Re: KPB?
They were around for a quick minute. I was busted with one of them back in 94/95.. he was a down ass cat.. he was released a few months after me, he was shot and killed in K-Town by some mobsters (supposedly).. not sure but that was the word.
Re: KPB?
i think i know who you are talkin' about. and yeah...KPB was around. some heads are still around, though they are far from their bangin' days. most notable would prolly be "Batman".nela_4lyf wrote:They were around for a quick minute.

and what nela_4lyf said is correct...they got into some beef with the mob...that's when things fell apart.

KPB didnt get into it with moraeshigae (and they aint no MOB) but something did happen. in 1994, KPB brought some older koreans from korea who were some gangstas to work for them. a year later they(the fobs) started doin their own thing and started up a gang called moraeshigae. well, it was october 29, 1995 when the founder of KPB and the moraeshigae got into a arguement with one another n the founder of KPB shot 2 of em and they shot back n the founder of KPB passed away. the KPB's wanted to get revenge but they had no one to get revenge on cuz at the time there was only 3 moraeshigae and they all got locked up for the shootin. thats when "CHIN" took over KPB and KPB was active till around 1999. CHIN got locked up for murder n attempted murder and did 10 years. now he's in korea cuz he got deported. KPB died out cuz they all got old. No one killed them off or anything. Batman never was from KPB, he was from GardenGrove but he kicked it with them. then he started chillin with FMS after. Batman was never from KPB. any other questions...

anyways, i met alotta KPB when i was in korea, i wonder if chin was one of em. i have no idea, but all of them were bouncers or club managers and were all tatted up completely, LA tats, playboy tats, etc. they were real cool dudes mostly, talkin bout they left cuz they caught cases or they got deported. got drunk wid them, and they were pretty chills dudes, a lot older than me and jus laid back from my experiences wid the ones i met. good ppls.
is there another batman, cuz i met some fool by that name from LA and he had beef with FMS, im wonder if its the same one. i ran into FMS a few times in gg, and once in anaheim, and both times drama popped up. iono if they bust shots, but i can vouch for the fact that they all like 5'6 and can't scrap. i still dunno how they got a name for themselves wid their fist game so weak. someone plz explain why they are "notorious" in gg n westminster.

Re: KPB?
korean gangs can't be taken seriously..they always die out after a couple of years cuz they never deep they all get old or locked up no one to take their place, the reason why gangs like kpb are gone now is they never had a' lot of heads yeah some of u might say that being deep isnt everything but trust me if u wanna see another generation u better be recruiting especially korean gangs since koreans rlly dont get into that gang thing like viets and camobodians

To some degree...Have a homie that was close to him, I did go drink w/ him but he was a youngster, didnt talk much, when I was around. I wont recognize him in the streets, but I'm sure he will if he saw me. and I'll leave it at that.

Re: KPB?
Thats not true and flat out bias. I don't remember any kinda fear like that going on. Some Viet gangs in the 90's were the most craziest in OC at the time. Both Viet and Korean gangs in that area had firm reps.
