## Netflix‘s “Better Late Than Single” Offers a Refreshingly wholesome Take on Reality Dating
Netflix’s latest reality offering, *Better Late Than Single*, is quickly gaining attention for its departure from the often-hypersexualized landscape of the dating show genre. The series, which premiered all 10 episodes on Netflix, follows a group of singles as they navigate the challenges of finding love – or at least connection - through a series of group dates and one-on-one interactions.
Unlike many of its counterparts, *Better Late Than Single* focuses on “average people” and portrays the awkwardness and vulnerability inherent in the dating process. The show’s appeal lies in its relatability; viewers are witnessing interactions that mirror the often-clumsy realities of real-life courtship, complete with awkward silences and unrequited attraction. While group activities sometimes fall into gendered divisions, the series finds its footing as participants begin to connect individually, even amidst frequent dating mishaps and failed flirting attempts.
The show has already been renewed for a second season,slated to premiere on Netflix sometime in 2026,with casting applications currently being accepted – details can be found on Netflix Korea’s Instagram post.
