  • Magnificent Bastard: Kong is a deaf-mute hitman who uses his disability to block out all sounds that could distract him during his hits. Once a kid bullied for his deafness, Kong rose to become a skilled assassin, revered for his efficiency and loyalty. After his friend and mentor Joe is killed by the Hong Kong mafia, Kong accepts an offer to kill the murderers, taking them all out efficiently, even killing the leader before he could pull out a gun. Outmaneuvering a client's attempt to kill him, even though it leads to the death of Joe's girlfriend Aom, Kong tracks down the mob and wipes them all out, and when surrounded by the police with the mob's boss in hand, he chooses to kill himself by shooting himself in the head, making sure the boss's head is next to his so that he'll die too.
