Who Is Cha Hae In?
Cha Hae In is an S-rank Hunter and the Vice-Guild Master of the Hunter's Guild. She's the third strongest Hunter in Korea after Go Gun Hee and Sung Jin Woo.
While the main story doesn't leave too much room for romance, she's main character Jin Woo's love interest, and the two eventually try to pursue a romantic relationship.
How Old Is Cha Hae In in Solo Leveling? Her Age Explained
At the beginning of Solo Leveling, Cha Hae In is 23 years old. In later chapters, she's probably around 24 or 25.
This would mean that she's around the same age as Jin Woo, who is also in his early to mid-twenties at the start of the series.
Things get a bit more complicated if you consider how Jin Woo defeats the Monarchs at the end of the manhwa.
To get rid of the Monarchs and ensure that they never come back, Jin Woo fights and defeats every single one of them before using the Cup of Reincarnation one last time.
This allows him to go back to a time before the Gates appeared and begin a new timeline, in which the Monarchs never appeared.
As a result, he returns to his world as a teenager and meets a teenage Cha Hae In who never had to become a Hunter.
It's strongly implied that they will be able to continue their romance in a peaceful time. In the new timeline, Cha Hae In is probably around 16 or 17.
Cha Hae In and Sung Jin Woo's continued relationship is confirmed in the sequel Solo Leveling: Ragnarok, where the two are still together and have a son, Sung Su Ho.
By then, Cha Hae In and Jin Woo are most likely between 40 and 45 years old, as the story begins when Su Ho is a young adult.
