Team Kim

Team Kim (''), also called Team Korea Justice in earlier installments, is a reoccurring Team in The King of Fighters series.

=Description= As the name implies, this team is leaded by Kim Kaphwan, a character from Fatal Fury series. Kim earns his own team due to his popularity in his home country, South Korea, and in his series' source. The team's main objective is to publicize its leader's justice ideals and rehabilitate feared criminals across the country. The first team's formations consist of Korean fighters, and they are known as Team Korea Justice. Starting from The King of Fighters XIII, the team is simply known as Team Kim (due to the nationality of the team not being all of Korean fighters).

Kim's main teammates are Chang Koehan and Choi Bounge, two famous outlaws. But the team received several characters over time, starting in The King of Fighters '99. Unlike Kim, the other team's characters are exclusively created for the KOF series. In The King of Fighters Neowave, Jhun Hoon replaces Kim in the leadership of the team.
