Monk Sing Chinese Male
Monk Sing is Sam’s counterpart in many ways. Monk Sing is the individual Samuel Lincoln Tharpe would have become had he the opportunity to live and train at the Temple. Monk Sing ranks as one of the highest skilled priest living in Songshan, and he is a living embodiment of Shaolin values and ideals. Possessing the heart of a genuine priest, Sing displays honesty, forthrightness and loyalty. He also nearly overpowers Sam in their duel. By defeating one of the Temple’s best fighters, Sam decisively cements his membership among Shaolin’s elite. Handsome and charismatic, Sing exudes both humility and grace. When he loses the contest with Sam, Sing relents because he knows that Sam is worthy of their holy traditions, even if he’s an outsider. Monk Sing also cares deeply for those under his care, particularly Sam’s children. However, Mong Sing is no pushover. If the need arises, Sing can be quite relentless in pursuit of his goal to protect Shaolin and those dependent on him.
