Origin

The premiere South Korean superhero is Taegukgi. When he was a teenager, he started a street gang just to survive that grew into a criminal enterprise. While robbing a military weapons cache, he was exposed to the Psylot Gem and given superpowers. Feeling like he had no one left to turn to, he returned home to his adoptive mother, who helped ground him. She inspired him to better the world after putting so much evil into, but he believed he couldn't do it alone. So, he handpicked the members of Tiger Division to help him.

Creation

Tiger Division was first mentioned in Taskmaster #3 by Jed McKay and Alessando Vitti with the first appearance of Korean superman, Taegukgi. However, the rest of the roster wouldn't be seen until Black Cat Annual 2021

Major Story Arcs

Psychic Cuckoo

A gangster family called the Choi Faction have taken Taegukgi, the heart and brawn of Tiger Division, hostage. They have him under mind control and are threatening to unleash him on Seoul if control over the government is not granted to them. The Choi Faction had been tracked to an Alps ski resort. Most of the team were assigned to attack the resort to distract the criminals, while White Fox sneaks in through the back door with Black Cat, who they arrested during a layover, to neutralize the method that Taegukgi was being controlled.

While Tiger Division was still fighting an out-of-character Taegukgi outside, Fox and Cat found Mongdal, a psychic body snatcher who White Fox had run-ins with before. The Choi Faction helped fake his death and provided him with the drugs that enhanced his powers. Once he had taken over Taegukgi’s body, the power went to his head, and he killed his employers so he could keep the body for himself.

Before they got Mondgal’s attention, Black Cat injected a nanomunnition bomb into his comatose neck with a device she swiped from Fox. While he was monologuing about his plans, Cat had him killed, saving the day.

Death of Doctor Strange

After Doctor Strange was killed, the barrier between Earth and other dimensions was weakened without its Sorcerer Supreme. Tiger Division was one of the many teams called to action to fight against monsters invading Asia.

White Fox, the last kumiho on Earth, had to separate from the team when a second kumiho was spotted. Fox that it could bring answers to her past. Sword Master of the Agents of Atlas agreed to go along with her. Unfortunately, the kumiho was dark and twisted. Sword Master was kicked off a cliff into a river during the fight.

As the barrier is fortified, Tiger Division joins the search party for Sword Master.

MTO Corporation

The team was called in by White Fox after someone broke into their southeast storage unit, where they kept the dangerous and rare artifacts they had seized in the field. The Psylot Gem had been stolen but exposed the thief to an energy signature that The General could follow. However, they were lured into a trap and ambushed by robots. The team were barely overwhelmed, but The General took a blast to the midsection, so the team retreated with his body.

Gun-R was able to scan a hunk of metal they recovered from The General. He found that it was custom made by the MTO Corporation, which he then hacked and found resources for something called “The Kal Duo Project.” The name reminded Tae of something from his past and broke off from the team to investigate MTO on his own. MTO was secretly being run by his former childhood friend Min-Jae, who Tae thought had died following their attempted break-in. Jealous of Tae’s power, he stole the Psylot Gem to steal Tae’s powers. Luckily, Gun-R had finally hacked through into the security feed and saw Tae in trouble.

With The General healed up, the team races to Tae’s rescue. They were too late to stop Tae from being drained of his power, but they were able to delay Min-Jae from taking it for himself. Before anyone could release the energy, they were interrupted by Doctor Doom, Min-Jae’s silent partner. The team was forced to fight Doom and even more of Min-Jae’s robot sentries, far more than were at the early ambush.

Luckily, Tae was able to get through to Min-Jae, who betrayed Doom for his old friend. While they all kept Doom busy, Gun-R was able to activate the compressor the gem was put in and re-power Tae. The compressor wasn’t designed for more than one use though, so it exploded destroying the gem and isolating the power to Tae.

One World Under Doom

When Doctor Doom usurped the title of Sorcerer Supreme, he used it to install himself as world emperor. He allowed nations to keep their sovereignty as long as they didn't resist his own rules. South Korea complied, even changing the name of their government sponsored superhero team to Doom's Division. They also recruited three new members as part of Doom's open border policy: The Philippines' Wave, China's Aero, and Vietnam's Karma. They would need their help to take down Sunfire's growing Pan-Asian Resistance to Doom.

After the resignation of Lady Bright, who refused to work for Doom, the new lineup was sent to investigate a possible headquarters of Sunfire in Hokkaido, Japan. Once there, Wave and Karma attacked the team, revealing that they were moles for Sunfire. Karma managed to mind control Taegukgi, much to the chagrin of his teammates who had to deal with yet another mind-controlled superman. Aero, who was surprised at Wave and Karma's defection, managed to stop the fighting between the two factions so they could start a conversation. Unfortunately, White Fox interjected, killing Sunfire with a kiss and hypnotizing the team into giving themselves up.

Her hypnosis did not work on Gun-R, who managed to track down Lady Bright and plan a breakout of their teammates. Once freed, they made a play to take down White Fox. Most of the team would raid White Fox's office while Karma and Wave search for Sunfire's remains. White Fox got the drop on them at first, but they managed to overpower her, chasing her into the surrounding forest. After Luna Snow trapped her in ice, Karma and Wave arrived with Sunfire, still alive. White Fox revealed her allegiance to Doom had been a ruse so she could covertly create a new headquarters away from Doom's surveillance, but Sunfire's actions complicated the reveal. Thus, the two teams became one, while White Fox returned to Tiger Division to keep up the ruse.
