The Solo Leveling anime follows the story of the world's weakest Hunter Sung Jin-Woo.

Despite his measly strength, he kept hunting monsters from low-level gates to pay for his mother's medical expenses. One day, after Jin-Woo was left to die after a mission gone wrong, he found himself in a situation to have a second chance at life. After accepting, he found himself awake in a hospital, with all the life-threatening injuries gone.

A mysterious quest screen appeared in front of him and was only visible to him. The quest log on this screen helped Jin-Woo level up and become one of the world's most fearsome Hunters.
