2d char vector printing spaces when printing second column

Here I have a 2d vector of char -

std::vector<std::vector<char>> solution = {
 {"O","1"}, 
 {"T","0"}, 
 {"W","9"}, 
 {"E","5"}, 
 {"N","4"}
};

Printing anything from first column - prints fine.

cout << "In main - " << solution [ 1 ] [ 0 ]; // Prints T

But when I try to access element of second column.

cout << "In main - " << solution [ 1 ] [ 1 ]; // Prints blank space - I can't seem to understand why's the case.

After quiet amount of searching I tried by putting single quotes around every element.

std::vector<std::vector<char>> solution = {
  {'O','1'}, 
  {'T','0'}, 
  {'W','9'}, 
  {'E','5'}, 
  {'N','4'}
};

It works fine in this case.

cout << "In main - " << solution [ 1 ] [ 1 ]; // Gives me 0 in this case.

Now why is it that I'm getting blank spaces when accessing second column in "" double quotes scene.
