Luong

Luong (Japanese:, Vietnamese: Lương) is a character in The King of Fighters series. She was introduced in The King of Fighters XIV as Gang-il's lover and new member of Team Kim. Her official nickname is "The Enchanting Beauty".

She is voiced by Chika Kino.

Personality
A seductive woman of elegance, Luong likes to "play" with her opponents and feels excited in the heat of battle.

Outside of battle, she shows less of her cold side and rather shows affection towards Gang-il and his star student Kim Kaphwan, much to the latter's dismay given that he's already married with children.

Luong is a sly woman with a secret agenda who is more than willing to deceive her own teammates to reach her goals. She appears to be collaborating with Hein to take down Geese Howard, furthering evident the butler's actual occupation as a secret undercover agent who infiltrate Geese's corporation.

Powers

 * Stretch Limbs - Luong is able to stretch and snap her legs swiftly and at extreme range like a whip, similar to Duo Lon, Jhun Hoon and Ryuji Yamazaki.

Fighting Style
According to the King of Fighters XV announcer Luong fights using Tae Kwon Do. Her style emphasizes lightning fast kicks, agility, flexibility and acrobatics. Showing shades of Jhun Hoon, she can take a ready stance and be able to throw snapping kicks with extreme range and quickness, much like Ryuji Yamazaki with his arms. She is also shown breaking necks, whether from an accurate kick or as part of a standing head scissors grab.
