Sung Jin-Woo is a GOAT!!!

Story Review by Ahmad Nash. Images from financerewind.com

Solo Leveling is a Web Novel/Toon series that is based in South Korea. It tells the story of Sung Jin-Woo’s rise from the weakest hunter to the strongest.

In this world, portals also known as dungeons or gates started appearing all around the world. These dungeons connect earth to another world, and inside were monsters one only sees in fantasy. The people who hunt those monsters are called Hunters. The story is told from the perspective of Sung Jin-Woo, a 24-year-old man who became a Hunter to help his mother and sister. But it turns out Sung Jin-Woo is not really cut out for this job because he later became the E-Rank Hunter known as the World's Weakest Hunter. However this didn’t last because once he went into a D-rank dungeon something happened. A double dungeon appears and leads to the deaths of most of his raid team. (A double dungeon is another type of dungeon that appears in one gate). Once the dungeon was cleared, not everyone could get out, one person had to stay behind. Sung Jin-Woo lost his leg so he stayed behind while the remaining people escaped but instead of just dying in the dungeon, something happened to Sung Jin-woo that changed him for the rest of his life.

To find out what happened to him read the Solo Leveling webtoon or the Only I Level up web novel. I personally rate this a 10/10 because I like the character development that happens to Sung Jin-Woo. But honestly everything about this show from the art style to the story really stands out to me. I hope you all enjoy this as much as I did. Enjoy reading!
