Description
Hang Zang-Ching was born on March 16, 1966, in Shanghai, China, into a family of doctors. Despite achieving excellent academic grades, he developed a significant complex about his weight. This insecurity crystallized when he pursued a career as a pop idol only to face rejection due to his appearance. The experience fueled his desire for a world where physical appearance held no importance, driving him to join Asakura Hao's cause.
While visiting a zoo, he encountered the spirit of Shion-Shion, a giant panda killed after an escape attempt. The two bonded over their shared misfortunes—Shion-Shion's lack of freedom despite popularity and Hang's freedom without acceptance. Shion-Shion became his guardian ghost, with Hang using a gong, the panda's favorite toy, as his spiritual medium. His documented furyoku level was 7,000.
As a member of Hao's Team "Tsuki-Gumi," Hang participated in the Shaman Fight tournament. He displayed unwavering loyalty to Hao, often confronting opposing shamans like Team "Funbari Onsen." During one skirmish, Tao Ren broke his signature round sunglasses, which he later replaced with angular-framed ones. However, doubts about Hao's methods surfaced among his teammates. While en route to intercept human warships, Hang expressed fear when Mohamed Tabarsi and Peyote Díaz openly questioned Hao's motives. Peyote abruptly killed Hang using his Over Soul "Grande Fantasma" during this dissent.
Following Hao's ascension as Shaman King, Hang was revived alongside other deceased followers, excluding Peyote and Mohamed due to their bodies' extensive damage. He boarded the Soul Train within the Great Spirit, joining others in requesting Hao revive all those killed during his campaign.
After the tournament's conclusion, Hang experienced burnout and lack of direction. Several years later, Tao Ren recruited him, alongside Bill Burton and Brocken Meyer, to work for the Leidi Group, an electronics manufacturing conglomerate. Hang rose through the company ranks, eventually becoming a personal bodyguard for Ren, his wife Jun, and their son Men. In this role, he was present during the attack by Kamogawa Yohsuke, Black Maiden, and Dong Yonhon that resulted in Jeanne's death. Hang, Bill, and Brocken observed Ren comforting Men afterward before resuming their duties, later discussing potential repercussions within the Tao family.
