Kang "King Kang" Gil-Dong

**Kang Gil-Dong aka "King Kang"**

**Player:** Bacarruda

Sometime petty crook, Sometime Korean independence fighter, sometime spy. Orphaned before he ever really knew his parents, he more than his share of spent hungry days and cold nights on the streets of Seoul. For most of his life, he made his way in the world on the grimy edges of society. When his hands were too big to pick pockets, they were big enough to clutch a Mauser. Broken windows, bloody noses, and black eyes punctuated Kang's early life. We he wasn't scrapping with street hoods, he was chucking hand grenades into police stations or running from the kenpeitai.

Along the way, he picked up some nasty scars and more than one price on his head. It seems the new Korean government doesn't have much use for street hoods like him, now that the Japanese are gone. He's been hopping from hideout to hideout, but the cops are hot on his tail. And if they don't get him, the jopok will...

So, after his last hideout in Seoul went up in flames, he stowed away on a cattleboat and got out of town. He's lived through enough cold winters and hungry nights for one lifetime and he has no desire to do that again. Decades of living on the streets and killing to earn a living have made him a hardened, jaded fighter with a keen sense of survival. He's looking for a fistful of dollars and isn't afraid to use a knuckleduster, a tommy gun, or plain old thievery to get it.
