contents The study of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) at ultra-relativistic energies can be performed in a controlled environment through lepton-hadron deep inelastic scatterings. In such collisions, the high-energy partonic emissions that follow from the ejected hard partons are accurately described by perturbative QCD. However, the lower energy scales at which quarks and gluons experience colour confinement, i.e. hadronization mechanism, fall outside the validity regions for perturbative calculations, requiring phenomenological models tuned to data to describe it. As such, hadronization physics cannot be currently derived from first principles alone. Monte Carlo event generators are useful tools to describe these processes as they simulate both the perturbative and the non-perturbative interactions, with model-dependent energy scales that control parton dynamics. This work employs jets - experimental reconstructions of final-state particles likely to have a common partonic origin - to inspect this transition further. Although originally proposed to circumvent hadronization effects, we show that jets can be utilised as probes of non-perturbative phenomena via their substructure. The charge correlation ratio was recently shown to be sensitive to hadronization effects. Our work further improves this sensitivity to non-perturbative scales by introducing a new selection based on the relative placement of the \textit{resolved SoftDrop splitting} within the clustering tree, defined as the unclustering that resolves the jet's leading charged particles.
