Kang Mina is reportedly joining the cast of Netflix’s highly anticipated live-action adaptation of Solo Leveling.
According to an exclusive report released by SPOTV News on May 13, Kang Mina recently attended the project’s ceremonial gathering for production success, signaling her participation in the upcoming series.
The drama is based on the globally successful fantasy webtoon, which follows the story of Sung Jinwoo, an E-rank hunter considered the weakest among those protecting humanity from monsters emerging through mysterious gates. After surviving a near-death experience, Sung Jinwoo awakens extraordinary powers and begins his journey toward becoming the world’s strongest hunter.
The live-action adaptation has already attracted massive international attention due to the original webtoon’s enormous popularity. The series reportedly accumulated over 14.3 billion global views on KakaoPage and later expanded into a hit anime adaptation that achieved major international recognition.
Byeon Woo Seok was previously confirmed to lead the series as Sung Jinwoo, while reports also revealed that Han So Hee is expected to portray Cha Haein, one of the franchise’s most beloved characters.
Attention is now turning toward what role Kang Mina will take in the adaptation. Over the past few years, Kang Mina has steadily expanded her acting career through various genres. She previously appeared in the fantasy drama Twelve and recently drew attention for her intense villain performance as Im Nari in the Netflix series Girigo.
The actress is also preparing to greet viewers again through the upcoming tvN drama Tomorrow, Again at Work!, scheduled to premiere on June 13.
Netflix’s Solo Leveling will be directed by Lee Hae Jun and Kim Byung Seo, with production handled by Kakao Entertainment and Sanai Pictures.
With its star-powered lineup and globally recognized source material, the series is already shaping up to be one of Netflix’s biggest Korean productions in development.
