Sung Il-Hwan is a character who has quite a bit of acting space in the Solo Leveling manhwa, but his strength really cannot be underestimated. So what kind of background does this man have, and whether his strength can be comparable to the main character Sung Jin-Woo? Please read this article to find out.
Who is Sung Il-Hwan?
Sung Il-Hwan is Sung Jin-Woo's father who has disappeared, leaving him struggling to take care of his seriously ill mother and school-aged younger sister. However, he later found the opportunity to return and help his son in the war between the gods.
Sung Il-Hwan is considered by fans to be one of the strongest hunters in the world of Solo Leveling. The superior skills and strength he possesses are ranked at S-rank, but this standard is not entirely accurate because the power ranking system is based on standards after his disappearance.

The power of Sung Il-Hwan
Sung Il-Hwan was chosen as a vessel by the Ruler (fragment of light), which signified he was one of the strongest hunters in the world. But unfortunately, his mortal body could not withstand such great power, so he had to die in the battle between the gods.
Not stopping there, his tremendous speed also helps him avoid and counterattack storm-like attacks. In his battle with Frost Monarch and Rakan, he was able to weigh both at the same time without being in a weak position. Sung Il-Hwan also possesses invisibility, helping him hide his presence and perfectly camouflage himself into the surrounding environment. This ability helps Mr. Sung avoid many dangers.
Sung Il-Hwan is also known by everyone for his boundless love for his wife and children. He always stands by his relatives in every situation, typically when he does not accept mercy for Hwang Dongsoo - a Korean American and also an S-rank hunter - for trying to kill his son. The feud between the main character and this person comes from Sung Jin-Woo killing Hwang Dongsoo's brother. Although the fault belongs to Hwang Dongsuk, an arrogant person like Dongsoo does not care.

However, that does not mean that Sung Il-Hwan is rigid, on the contrary he is extremely tolerant and generous. During the battle with Hwang Dongsoo, the extremely destructive power between the two S-class hunters always got innocent people caught up and Sung Il-Hwan tried his best to help and save those caught in the crossfire. That's dangerous.
Although the character Sung Il-Hwan only appeared for a short time, he still left a deep impression in the hearts of fans. He is noticed by fans not only because of his outstanding strength but also because of his deep love for his family. It was inevitable that he would disappear and not be able to take care of his wife and children. He was a kind husband and father, willing to sacrifice everything, including himself, to protect his loved ones.
