Enter Mia Kim, a trainee surgeon ready to shake up the villa and hopefully find the man of her dreams.
If anything just to get away from the family she'd been...

When the producers told me the guys would be choosing whether they wanted to come on a date with me or not, I expected one or two might appear as it's only the second night.
What I didn't expect that every single one of them was gonna turn up.
At the same time.
The death stares I was gonna get from the girls when I got inside were already making me shit my pants.
I spot them all walking towards the garden I was sat in the middle of, like a lonely melon.
'Hi!' I smile, standing up and smoothing out my dress as I quickly scout my eyes over the five of them without seeming too excited.
'Hiya nice to meet you!' I hug the first guy that approaches me, tall and light brown hair. 'Hiya, y'alright? I'm Brad.' He kisses my cheek and I try not to act too surprised.
'Ooh kiss on the cheek! I'm Mia!' The both of us laugh as I then make my way through the group of boys. There's a slightly shorter guy with dark hair called Toby, a tall guy in white shorts called Aaron, another tall guy called Hugo and a shorter tanned guy with light hair called Jake.
'Jake you on the champagne lad?' They all push him over to the bottle and he doesn't hesitate, popping as I start asking the boys a question, and jumping a mile out of my skin.
'Jesus Christ!!' I hold my hand on my heart as they all laugh. 'Nearly had a bloody heart attack!' I breathe. We all fill our glasses up and get to talking.
'So I'll be quizmaster.' I giggle. 'How old are you all?' I ask them, a polite smile on my face. 'I'm 24.' Aaron starts. '26.' I point to Brad. '24.' Hugo answers. '22.' Toby replies and I hold my hand up for a hi-five as I point to Jake.
Who didn't seem to have a clue what was going on.
'What's that? Sorry.'
I laugh loudly with the guys. 'How old are you?' 'Oh. 24.' He chuckles nervously. 'How about you? 22 as well?' Toby asks and I nod. 'Yep.'
'So whereabouts are you from?' Jake then asks me, trying to distract from the blunder a minute ago. 'I'm from Busan in South Korea.' I smile as the guys' eyes all widen.
'You can probably tell, I've got a bit of a tinge to the accent. But I moved to England, Reading, with my family about 11 years ago.' I blush, never normally one for attention.
'Ahh that's sick! So, how are you feeling about the date then?' I think it's Hugo that asks me.
'Not gonna lie, I'm so glad someone turned up. I was terrified I'd be sat on my own all night.' I laugh with a hand over my mouth.
'I thought you'd all be coupled up and not want to leave your girls. So does this mean you're all really unfaithful then?' I redirect the question back at them with a raised brow and a couple of the boys chuckle.
