Hunters are graded by their innate abilities and thus are stuck in their ranks for life. Or so they thought. The story centers on Sung Jinwoo, who is described as a “weak" E-rank hunter at the beginning of the story, but who climbs his way up the ranks after gaining extraordinary powers following a near-death experience.

Netflix is producing a live-action series adaptation of the global phenomenon “Solo Leveling,” with rising star Byeon Woo-seok attached to lead the project as protagonist Sung Jinwoo. The series is based on the record-breaking webtoon that has amassed 14.

While Solo Leveling season 3 is still way off, Netflix has announced it's doing a live-action adaptation of the already iconic anime.
