The concept of the show? Singles go in search of true love, “blind” in English. They meet and talk in separate pods, in which they can hear each other but never see each other. After several of these meetings, they may decide to proceed with a marriage proposal. It is only then that they discover each other physically for the first time. Subsequently, the couples get to know each other better, go on their honeymoon and meet their mutual families. In each country, Love is Blind is hosted by a couple. In the United States for example, these are the actors Nick and Vanessa Lachey, the latter being the heroine of NCIS : Hawai’i.
