Korea's Strangest Team

 

Team Story :

        Chang and Choi have suffered like no one in the last two years.  Both

prefer to be in prison rather than continue training with Kim.  "That lunatic

never lets us rest.  Day after day, we do nothing but train.  I hope that

this will be over soon."  Suddenly, Kim arrives and tells them about the

invitation to the tournament and says, "This will be our last tournament

together.  We have been training very hard and this year, we will show them

the power of Tae Kwon Do.  I hope that doesn't make you feel bad to know that

when the tournament is over, we will separate."  (Of course not!  That news

makes them very happy...and makes Kim wonder.)

 

KIM KAP HWAN

Original Game : Fatal Fury 2

Other Games : Fatal Fury Special, Real Bout, KoF series, Samurai Shodown 2

Place of Birth : Korea

Heritage : Korean

Fighting Style : Tae Kwon Do

Age : 30

Height : 176 cm

Weight : 78 kg

Background Info :  Out to show the world justice, the Korean way, Kim

recruits two former convicts and trains them for the tournaments.  After his

sons received the invitation for the KoF'94 tournament, he was stunned to

learn that it required a team of three members.  However, his sons had been

watching television at the time, and reports of a Korean, "Jack the Ripper"

and a ball and chain bearing convict had just escaped from prison.  Of course

his first thoughts were to improve their much lacking skills and train them

on his quest for Korean justice!  Much to their reluctance, Kim (ever so

forcefully) recruited them and brought them into his home...much to the

dismay of his wife and kids.  His championship Tae Kwon Do skills are

unmatched.  He is a good friend of Terry Bogard, and looks forward to

fighting him in the tournament.  Of course Joe Higashi believes that he's the

champ, and he has to be defeated first!!!  He's looking to show his sons that

his father can fight the best.  In the '95 tournament, he further improved

his teammates' skills.  And after they almost ran away, they have now earned

their uniforms in the '96 tournament.

into his home to train along with Chang.  Unconvinced of Kim's abilities, he

challenged the Tae Kwon Do master and received a painful proof (as did Chang

who has no idea why he was beat up for Choi's defiance).  Now he (unwilling-

ly) joins Kim's crusade...
