Netflix has revealed the singles of the new dating series Love Is Blind: Netherlands . Meet 30 Dutch romantics looking for true love, without ever seeing each other. From the so-called pods - individual rooms separated by a thin wall - they get to know one another and discover whether a genuine emotional connection can develop.
The big question is: can you fall in love with someone you've never seen, and decide they're the person you want to spend the rest of your life with? The couples only meet face-to-face after getting engaged, when they finally discover whether the connection they built sight unseen can survive in the real world. Is their love strong enough to build a future together? And will they prove that love really is blind?

About Love is Blind: Netherlands In Love is Blind: Netherlands , 30 single men and women enter the pods in the hope of finding a genuine, lasting connection, without ever seeing the person they're talking to. They date in individual pods, separated by a thin wall, and have the chance to build an emotional connection before meeting face-to-face. If they feel they've found the right person, they can even get engaged before seeing each other for the first time. From there, the couples meet in person and find out whether their connection can survive outside the pods. They travel together, move in together, plan their weddings, and navigate the challenges of building a relationship in the real world. And then comes the ultimate test: the altar. Will they say 'I do' and prove that love really is blind, or will they decide to go their separate ways?
