After completing the Class Change Quest and becoming the Monarch of Shadows, Sung Jin-woo continues to explore his new powers. He has the ability to summon and control defeated spirits, turning them into loyal soldiers under his command. Meanwhile, the world of hunters begins to take notice of his sudden rise as an unknown hunter with extraordinary power.
Episode 1 of Solo Leveling Season 2: Shadow Hunters begins with Sung Jin-woo, who is resting at home after completing his class change mission. His younger sister, Jin-Ah, calls to remind him about the parent-teacher conference at her school. Jin-woo agrees to attend and then goes to Jin-Ah's school with an extremely handsome and mature appearance. There, he meets her homeroom teacher and has a conversation about his sister's academic situation. After the meeting, Jin-woo receives information about a new dungeon and brings Song-Yi, Jin-Ah's friend, to participate as instructed by the teacher.
In this dungeon, Jin-woo activated the skill The One Who Overcame Adversity and Wolf Assassin to deal with the giant white ice bears and protect his small group. Jin-woo leveled up and the red gate gave him more experience points. Outside, the administrators who couldn't enter the red gate were very worried about the group, and also couldn't determine if Jin-woo's ability was enough to protect the group.
Jin-woo continues to search for the white bear's lair and summons the dark army to destroy them. This is the first mission of the army and the demon general Igris after being captured.
At the end of episode 1 of Solo Leveling Season 2: Shadow Hunters, an army of ice elves with incredible power appeared.
Episode 2: Mystery of the Red Gate
The ice goblin army appeared and their leader. Surprisingly, Jin-woo was able to understand their language and communicate with them. The leader revealed that there was always a voice telling him to kill humans in his head, but when he stood in front of Jin-woo, he couldn't hear anything. Jin-woo understood that everything was controlled by the system.
Next was the battle between Jin-woo and the ice goblin. The goblin king was very strong and he and his army did not fight easily.
The Demon King died and the red gate opened. The people outside were shocked that only the weakest hunters escaped, while the higher level hunters died. The White Tiger Guild Master asked Jin-woo to explain, but Jin-woo coldly said that he should thank him for saving the others and left.
Episode 3: New Allies
During his journey in Solo Leveling Season 2: Shadow Hunter, Jin-woo meets and befriends other hunters, including Yoo Jinho, a young and passionate hunter.

Episode 3 surprised everyone with the appearance of Jin-woo, who went missing 10 years ago and appeared at a prison gate in America. He was locked up because of his mysterious background. An S-class hunter thought he was a monster transformed into a human, he provoked him and led to a fight between the two.
Meanwhile, Jiwoo continues to train in the dungeon to increase his strength. He arrives at the 100-story fiery castle with the mission of collecting 10,000 demon souls. His other goal is to find enough ingredients to create a cure for his mother - the Holy Water of Life.
