- “Have you been to see the other members of the Kong family? They're not as useful as me of course, but they might be able to help.”
- —Cranky Kong, Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest
The Kong Family (also known as the Kong Klan[1] and the DK Crew[2][3]) is the name given to the Kong relatives and friends of Donkey Kong. The patriarch of the family is Cranky Kong, the original Donkey Kong. In the Donkey Kong franchise series of video games, members of the Kong Family are either playable characters or supporting characters that aid the main heroes on their journey. They seem to be in constant conflict with the Kremling Krew, an organization bent on stealing the family's Banana Hoard and destroying Donkey Kong Island.
Emblem
The family often uses the initials "DK" as a symbol, which most often represents Donkey Kong. It is seen on many things in the Donkey Kong franchise, like on Donkey Kong's tie, the DK Barrels, the DK Coins, the Level Flags, and various objects around Donkey Kong Island. The symbol is also used in the Super Smash Bros. series, although in this context, it is used as the logo for the Donkey Kong franchise in general instead of just the Kong Family members (since King K. Rool and Klaptraps also use it).
