This article contains major spoilers from the Solo Leveling manhwa.

Summary

  • Sung Jin-Ah's life will be in danger in Solo Leveling Season 3 due to a dungeon break incident at her school.
  • Jin-Woo will go to great lengths to protect his sister and mother after the traumatic event.
  • The incident will be a turning point, bringing Jin-Woo closer to the truth about his powers and the world's balance.

Solo Leveling season 3 is expected to surpass the intensity of the second season. With more story arcs left unadapted from the manhwa, both familiar and new characters are likely to take on important roles in the plot. In particular, Jin-Woo's sister, Sung Jin-Ah, would take on a more serious yet dangerous role that could change her life in Solo Leveling season 3.

In addition to Jin-Ah, Cha Hae-In is also expected to have more screentime in Solo Leveling season 3, given her eventual romance with Jin-Woo. While these characters take center stage because of their close ties with Korea’s strongest hunter, other elite hunters like Baek Yoon-Ho and Lim Tae-Gyu are expected to lie low until they return to the battlefield to face the wrath of the Monarchs.

Solo Leveling Season 3 Could Put Sung Jin-Ah's Life at Risk

She’s Not Safe at All

Sung Jin-Ah makes her debut early in Solo Leveling, specifically during the D-rank Dungeon arc. As Sung Jin-Woo's younger sister, she worries a lot about her weak but strong-willed E-rank brother. Her anxiousness over Jin-Woo's safety in the dungeon even convinces her to consider dropping out of school to find work and earn money just to make sure her brother’s life never gets in danger again.

Throughout the first two seasons of Solo Leveling, Jin-Ah only played a supporting or background role. Yet still, her presence was meaningful, considering she’s one of the most important people in Jin-Woo's life, someone who keeps him going. She also serves as a key figure in preserving Jin-Woo's humanity, especially his emotions. But as much as fans want to see Jin-Ah awaken as a hunter, that’s not going to happen both in the anime and the manhwa.

"The weather's bad. I wonder if Jin-Ah brought her umbrella"—Sung Jin-Woo

Despite not being involved in the hunter world, Jin-Ah is not exactly safe from harm. Even if her brother is the great Sung Jin-Woo, who cleared the Jeju Island gate alone, Jin-Ah's life will be in danger in Solo Leveling season 3 based on the events of the manhwa. The unfortunate incident will begin in chapter 116, in the middle of the Ahjin Guild arc, when a dungeon break happens in one of the classrooms of her school.

An Unexpected Dungeon Break Will Happen Inside Jin-Ah's School

What Will Happen to Jin-Ah Based on the Manhwa?

Of all the characters who will be in danger in Solo Leveling, Jin-Ah, alongside Han Song-Yi and the rest of the students, will experience the true horrors brought about by a dungeon break. Of course, this incident will not sit well with Jin-Woo, who will go out of his way to rescue his sister and inflict severe punishment on the foolish dungeon boss who dares to harm her.

The dungeon break containing the great orc warriors led by Guroktaru, the chieftain of the Red Blade Tribe, is expected to appear in Solo Leveling season 3. If the anime stays faithful to the manhwa, Guroktaru and his warriors will claim many lives while Jin-Woo is occupied helping the Knights Guild clear an A-rank gate. Fortunately, three high orc warriors are hiding behind Jin-Ah's shadow, which will help buy Jin-Woo time before it's too late.

"Kaisel, to my sister! Full speed!"—Sung Jin-Woo

Before Jin-Woo can kill Guroktaru, the chieftain will be able to lay his hands on Jin-Ah and scar her for life. Naturally, this incident will instantly anger Jin-Woo above all else, and his arrival on the scene will scare Guroktaru and his tribe until they shiver and tremble in fear.

How Would This Incident Change Jin-Ah in Season 3?

The Dungeon Break’s Impact

Based on the manhwa, Sung Jin-Ah's cheerful and easy-going personality would be affected by the traumatizing events of the dungeon break. She would hide in her room, worrying about Jin-Woo's safety, in contrast to her former self, who was full of joy and positive energy despite their situation. This would worry Jin-Woo, making him more sensitive to how his actions and decisions in the future would affect his family.

Moreover, Jin-Woo would also go above and beyond to ensure that Jin-Ah’s and his mother’s lives would never be in danger again. Instead of assigning a high orc warrior to watch over his family, Jin-Woo would command Igris and later, Beru, to look after them. This decision would bring him peace while he deals with the alarming dungeon break in Japan.

"It's alright now. Sorry I'm late"—Sung Jin-Woo to Jin-Ah

This incident involving Jin-Woo's sister will be a turning point in Solo Leveling. Not only will it bring Jin-Woo closer to the truth of his powers, but also to the truth about the Monarchs and the Rulers and the roles they play in the balance of the world. For now, fans should stay tuned for more developments as updates about Solo Leveling season 3 are announced!
