This carried over up to Tekken 7, as seen here paired with Yoshimitsu's Manji Dragonfly stance.

It's then up to you whether to let the round time run out, or have the decency to hit him out of it. Breaker: When fighting against an AI-controlled Hwoarang in Tag 2, if you side-walk while he's advancing in his Flamingo stance (or if he starts to do this when he's not directly facing you), he won't stop moving forward and will not change his stance, all the way to and despite the stage limit. A more prominent example is with Xiaoyu they rarely interacted in the games, but in the show, she and Hwoarang are shown to be close friends themselves beyond their own shared relationships with Jin. In Bloodline, Hwoarang is still depicted as Jin's rival, but they're also shown to be cordial and friendly whenever they're not thinking about their fights. Adaptation Relationship Overhaul: Somewhat.Hwoarang can be stymied by a solid defense and has poor whiff-punishment, requiring a good Hwoarang player to memorize stances and the movements between them, never let up the pressure once it's been applied, and read their opponent well enough to account for their defense. This gives him a truly absurd number of mix-ups.

Hwoarang has six stances depending on his orientation to his opponent, the position of his feet, and whether or not he is in his raised-leg Flamingo stance, each with their own comprehensive moveset. In Tekken 7, Hwoarang is an relentlessly offensive mix-up/rushdown character who specializes in keeping an opponent off balance, applying huge damage through branching combos to prevent opponents from escaping the Cycle of Hurting.
