# Siren: Survive the Island

Siren: Survive the Island (Korean: 사이렌: 불의 섬) is a South Korean reality competition series on Netflix. The series places 24 women, divided into six teams of four by their occupation (police officers, firefighters, bodyguards, soldiers, athletes and stuntwomen), on a remote island where they compete in various challenges over the course of seven days until only one team remains.
The season consisted of ten episodes. The first five episodes were released on May 30, 2023, while the last five episodes were released on June 6, 2023. Team Athlete won.
Unlike most reality TV programs, contestants were paid for participating and winners did not receive prize money. Director Lee Eun Kyung told interviewers that her goal with the series was to highlight honor in public service: "The participants are public servants who have staked their professional honor on this competition. From the start, they didn’t come to fight for money but for the honor." Each participant was paid equally, regardless of elimination.
Siren: Survive the Island has a 100% average Tomatometer and 96% average Popcornometer on Rotten Tomatoes. Netflix declined to renew the show for a second season.
