List of KO One charactersThe following is a list of characters of the Taiwanese television series KO One, which aired between November 2013 and April 2013. The Leaders of Zhong Ji Yi Ban (終極一班)Wang Da Dong (汪大東)KO Number: 3rd. Biography: Da Dong is number three on the KO Rank and has the fighting count of 9000. Although Da Dong seems harsh and cold, he is actually a good person at heart and shows his caring side whenever his friends need help. Because of his confidence and stubbornness, Ya Se often calls him "Zi Da Kuang" (自大狂 / Egomaniac).
Da Dong often spends time singing with an underground music band named Dong Cheng Wei (東城衛) to enhance his power.
Da Dong has been in love with a girl named An Qi since he was a kid, but was too shy to reveal it. However, during her time in America, she's written over 500 letters to him, and though he did not respond to any of the letters, he has been secretly collecting and reciting them. The two of them were a couple at a point in the storyline, but eventually broke up due to Da Dong's crush on his teacher and his best friend Xiao Yu's crush on An Qi. And the fact that they were being targeted by a powerful enemy.[1] Specialty: Before revealing his main weapon, he has also been seen using a normal cooking pan to fight ordinary gangsters. Sequels: In K.O.3an Guo (終極三國), Da Dong travels to the Silver Dimension with his friends. While trying his cellphone's camera, he accidentally drops a coin that causes a gigantic rock to fall on Xiu's alternate counterpart, Liu Bei. He then takes Liu Bei back to his dimension for treatment while Xiu is forced to take Liu Bei's place until he recovers from his injuries. Later, Sun Ce, Da Dong's alternate counterpart in the Silver Dimension appears. Alternate counterparts:
Wang Ya Se (王亞瑟)KO Number: 3rd. Biography: Rich, powerful, self-centered, and his concerns are his looks. His name is a Chinese translation of the English name "Arthur". Like Da Dong, he has a 3rd position on the KO Rank, his fighting count being 9000. Because he and Da Dong shared the third position, he joined Zhong Ji Yi Ban intending to challenge him, but before they could fight, they became best buddies.
Most people know him as "Ya Se Wang" (亞瑟王 / King Arthur), his last name switching positions with his first name: but Da Dong often calls him "Zi Lian Kuang" (自戀狂 / Narcissist).
He is the first person to find out that Lei Ke Si is KO 2, although nobody seems to believe him. He has been framed by Lei Ke Si for an assortment of malicious attacks on classmates, and has left the class at a point in the storyline to prove his innocence. When Lei Ke Si finally reveals his identity, he exonerates his name and returns to school.
Ya Se's most notable habit is to quote authors like Shakespeare. His favorite quote being "To be or not to be, that is a question".
Although Ya Se only loves himself, he eventually learns to love others when a girl named Cai Wu Xiong risks her own life to save him. When he finds out that Wu Xiong is aging to death, he forces himself to fall in love with her in order to save her, which he succeeds and learns the true meaning of love - the most precious thing of all.[1] Specialty: His other special ability is his super-speed (an ability that other people can also use), which he indicates is well-known, which probably means that he can run faster than others. Sequels: In K.O.3an Guo (終極三國), Ya Se travels to the Silver Dimension with his friends. While Da Dong is trying out his cellphone's camera, Da Dong accidentally drops a penny that causes a gigantic rock to fall on Xiu's alternate counterpart, Liu Bei. He then takes Liu Bei back to his world for treatment while Xiu takes his role until he recovers from his injuries. Alternate counterpart:
Ding Xiao Yu (丁小雨)KO Number: 4th. Biography: From the beginning, he appeared to be a very quiet and mysterious kid, but after befriending Ya Se and Da Dong, he becomes more open and even starts to smile. He doesn't like violence, but if anyone hits his head, he will definitely fight back. Unlike everybody else, he lives in a tent instead of a real home and has no family of his own.
Xiao Yu is more likely to be found spending time in the music room because he likes to play the piano. His music is so touching that anyone who hears it can be reminded of what it's like to love others.
Xiao Yu carries a cellphone with him, but never gives his number to anyone - including Da Dong and Ya Se. But when he falls in love with Da Dong's girlfriend, An Qi, he gives it to her and tells her to call him whenever she's in need of help. Da Dong eventually finds out that he is in love with An Qi and the three of them become odd against each other, and prefer to rather not talk about their relationship. Their relationship ends with An Qi deciding to return to America. After this, Da Dong and Xiao Yu solve their problem and become friends again. However, Xiao Yu declares that An Qi belongs with Da Dong and not him.[1] Specialty: Xiao Yu can also produce healing factor to speed up the healing process of his injuries. Sequels: In K.O.3an Guo (終極三國), Xiao Yu travels to the Silver Dimension with his friends and meet new friends there. While Da Dong is trying out his cellphone's camera, Da Dong accidentally drops a coin that causes a gigantic rock to fall on Xiu's alternate counterpart, Liu Bei. He then takes Liu Bei back to his dimension for treatment while Xiu takes Liu Bei's role until he recovers from his injuries. Alternate counterpart:
Lei Ke Si (雷克斯) / Wu Shi Duo (武屍奪)KO Number: 2nd. Biography: In school, he is known as Da Dong's brain. His name is a Chinese translation of the English name "Lex".
