In the Solo Leveling anime, Sung Jin-Woo’s rise from the weakest hunter to a top-tier hunter is not only marked by the monsters he kills in the dungeons but also by the humans he is forced to kill along the way. During dungeon raids in the Solo Leveling series, betrayal is common, and most times, the strong always prey on the weak without hesitation. For Jin-Woo, killing humans when the system forces him to do so was not a choice he made lightly. However, in the series, when the decision is to choose between himself and any deranged hunter, he always chooses himself.

Hwang Dongsuk’s Group
The Deadly Set-Up In The Dungeon
Close
- Season 1, episode 6
In the series, Hwang Dongsuk’s group made the mistake of underestimating Jin-Woo, believing him to be nothing more than an expendable weakling. Their setup inside the C-rank dungeon should have been a death sentence for Jin-Woo, but instead, it became the stage for their execution. Dongsuk group are C-rank hunters who deliberately invite Jin-Woo and another low-rank hunter, Joon Jinho, to join them under the pretense of needing support. In reality, Jin-Woo and Jinho were nothing more than pawns to help them clear the dungeon and keep the essence stones for themselves. As the eight hunters proceeded into the dungeon, they fought with small-fry beasts until they found the boss’s cave. When Dongsuk and his party realize most of the essence stones lie in the boss’s cave, they seal off the cave exit to ensure Jin-Woo and Jinho do not escape. They planned to hurl out the essence stones from another exit as the boss of the dungeon feasts on Jin-Woo and Jinho. After all, whatever happens in the dungeon stays there, so no one will ever find out about their atrocities.
Moreover, after Jin-Woo defeated the spider boss in the dungeon, Dongsuk and his party left their hiding to finish them off. Since Jin-Woo and Jinho are low-rank hunters, they pose no threat. Jin-Woo’s leveling system sees Dongsuk’s party as a hindrance and forces Jin-Woo to kill them. In this way, Jin-woo had no choice but to kill them to level up, but there is a high probability that Jin-Woo would have just hurt them so he and Jinho could leave the dungeon. The system, however, upgraded Jin-woo to a bloodthirsty maniac, and as Dongsuk’s men rushed at him, expecting an easy kill, Jin-Woo moved faster than they could react and killed them all. After everything, Jin-Woo and Jinho were the last men standing.

The father of the daughter the prisoners killed begs Taeshik to kill them to avenge his daughter’s death. However, Taeshik is just a psychopath who enjoys killing. In the cause of killing these prisoners, Taeshik was found out by two other hunters, but he also killed them to cover up his crime.

Kim Chul
The Ice Region Battle
Close
- Season 2, Epsiode 2
Jin-Woo went on a dungeon raid with Kim Chul, an A-rank hunter, and eight other hunters. The simple raid turned dangerous when the C-rank dungeon turned into a red gate. Red Gates represents a death sentence for any hunter unlucky enough to get trapped inside. Unlike the regular gates, which are predictable, red gates are a one-way prison where, once a hunter steps inside, the exit only disappears until the dungeon is cleared. Jin-Woo and the others find themselves in the Ice Elves and Ice Bears region, allowing him to level up. However, Kim Chul divides the group into two, keeping the strong members with him and the weaker members with Jin-Woo.
During the raid, the ice elves easily killed all the hunters with Kim Chul, and he fled the scene in fear. As Kim Chul scampered through the forest, he found the other hunters with Jin-Woo hale and hearty, which made him angry. Hence, he blamed his defeat on a member of Jin-Woo’s team for keeping equipment (tent, food, and clothing) to themselves while his party died unjustly. At this moment, Jin-Woo was already facing off against ice elves and called out his shadow hunters to help in the battle. Kim Chul blamed Jin-Woo for his misfortune and planned to kill him. As the battle against the elves raged on, Kim Chul found an opening to kill Jin-Woo, but the moment he let his guard down, Igris’s spear impaled him through the chest. His last expression was pure terror and regret, realizing too late that his cowardice had led him to a worse fate. Jin-Woo activated his necromancer ability and raised him as a shadow soldier to serve him forever.
