The Netflix series "Solo Leveling" has officially announced the additional casting of Han So-hee, Kang Yoo-seok, Sung Joon, Lee Sung-min, and Jung Ji-hoon, following Byeon Woo-seok, who had already thrilled fans around the world.

"Solo Leveling" is a Netflix series that depicts the story of Sung Jin-woo, an "E-rank Hunter" considered the weakest among the "Hunters" who protect the real world from monsters beyond the gates, as he awakens in the midst of a life-threatening crisis and levels up to become the "strongest Hunter" capable of saving the world.