Because of his disguise as a weak kid with good intentions, nobody knows Lei Ke Si is actually KO 2 - the next strongest fighter on the KO Rank, and his fighting count being 10000.
When An Qi tells him why she likes Da Dong, his anger grows to a maximum point and he decides to take full action in taking out Da Dong, including hurting An Qi and revealing his true identity to the world. The two battle each other at that point, but Da Dong allows him to win. When he asks why he did it, Da Dong replies it is because he still considers him as his best friend. After being reminded of how pure Da Dong's friendship with him really is, they solve all of the anger and hatred he has had over the years and the two become friends again.
Some time after he left the gang to start over, he becomes captured by their enemy Hei Long and converted into a "Wu Shi" (武屍) named "Duo" (奪), and is sent on a mission to kill Da Dong. However, his evil powers are subdued by a mysterious man midway through the show, allowing him to return to Da Dong as a friend. In the end, he helps the others fight against Hei Long and succeeds, but loses his powers in the process.[1] Specialty: Sequel: In K.O.3an Guo (終極三國), Lei Ke Si is not going to the Silver Dimension. But his alternate counterpart is Sima Yi (司馬懿) in the Silver Dimension. Alternate counterpart:
The other Students of Zhong Ji Yi Ban (終極一班)Huang An Qi (黃安琪)Age: 18. Biography: She moved to America five years ago, but during that time she has written over five hundred letters to Da Dong - two letters per week. She never got any response from Da Dong for any of her letters, but he has secretly been collecting and memorizing them.
Her love for Da Dong is the reason to why Lei Ke Si holds such anger against Da Dong. When Lei Ke Si finally reveals his identity as KO 2 and gets Da Dong into a hospital, she decides to return to America in order to forget about everything she feels about Da Dong, because she believes it is her love that has caused the rivalry between him and his best friend. Da Dong doesn't want her to leave, and with a little nudge from Xiao Yu, he finally finds the courage to reveal how he truly feels about her. They become a couple since then, but when Tian Xin, their homeroom teacher, begins to date a college student, Da Dong starts acting weird and making trouble with the gang. Ever since then, their relationship becomes unstable and unclear, because she can tell that he is in love with their teacher as well and his new best friend Xiao Yu being in love with her.
After causing another rivalry between Xiao Yu and Da Dong and knowing that there is something strange going on between the KO fighters and a mysterious evil force, she returns to America and resumes to writing letters to Da Dong. And though she may never see Da Dong or Xiao Yu again, she is glad to have been with both of them because the memories are enough for her to have for the rest of her life to think about. Sha Jie (煞姊)KO Number: 13th. Biography: Sha Jie is the leader in the girl-gang of the class. For a girl, she is extremely mean and fierce.
She has been in love with Da Dong since before the start of the series, but he hasn't shown any sign of liking her back, at all. Seeing Da Dong and An Qi together makes her angry and she leaves the school along with the show and is never seen again, though she is sometimes mentioned by Jin Bao San. Because of her fondness of Da Dong, she often shows dislike to Wang Ya Se (王亞瑟).[1] Specialty: Sequel: Alternate counterpart:
Sha Jie's status as KO 13, would seem that she is the only person whose power is stronger than her Iron Dimension counterpart's. Cai Wu Xiong (蔡五熊)KO Number: 10th. Biography: She is the younger sister of Cai Yun Han - KO 7. Wu Xiong grew up in the jungle with gorillas, and communicates in a non-human language. Wu Xiong returned to her family a year before her appearance in the show. Her name is referred to as "five bears," because she killed five bears when she was still a newly born baby and was therefore named "Wu Xiong" (五熊), meaning five bears in translation. Because of her gorilla-like appearance and behavior, everyone in class refer to her as "Jin Gang Mei Mei" (金剛妹妹 / Little King Kong Sister).
In the initial episodes that she appeared in, she had long hair that covers her face and wore clothes that made her look like a gorilla. But later on, she changed her image when Ya Se reminded her that she is living in a human society.
She is the only notable person to have read the entire series of "Jin Bi Dian Long" (金筆點龍 / The Golden Pen Touches The Dragon) and therefore knows something about the future, but does not want to reveal it because she was afraid of reprisals.
