Solo Leveling fans, get ready, Character is going to be seen, after just one word uttered from whose mouth even the dead wake up.
Yes, I’m talking about Sung Jin-Woo. This is the character who gave a different level of recognition to Korean Manga.
Today, we will talk about the character of Sung Jin-Woo. The way author Chugong has written the character of Sung Jin-Woo—not like Japanese manga, in which there are some philosophical lines, which the reader has to use his brain a bit to understand—but in the case of Solo Leveling, it is not needed at all.
This is the writing style, or should I say, the beauty of author Chugong’s writing that everyone can feel the character of Sung Jin-Woo.
This is the story of a character when there was a time when no one had any expectations from him. He was a burden. And this journey starts from there and reaches the level when this character becomes everyone's expectations.
The situation in which Sung Jin-Woo's character was - earlier he was the weakest hunter in the world. No one knows about his father, his mother is ill, admitted in the hospital, his sister is very young.
I know, you can tell by looking at this that she is not very young, but if you look at the responsibilities of the house, she is very young in that situation. And who was handling all this in this situation? Sung Jin-Woo.
If we look at the beginning episodes, you will notice that he was trying to handle all these things - and that too when he is the weakest hunter in this world.
For him, even killing a goblin was a big thing. He could kill it with great difficulty. In this situation, 99% people used to ignore him. On the other hand, the 1% people—or say 0.01%—took pity on him and cared for him a little.
However, I like this girl a lot, the way Sung Jin-Woo's character was at that time—the world's weakest hunter—she liked him in that condition itself. She used to heal him etc.
But then, when he comes back to life after death, he gets the system. The guy was at zero level. But then he progresses by working hard, gradually levels up.
Actually this system wanted him to become strong. And Sung Jin-Woo gradually becomes strong.
These lines of Sung in season one:"I'll fill this world with fear. If you weren't expecting me to murder my enemy..."
It is a very impactful line, which is applicable in that world as well as our world.
Sung Jin-Woo's growth from zero to a high level, where he becomes an overpowered character, represents the fact that when you or I work hard to achieve something, to achieve our goal, and put in our all, then gradually the skills that develop within us related to the thing for which we are working so hard – this represents that thing.
And, we get that result too.
There are many people who don't watch Solo Leveling, or don't watch it seriously, and they really think that Sung Jin-Woo is an overpowered character, who became very overpowered after getting the system.
While this scene is not like that at all.
This guy keeps progressing by working hard from level zero. And after working very hard, he became so powerful.
Many strong opponents come in front of him. And there are also opponents who were much more powerful than him at that time.
When this guy realizes that this person in front of him is much more powerful than me, he runs away from there.
Because he has understood that if I go into this situation, I will die again. And he doesn't have to die again.
The guy comes back and works hard again, levels up, and then goes and clears the stage.
This shows that Sung Jin-Woo's character is not a stupid character. He knows how to make his decisions after thinking carefully.
To be honest, most of the time, his opponent is much more powerful than him in that situation.
Remember the snake opponent in season one? He was more powerful than Sung Jin-Woo in that situation.
But Sung Jin-Woo fights and wins against him, which shows us that this character is not a weak-minded character.
He is a strong-minded character.
The reason why Sung Jin-Woo is the main character of this series is that he was born with a strong mindset. Even though he was the weakest hunter, he still carries the burden of so many responsibilities.
I remember when I was reading his manga, in that situation, when he gradually levels up and becomes very powerful.
And he beats up such hunters who were living for their own benefit, according to their own wishes. They had the power to destroy some countries, and they were running everything according to their will.
And, despite being so powerful, Sung Jin-Woo does not do that.
This guy chooses to protect others because he knows what it means to be weak. Being the weakest hunter taught him that when a person is weak, no one expects anything from him.
People's mindset is such that the weakest, helpless, poor character does not have the right to live.
But 99% of the characters in that world are living for their own benefit. All this does not matter to them.
What matters to them is how they can live their life, how they can have fun.
And if you are one of the most powerful, then everything you say will be accepted.
Sung Jin-Woo's character also defines this thing: nobody cares how hard you have worked, how much effort you have put in to reach that position.
When you are a powerful person, everyone will have expectations from you.
