Liu Kang is not related by blood to the great Kung Lao, despite what the MK4 bios may say. Kung Lao and Liu Kang are brothers in the fraternity of monks.

oh ok. So there just really distant relatives then.

They are not relatives.

Not "relatives", but like really realy close friends because they grew up together in school.

"Fraternal brothers"..

This can probably be closed now.

Oh oh ok i see now what it is. My confusion was only because of the movie stating liu kang is the desendant of kung lao. But of corse it's the movie. Ok all cleared up. Can be closed.
