Bio: The son of taekwondo master Kim Kaphwan and a skilled practitioner in his own right, Dong Hwan proudly considers himself a taekwondo prodigy. His carefree, happy-go-lucky attitude following the last tournament, however, leads to a harsh reprimand from his father, quickly humbling him. It turns out to be the wake-up call Dong Hwan needs. Determined to one day surpass his father’s mastery of the martial art, the young fighter secretly embarks on his own unique training regime.

The FATAL FURY series debuted in 1991, igniting the fighting game boom of the 1990s that took the industry by storm. GAROU: MARK OF THE WOLVES, released in 1999, has been the most recent installment in the franchise until now. With fan favorites and new characters making an appearance, FATAL FURY returns with a classic battle system evolved for the next generation of fighters.
