Format[]
Like it's sister versions, Love Island Norway features a group of young and attractive singles having to couple up with one another in order to try and win the cash-prize. Throughout each season new islanders would enter the villa, in an attempt to try and test the loyalty of the other islanders, as shown through the re-coupling ceremonies where they'd get the chance to do so. If an islander failed to couple up during these re-couplings, they'd be dumped from the island.
While on the island, the couples are also put to the test in a variety of different challenges and tasks, that are devised to try and test the couples strength. In the end, the last couple standing would be declared the winners of the season and of the cash prize.
