Solo Leveling Author Reveals Why Sung Jinwoo Didn’t Reach Jeju Island Sooner

by

Summary

  • Sung Jinwoo’s delay in reaching Jeju Island was due to the delay in the broadcast feed, preventing quick action.
  • Sung Jinwoo prioritizes family, staying back with his mother instead of joining the raid immediately.
  • In the upcoming episode, Sung Jinwoo will face the black ant on Jeju Island, aiming to stop their advance and heal injured Korean Hunters.

The recent installment of “Solo Leveling” has sparked a lot of discussion among its audience. Some marveled at the strength displayed by the black ant character, while others were taken aback by revelations concerning the Japanese Hunters. Yet, the most debated topic was why didn’t Jinwoo decide to go to Jeju Island earlier?

If our protagonist had arrived at the island slightly sooner, he might have averted Min Byung-gyu’s demise. Fortunately, Chugong’s response shed light on the situation. He clarified that Shadows are unable to speak, explaining why Sung Jinwoo couldn’t communicate with them.

Why Sung Jinwoo Didn’t Reach The Island Earlier

  • Sung Jinwoo’s Shadows cannot communicate with him
  • The broadcast had a delay

The protagonist linked the Shadows with the Hunters and closely watched the transmission. Unfortunately, there was a delay in this broadcast, making it not a live feed. As a result, Sung Jinwoo found himself unable to respond promptly.

The author further explained why Sung Jinwoo chose to remain behind instead of joining the island expedition with the rest of his team. It was emphasized that family holds significant value for Sung Jinwoo. His mother, who had tragically lost her spouse due to a dungeon, had not yet recovered from her grief.

During the live broadcast of the raid, Sung Jinwoo found it difficult to join in, as his mother was watching along with him. Moreover, the author pointed out that despite his constant search for chances to advance, Sung Jinwoo chose instead to stay with his mother over any opportunity to level up.

Sung Jinwoo Will Reach Jeju Island In The Next Episode

In episode 12 of Season 2, we find our protagonist Sung Jinwoo journeying to beautiful Jeju Island. Last time we saw him, he employed his Exchange ability, a power that lets him switch spots with his Shadows. Upon reaching Jeju, Jinwoo’s immediate task is to halt the march of the ants that are threatening the island. These relentless creatures won’t rest until they eliminate the remaining Hunters there. Therefore, our hero must act swiftly to eradicate them first.

Jinwoo, named Sung, will additionally provide Korean Hunters with healing elixirs to aid their recovery from grave wounds. The black ant inflicted heavy harm upon them, and without Jinwoo’s assistance, their state might deteriorate further.

At last, it’s my turn to confront the ominous Black Ant, the fiend responsible for the gruesome massacre of top-tier S-rank Hunters on Jeju Island. This upcoming showdown promises to be legendary, and only the victor will walk away from this island unscathed. I can hardly contain my excitement!

Solo Leveling is available to stream on Crunchyroll.
