Mung

"fire"

- We're going to cure the world of this wretched village.

General Mung is a Firebending master. He is a heartless man who believes that military needs always outweigh civilian needs. He holds great contempt for the villagers of Jang Hui and often orders his soldiers to take their food and medicine, calling it a "patriotic donation." He takes great pride in being part of the Fire Nation "war machine" and one day hopes to serve on the front lines in the Earth Kingdom.

General Mung has a very large scar that extends from one side of his face to the other; and it goes right through the bridge of his nose. This scar shows that the Fire Nation uses metal staples to help their soldiers heal.

History
General Mung operated the factory that was polluting the water of the Jang Hui village. When Katara and Aang destroyed the factory, he blamed the villagers and also accused them of stealing medicine and food supplies. Katara had committed these crimes, disguised as the Painted Lady, in her efforts to help the villagers. He and the factory workers then started destroying the village, but they were confronted by Katara in her Painted Lady disguise (with bending help from Aang, who was hiding under the docks, and sound effects provided by Toph, Sokka, and Appa). The factory workers were scared off, and the village was saved.
