Juri Han is a sadistic, thrill-seeking South Korean Taekwondo fighter from the Street Fighter video game franchise known for her chaotic personality, flashy kicks, and cybernetic left eye. Once a prodigy Taekwondo practitioner nicknamed the "Beautiful Genius." At fifteen, her life changed when her lawyer father was being targeted by Shadaloo agents. They killed her parents and severely damaged her left eye. Rescued and experimented on by Shadaloo's weapons division S.I.N., she received the Feng Shui Engine, a ki-amplifying device, implanted in her eye socket, which helped her rearrange furniture to a professional level. I'm sorry, know, I mean, it granted her superhuman speed, power, and energy manipulation, but it also amplified her vengeful and sadistic tendencies.

She first appeared in the Super Street Fighter IV game, and in many since. She has also appeared in the official Street Fighter comic series from Udon, and Super Street Fighter: New Generations detailed her origin story (above). She appeared in Street Fighter Legends: Cammy ten years ago, as well as the likes of Street Fighter Shadaloo Special, Street Fighter Masters: Game Gals, Street Fighter vs. Darkstalkers and more, and got a short story spotlight in the You've Got This, Juri!, official one-page webcomics on the Street Fighter 6 site. But in August 2026, she gets her own one-shot, Street Fighter Masters: Juri, written by Adam Warren and drawn by Matthew Weldon.

Adam Warren is an American comic book writer and artist, best known for his highly detailed, manga-influenced comics, including early US manga Dirty Pair in the eighties, Gen 13 for WildStorm/Image/DC, Livewires and Iron Man for Marvel, Bubblegum Crisis, nd superhero parody Empowered. Adam Warren has contributed many variant covers and pin-up illustrations for Udon's Street Fighter line, and now he is writing Juri, promising you will "Get up close with the bad girl of street fighting." Would you call that his Juri Service? I think you might. Hang on, I'm adding that to the headline.

Udon Entertainment Corp is a Canadian art studio and publisher, which publishes original and translated comic books, graphic novels, manga and art books, mostly related to anime and video games, including the Street Fighter video games license, originally through Image Comics, then Devil's Due Publishing, creating the Capcom Comic Book Universe, including Dark Stalkers. It was founded in 2000 and is named after udon, a kind of noodle… and the only comic book publisher to be named after one, now that Spaghetti Comix got tangled up in litigation and Lasagne Sheets folded.
