Career
Before Single's Inferno, Ham worked as a freelance announcer, combining corporate in-house announcing, city news reading and work as an MC for events. That made her one of the few cast members already used to working in front of a camera.
In the first episode of Single's Inferno 5, Kim Jae-jin received the most votes from the women and picked Ham for the first trip to Paradise. Their early connection was one of the opening storylines of the season, but Kim later grew closer to craft artist Lee Joo-young, who also became his final partner. When the final choices were made, Ham used the season's new option to decline to choose anyone and was the only cast member to do so.
The season premiered on 20 January 2026 and ended on 10 February 2026, followed by a reunion special on 14 February. No later projects for Ham had been reported in the sources reviewed.
