Hailing from Korea, Kang is man who trained
himself to be wrestler to make use of his giant stature. When he was a kid,
people used to make fun of him for being so big... Now a wrestler, he makes
fun of people for being so small. He
soon gained fame in the fighting and wrestling circuits due to his surprising
agility. During one of his tours to California, he assisted a fight and met Mr.
Jones. They became fast friends despite the language barrier between them.
He became very successful as a wrestler,
but also had other interests...
Kang set out to pursue his real dream of becoming an action film-maker. He
contacted his old friend Mr. Jones and established a company in America. He
met up with Mr. Jones while he was shooting his last film, "Big Trouble
in Groovy China", and Kang convinces him to sign up for his film. They
both agree to take down the "Black Dragon" so they can get
inspiration for their first film together.

Kang is just
hilarious. Pound for pound, he just might be the fattest fighting
game character in existence. Just check out that gut! Daaamn! Ironically
enough, he's kind of a "small" guy (especially in gameplay compared to
other characters)... which might be on purpose, since Korean pro-wrestlers
aren't usually known for being huge dudes. As funny as it is that he's a small
fat guy, I think he'd be more visually impressive and more memorable if he was
BIGGER... closer to The Blob from X-Men, for example. In any case, Kang's
proportions and body type are unique to the fighting game world.
That said, Kang is one the most charismatic characters of Rage of the Dragons,
if you ask me. Kang also actually retains a lot of his charisma during his
animations and most of his moveset. His fighting
style could've been fleshed out a lot more, but as the prominent "pro wrestler" of ROTD,
he's an original design, at least... not to mention solid natural comic
relief.