She falls in love with Ya Se (亞瑟) the first time she meets him, mainly because she has known that he is the man for her since she was three years old. Although Ya Se didn't like her at first, Wu Xiong eventually succeeds in capturing his heart when she uses her "Xiong Zhu" (熊珠 / Bear Pearl) to save him and almost died because of losing it. According to her future knowledge, their love won't last long, but will be beautiful while it does. However, we do not know if this actually will happen or if he will lose his internal fight with the Demon Sword or if he wasn't going to survive the battle against Hei Long.[1] Specialty: Wu Xiong also has some sort of telepathic abilities, as she can always tell what Ya Se needs or wants without saying it. Sequels: In K.O.3an Guo (終極三國), Wu Xiong is revealed to have an alternate counterpart in the Silver Dimension named Xiao Qiao. Unlike Wu Xiong, she doesn't seem to possess any special capabilities, and Xiao Qiao is younger sister of Da Qiao. Alternate counterpart:
Cai Yun Han (蔡雲寒)KO Number: 7th. Biography: Cai Yun Han is the elder sister of Cai Wu Xiong. Since she is the only one that understands her sister's language, she serves as interpreter for the rest of the class. They transferred to Zhong Ji Yi Ban about a year after her sister returned to the family. Because her parents died when she was young, she has been independent and does her best to take care of her sister, whom she is also very protective of. Because of her sister's gorilla-like appearance and behavior, Yun Han is nicknamed "Jing Gang Jie Jie" (金剛姊姊 / Big King Kong Sister) based on their bond as blood-related sisters.
She is number 7th on the KO Rank and the only notable female fighter to be listed as one of the Top 10 KO fighters. Her fighting count is 7000. Since Wang Da Dong, Wang Ya Se, Ding Xiao Yu, Lei Ke Si and Ji An are strongest in the class, she becomes the sixth strongest member, but is nonetheless the strongest female member.
She did not like Ya Se initially because he was always rude towards her sister and nicknamed him "Chou Pi Ya Se Wang" (臭屁亚瑟王 / Stinking King Arthur), but that changes when he tries to save Wu Xiong from aging to death by forcing himself to fall in love with her.
Ever since Yun Han found out that Ji An is a demon fighter, she has been falling for him, but because of his cold behavior, the two of them are put in an awkward stage of relationship.[1] Specialty: Sequel: In K.O.3an Guo (終極三國), Cai Yun Han is not going to the Silver Dimension. But her alternate counterpart is Da Qiao in the Silver Dimension, and Da Qiao is elder sister of Xiao Qiao, Wu Xiong's counterpart. Alternate counterpart:
Jin Bao San (金寶三)KO Number: 135th. Biography: His performance and involvement in the class was part of what made the story interesting. He is often thinks he is better than everyone in class and repeatedly attempts to dethrone Da Dong so that he can be the leader of Zhong Ji Yi Ban again. According to himself, he was one of the top ten KO fighters before Da Dong wounded him in a challenge and turned off his powers. However, his stupidity and arrogance seem to be with-born.
When Yun Han whipped him with her weapon, he was forced to reveal his biggest secret: he was in love with Da Dong once.[1] Specialty: Sequels: In K.O.3an Guo (終極三國), Jin Bao San is revealed to have another alternate counterpart in the Silver Dimension named Jiang Gan, who is also class monitor of his class. Alternate counterpart:
Ji An (技安)Weapon/Skill: Demon Ripping Axe (拔魔斬) Biography:
In the initial episodes, he seems like a playful school boy who hangs out with Jin Bao San's "gang" and doesn't seem to have much fighting skills. But as the story progresses, his attitude and personality suddenly change, making him a more serious character. When Ya Se begins to get possessed by the sword demon, Ji An reveals himself as a "Ba Mo Zhan Shi" (拔魔戰士 / Demon Fighter), whose mission is to kill evil whenever it surfaces.
Because he was taught never to let his feelings cloud his judgment and affect the outcome of his mission, his sharp focus to kill the evil that lurks inside of Ya Se's body often puts his loyalty to Da Dong on test. Other than killing evils, he declares protecting the class as his second mission. Since his path is different, his name does not exist amongst the KO Ranked fighters.
Ever since Cai Yun Han found out that he was a demon fighter, she has been falling for him, but his cold behavior put them in an awkward stage of relationship. But he does not deny that he has feelings to Yun Han himself.[1] Specialty: He can also suppress evil essences with his power, but that method only lasts temporarily and once the power wears off, the evil essences become ten times stronger than they were before. Before Ji An revealed the axe, he wielded another weapon - a sword made of bamboo used for kendo training. It disappeared after Ji An revealed his true identity. Sha Yu (鯊魚)Status: Alive.

After everything that happened, Shao Zhong decides to return to America with his mother and the two separate from there.
