—Ching

Ching (칭, Ching) is one of the major characters in the Pucca universe. She is Pucca's best friend, the daughter of Chang, the owner of the Turtle Training Hall, and she trains under her father with Garu, Abyo and Ssoso. Ching practices Jian Swordsmanship.

Appearance[]

Ching is in love with Abyo, who usually doesn't reciprocate; he's usually too infatuated with showing off his martial arts prowess or flirting with other girls to notice her, much to Ching's frustration. In Hottest Fighter Abyo, Abyo saved Ching from a trio of villains. Ching was quickly entranced by Abyo's skill and he became Ching's love interest. As she puts it, everyone in town knows that she is Abyo's girlfriend, except for him. She wishes to marry him someday.

Ching has a pet chicken named Won, who is usually seen sitting on her head. The eggs that Won lays have magical properties, which is shown in A Force of Won. In Cuckoo Love, Won falls in love with a cuckoo bird and briefly leaves Ching. Won’s absence is shown to have a notable weakening effect on Ching, which can only be cured by Won’s return.

In the episode A Better Boyfriend, Ching gets Muji to pretend to kidnap her so that Abyo can save her. This attempt to gain Abyo's attention failed, however, because Abyo believed that they were acting out a scene. However, almost immediately after, Muji kidnaps her for real. Abyo still believed they were acting until Pucca, who understood the zombie-written ransom note, took him with her to save Ching. After accidentally putting himself in danger, however, Ching ends up saving him. Abyo acknowledged her actions and called her “cooler than other girls”, much to Ching’s delight.

In the episode The Usual Ching, Ching becomes evil when affected by Doga's evil sock. She began doing bad things and blaming the actions on Pucca.

In the episode A Force of Won, she doesn't realize that Tobe constantly went after Won. So sometimes she may not worry about her surroundings. Just like at the beginning of the episode, she and Pucca walked right over Tobe and didn't seem to notice or didn't care about it.
