“I also faced a lot of ridicule”: Solo Leveling’s Aleks Le Became the Real-Life Sung Jinwoo After Unnecessarily Facing Backlash for Being a Younger Voice Actor
Aleks Le, Sung Jin-woo’s English voice actor, shared his opinion of Solo Leveling‘s isekai theme. He added:
I think the reason the panic for this anime is so much more, as opposed to other anime, especially isekai is that, instead of entering a world that is fantastical and magical, it is still our boring, plain, dry world, butwith even more danger now. Imagine you have to go to work, and you might lose your job, but you also might die today. It’s a very real fear that we have to capture, and it’s very interesting to see all these dungeon elements, and it’s serious, like if a train ran you over, so you’ve got to be careful.
Unlike most isekai anime that follows a protagonist’s journey in a completely new world,Solo Levelingintroduces groundbreaking concepts like dungeons and monsters within the main character’s own world, creating a unique premise that has captivated many anime viewers, including Aleks Le.
