Dong King is the main antagonist of Pucca: Love Recipe. He is the father of Ring Ring and CEO and boss of Dong King Restaurant. He is the villain who hired Fyah to try to bring Goh-Rong down and destroy the chefs' teamwork, despite that their efforts fail constantly. Though he is the biggest bad in the entire show, he apparently is afraid of Ring Ring and avoids her at any cost (either that or he just hates to putting up with her).
In "Dong King vs. Goh Rong Part 1," Dong King tricks Garu into believing that he is his father, and has him collect ingredients for him, which results in Goh-Rong's loss.
Biography[]
Very little is known about Dong King, other than that he had a past rivalry with Uncle Dumpling; nevertheless, the rivalry seems to be only in Dong King's mind, as Dumpling doesn't even remember Dong King (something that greatly annoys him). He may or may not have some involvement with alien or space politics, as he tried to make Ring Ring date Prince Octo as a possible suitor for purposes of an alliance. Not only that, but he also has a bodyguard named Edward who could be an alien.
