‘Singles Inferno 5’ Star Subeen Is Now Filming a Drama and His Manager Says It’s His Dream Come True

After gaining attention on Netflix’s “Singles Inferno 5,” Subeen is now stepping into a new phase of his career and according to someone close to him, it’s something he has dreamed about for a long time.

The reality show contestant is currently filming a new drama, marking another step in his transition from reality TV personality to full-time actor.

From Reality TV Buzz to Acting Set

Subeen first caught viewers’ attention on Singles Inferno 5, where his visuals and athletic build quickly made him one of the most talked-about contestants of the season.

But even before the show, acting had already been part of his plan.

According to earlier reports, Subeen joined the cast of the upcoming tvN drama “Gift,” a baseball-themed series based on a Kakao webtoon. The drama follows a professional baseball coach who gains unusual abilities after an accident and ends up leading a struggling amateur team.

The series is expected to feature Kim Woo Bin in a leading role.

A Drama That Fits His Real Life

What makes this role especially meaningful for Subeen is how closely it connects to his past.

Before entering the entertainment industry, Subeen was actually a baseball player. He reportedly spent nearly 10 years as a pitcher before injuries forced him to leave the sport.

That difficult turning point eventually pushed him to pursue a new path in acting and modeling.

Because of that background, appearing in a baseball drama feels like a rare moment where two different chapters of his life come together.

“His Dream Is Coming True”

Recently, Subeen’s manager shared an update about the actor’s current activities, revealing that he is actively shooting the drama right now.

The manager added that Subeen is extremely happy about the opportunity, describing the project as something that makes him feel like his dream is finally becoming reality.

For fans who discovered him through Singles Inferno 5, the news offers a glimpse into what may become the next stage of his career.

From Dating Show Star to Actor

Reality shows often bring sudden attention, but turning that moment into a long-term career can be difficult.

Subeen seems determined to take that step.

With a sports background, acting experience, and now a role in a baseball drama that connects directly to his past, his journey from former athlete to reality show star to actor is starting to take shape.

And if his manager’s words are any indication, Subeen is enjoying every moment of it.
