s a shallow person. Personally, I think she has mean girl energy and the fact that she knows his age making her to talk down on him is so distasteful. #singleinferno3

The panelists shared their honest opinions throughout the show, and for many, they added a perfect narrative to the show. Yet, with some polarizing contestants, it’s not surprising that not everyone agrees with all the comments.
