8 Cha Hae-In Moments We Want to See in Season 3

This article contains spoilers for Solo Leveling.

Get an official notification for Solo Leveling season 3 would be a dream come true for fans who can't wait to see the story go after Jeju Island. The battle between Jinwoo and the Ant King was a visual feast, but fans have long moved on to the next major story arcs that would not only feature Jinwoo and his shadow army, but also his future wife, Cha Hae-In.

While Solo Leveling put more effort into developing Cha Hae-In's character in its previous seasons, the strongest female S-rank hunter failed to deliver the best moments of her career. To fix that, Solo Leveling Season 3 needs to adapt these Cha Hae-In moments to do her justice.

Solo Leveling Season 3 will reveal a character even more overwhelmed than Sung Jinwoo

Sung Jinwoo is a beloved Solo Leveling character, and he finally got a new, better ending.

Cha Hae-In's application to Jinwoo's guild

Solo Leveling has many guilds based in Korea, where most hunters gather instead of working independently or serving under the Korean Hunters Association. Cha Hae-In is notable for being the second in command of the Hunters Guild, which is widely considered to be the best guild in the country. There, she is well respected by her peers, who look up to her graceful swordsmanship that is unmatched.

Despite this, Cha Hae-In plans to transfer from the Hunters Guild to the Ahjin Guild even if it means she will pay a hefty sum for breaking her hunter contract.

She meets Jinwoo at the Ahjin Guild Office, where she explains her intentions to join. But her impulsive decision puts her in an unexpectedly awkward and embarrassing position after Jinwoo questions her true motives. Instead of taking her seriously, she faced judgment from Jinwoo himself.

Cha Hae-In's first Shadow Exchange experience

Cha Hae-In is one of the few characters in Solo Leveling who knows Sung Jinwoo's ability to extract shadows and command them as servants. However, she is not yet aware of Jinwoo's Shadow Exchange skill, which allows him to switch positions with a specific shadow instantly.

Surprisingly, Jinwoo can be generous enough to show Cha Hae-In the full potential of his Shadow Exchange skill. In Solo Leveling Season 3, Cha Hae-In will experience the Shadow Exchange skill by giving him consent to involve her in a very intimate demonstration. One minute they are inside the Ahjin Guild office, and the next minute they are transported into the gym at KHA. Wait for this moment, because the skinship between Jinwoo and Cha Hae-In is rare!

Cha Hae-In's solo match against Igris

The third season of Solo Leveling is Cha Hae-In's best chance to redeem herself after her near-death experience against the Ant King in season 2. What better way to do this than to fight at least one of Jinwoo's elite shadows in a solo match? Igris, Jinwoo's formidable knight, is a perfect opponent to test Cha Hae-In's true strength as an S-rank.

Fans have seen Cha Hae-In defeat Japanese S-rank hunters on her own, but they haven't seen her in an intense match against one of Jinwoo's shadows. Who will win between Cha Hae-In and Igris? One thing is for sure, Cha Hae-In will not back down anymore. As long as she has a sword in her hand, she will continue to fight with grace.

Cha Hae-In's impulsive confession to Jinwoo

It is an open secret that Cha Hae-In and Sung Jinwoo end up together Solo Leveling. She became Jinwoo's wife and later gave birth to Sung Suho i Solo Leveling Ragnarok. But before she reached this stage, Cha Hae-In gained Jinwoo's trust. Moreover, she also confessed her feelings for her in the most unexpected and nonchalant way possible.

This confession will happen in Solo Leveling Season 3 after Jinwoo stops Cha Hae-In's fight with Beru. When Jinwoo asked about her true intentions in joining the Ahjin Guild, Cha Hae-In boldly confirmed that she likes him. Her answer was a trifle, but that confession made a lasting impact on Jinwoo.

Cha Hae-In's redemption match against Beru

It has always been Cha Hae-In's goal to defeat Beru in a revenge, after she almost died in battle against the Ant King on Jeju Island. The Ant King's shadow is one of the reasons why she continued training to no avail despite knowing that there is a large difference in power between them. After all, Beru can grow stronger with Jinwoo, while Cha Hae-In cannot due to established restrictions in Solo Leveling's power system.

However, Cha Hae-In's upcoming fight with Beru in Solo Leveling Season 3 promises to be different. This time, she refuses to lose without getting a direct hit or a scratch on Beru, especially with Jinwoo watching.

Cha Hae-In's reunion with Min Byung-Gu

As far as we can remember, Cha Hae-In was the last person to interact with Min Byung-Gu before he was released from the effects of the Shadow Extraction skill in Solo Leveling Season 2. He healed Cha Hae-In with his S-rank abilities but also left an urgent message for her to pass on to Jinwoo.

Cha Hae-In has yet to deliver or remember this urgent message, but she will eventually relay it to Jinwoo in Solo Leveling Season 3. Unless the anime cuts the scene, fans will see Cha Hae-In and Min Byung-Gu's brief reunion in what appears to be a dream sequence. The content of the message is related to Jinwoo's power, which may prove to be crucial in his battle with the architect of the double dungeon.

Cha Hae-In and Jinwoo's parking lot meeting

One of the funniest encounters between Cha Hae-In and Jinwoo happens in a parking lot in front of the Ahjin Guild office. But before they met each other, Cha Hae-In was already pissed about the viral selfie involving Jinwoo, Jin-Ho and the beautiful Yoo Soo Hyun. Not to mention, she was obligated to deliver Min Byung-Gu's urgent message about the growing darkness of Jinwoo's powers.

Interestingly, Cha Hae-In can act a bit like a stalker, going back and forth as she plots the best way to catch up with Jinwoo after confessing to him. Before she could even enter the building, Jinwoo surprised her, leaving her momentarily confused. It's a short moment, but it's sweet, so we have to include it on the list.

Cha Hae-In publicly declares Jinwoo as her friend

The showdown between the Architect and Sung Jinwoo is one of the most anticipated fights in Solo Leveling Season 3. This is where Jinwoo receives the Black Heart from Ashborn and kicks the Architect out of overseeing the system, after all. However, one of the best moments of this fight comes from Cha Hae-In and her bold declaration about her relationship with Jinwoo.

When asked by the architect about her relationship with Jinwoo, Cha Hae-In didn't stammer and told the demonic ghost that they were friends. For the first time, someone other than Jin-Ho openly claims his connection to Jinwoo. This moment deserves more attention, as it marked a turning point in Cha Hae-In and Jinwoo's romance.
