While many fans are eager to see more about the dark warriors in Jinwoo’s new story and the powerful A-rank hunters in Part 2 of Solo Leveling, the enthusiastic viewers may need to brace themselves to witness a confrontation with the A-rank hunters prominently featured.
Alongside the ongoing battle against Baruka, we are introduced to one of Jinwoo’s most formidable dark warriors, in the latest episode of the anime Solo Leveling Season 2, showcasing some of Woo Jinchul’s best moments throughout the series, emphasizing the A-rank hunters’ significant presence in the narrative.
In Episode 2 of Season 2, Solo Leveling showcases Baek Yoonho, the leader of the White Tiger Guild, facing off against Hwang Dongsu, as they journey to South Korea to confront Jinwoo for having killed his younger brother in Part 1.
As Yoonho and Dongsu prepare to engage, Woo Jinchul, the chief inspector of the Korean Hunters Association, intervenes to stop the conflict, preventing Yoonho and Dongsu from resorting to violence. He has shown remarkable strength that leaves a lasting impression, especially in the presence of powerful hunters.

Solo Leveling Season 2 presents the most thrilling moments featuring Woo Jinchul in the series
Despite being primarily a supporting character, Jinchul’s role has become increasingly significant amidst the escalating battles in the Culling. The moments he shares exhibit an essential connection that fans of the manhwa have been eagerly anticipating. Although he may appear infrequently and has a less prominent role in the anime thus far, Woo Jinchul remains a character that fans deeply admire.
It is essential to acknowledge that becoming an A-rank hunter is no small feat, especially when faced with the growing strength of Jinwoo and the overwhelming power of the S-rank hunters, making it incredibly challenging for a hunter like Jinchul to navigate through these powerful adversaries while simultaneously maintaining his own strength. Fortunately, Jinchul continues to leave a strong impression in the latest episodes.

The reason this engagement remains impactful is due to the intense battles with the S-rank hunters, known for their extraordinary capabilities, where only a select few S-rank hunters are deemed national treasures, competing against the entire army of a nation. Although Yoonho and Dongsu may not be at this level, as Jinchul pointed out, both could have caused serious injury to him had they unleashed their full strength.
In such a scenario, it requires not only confidence but also a considerable degree of emotional intelligence to navigate between the two S-rank hunters, just as Jinchul has demonstrated.
Moreover, this scene in the anime is much more engaging than in the manhwa. The anime skillfully edits together the moments of Jinwoo and the battle within the Red Gate, prior to the scene with Jinchul, preventing Yoonho and Dongsu from escalating the conflict, adding a layer of tension to the narrative.
