Aleks Le, a renowned voice actor who voicesSung Jinwooin the English-language version, recently spoke out against the threat comments on hisTikTok account. The voice actor revealed how he got thousands of threatening messages from Solo Leveling viewers, bullying him to do the “arise” scene “correctly”. He also showed some of the actual comments sent by fans and expressed his feeling about this matter.
Le clarified that while he understood the sentiment of fans behind the famous “Arise” scene, sending the voice actor threats is not the way to go about it. He was nervous about the highly anticipated scene too. The comments directed towards Le were hurtful and offensive which is why he saw it prudent to publicly speak up against it.
In the video, the voice actor also jokingly said that if viewers kept sending him such offensive comments, he’d change the “arise” line to something different, like “wakey wakey”, “get up buddy”, and “it’s time for school”.
Le made the video two weeks beforeEpisode 12which makes it clear how long some viewers have been terrorizing him on the internet. He asked fans not to overhype themselves and enjoy the anime the way it should be. Le also revealed how he coughed up blood in the next morning after dubbing forEpisode 11.
