A new trailer for Solo Leveling on Ice has been released, offering fans a look at the upcoming production led by South Korean figure skater and World silver medallist Cha Junhwan.

The stage adaptation brings the popular Solo Leveling franchise to the ice, with Cha taking on the role of protagonist Sung Jinwoo. The production returns with a refreshed cast after its original run at Mokdong Indoor Ice Rink in Seoul in December 2025.

Joining Cha in the new cast is Kim Yerim as Cha Hae-in, Sung Jinwoo's love interest. Choi Woohyuk plays Yoo Jinho, while South Korean influencer AMY portrays Joohee, one of Jinwoo's longtime friends. Lee Si Hyung will appear as Igris.

The newly released trailer has been shared across the production's official social media channels and has attracted more than 239,000 views on YouTube since its release.

Solo Leveling on Ice is scheduled to return to Mokdong Indoor Ice Rink from August 7 to 17, 2026. During its original production, IKON member Kim Jinhwan starred as Sung Jinwoo.

The ice show is one of several projects expanding the Solo Leveling franchise beyond its webtoon origins. The anime adaptation concluded its second season in 2025, while producers have confirmed a third season for release later this year.

A separate live-action adaptation for Netflix also remains in development, adding another project to the growing franchise.

Solo Leveling follows E-rank hunter Sung Jinwoo, who gains a unique ability to continually level up after surviving a near-death experience. The series has become one of the most recognisable titles in the action fantasy genre through its webtoon and anime adaptations.
