Kwan is an anti-heroic football player and Dash's best friend. Like Dash, Kwan bullies Danny around, but acts nicer than most of the other popular kids in Casper High.
Appearance and History
Kwan is a 9th-grader and a member of the football team while picking on Danny and other unpopular students with Dash. In "Lucky in Love", he loses his popularity because Danny starts dating Paulina and there isn't enough room for more members in the popular group. Joining up with Tucker and Sam, Kwan embraces them with happiness, while they don't share the same feelings. Eventually, Star decides to be with him, even if it means sacrificing her popularity, and he regains his dominant position once Danny and Paulina break up.
Finding out Danny's secret identity in "Reality Trip", Kwan and the other popular kids help Danny and his friends escape.
In an Alternate Timeline
It is unknown what job Kwan has, but he is seen in "The Ultimate Enemy" when Dark Danny attacks the future Amity Park with his newly developed Ghostly Wail. Kwan wears a glasses and seemed to be wearing a white lab coat which might hint us that he had become a scientist at the Axion lab but it is never cleared out as well.
Personality and Weakness
Kwan is lightheaded and unusually friendly, still mean enough to bully students and find enjoyment in it, but not nearly as cruel or despicable as Dash. He seems to be more rational than Dash, but when pressured, he almost always gives in to Dash's orders. Kwan has been shown to actually care about Danny and his friends, but he doesn't push it too far for fear of losing his popularity and rank in the in crowd. He can be pretty heartless as well, breaking up with his previous date Valerie when another girl becomes available, and constantly harassing Danny Fenton and, on Dash's request, Tucker Foley.
Trivia
- It could be argued that Kwan is based on Kenny "Kong" McFarlane, a friend of Flash Thompson in Ultimate Spider-Man. In the short-lived animated series The Spectacular Spider-Man, he is of Asian descent and is usually seen wearing his red letterman jacket.
- Kwan has no known last name but since he is an Asian descent, most of his last names could be within the ranges of either Chinese, Japanese, or Korean last name.
- Kwan is similar to Edmund from Hey Arnold! not only being the friendly cheeky lackey of a bully but also having similar face and hairstyle. Kwan is also similar to Lube from CatDog in terms of friendliness.
