“You're pushing yourself too hard, MK. Working all day, partying all night, painting boats? It's not good for a growing boy. You need to time to relax.”
— Tang
Tang is a member of MK's team. After the Demon Bull King was freed from his imprisonment, Tang was one of the four members that assisted MK to help him give the Golden Staff to the Monkey King. However, after MK's presumed death in the Flaming Mountains, Tang and the others were saddened, but had no other choice but to go on without MK, so no one else would get hurt by the Demon Bull Family. Eventually, Tang and the others found out that MK survived and celebrated when he defeated the Demon Bull King.
After several weeks, when the Demon Bull King and the Bull Clones took over the city after being possessed by Lady Bone Demon, Tang supported MK by helping him fend off the Bull Clones while MK freed the Demon Bull King from the spirit's possession.
As a storyteller, Tang often likes telling stories to MK and the rest of his team, such as the Demon Bull King's imprisonment and the Peaches of Immortality. He also has a habit of eating noodles, as he told stories about Monkey King to MK so he can get free noodles in return, despite Pigsy not allowing him to. Like MK, Tang also has an obsession with the Monkey King's legends, as he got overjoyed when he met Monkey King in person and learned that the Golden Staff was real.

Shadow
“Maybe it's just me, but these guys don't look to happy about being left in the shadow of the great Monkie Kid.”
While Tang and the others attended a shadow play, Macaque used a magic lantern to imprison them in it and take control of their shadows, including Tang's.
