ZUKO
Fire Lord Zuko (Chinese: 祖寇; pinyin: Zǔ Kòu), commonly known as Zuko or Prince Zuko, is a fictional character in Nickelodeon's animated television series Avatar: The Last Airbender, and is part of the Avatar: The Last Airbender world. He was created by Eric Coleman and designed by series creators Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, the character is voiced by Dante Basco in Avatar: The Last Airbender and Bruce Davison in The Legend of Korra, and portrayed by Dev Patel in M. Night Shyamalan's 2010 film The Last Airbender and Dallas Liu in the 2024 Netflix live-action remake series.
Zuko was born the Crown Prince of the Fire Nation in the capital, Hari Bulkan (also known as Caldera City). He is the eldest child of Fire Lord Ozai and Princess Ursa, and the older brother of Princess Azula and his maternal half-sister, Kiyi. Before the events of the series, Zuko is permanently scarred and then banished from the Fire Nation by his tyrannical father. In order to restore his honour and right to the Fire Nation throne, He is ordered to capture the Avatar, a spiritually powerful individual capable of bending all four elements (Water, Earth, Fire, and Air) and who could end the Hundred Year War started by the Fire Nation's genocide of all airbenders and conquest for world domination. Zuko is accompanied and advised in his search for Avatar Aang by his wise uncle, General Iroh.
At the beginning of the series, he is the primary antagonist, opposing Avatar Aang and his allies as he seeks redemption for his father since he has been banished from the Fire Nation. Over time, however, Zuko loses faith in the Fire Nation's war, feels guilt for his crimes, and begins to sympathize with those the Fire Nation has oppressed through the time he has been in the Earth Kingdom along with his uncle, Iroh. In the later part of the animated series, Zuko redeems himself, and eventually joins Aang, helping him learn firebending and fight his father in order to restore peace in the four nations. Zuko also comes to realize that Iroh has been more of a father to him than Ozai; through Iroh's teachings Zuko truly found his own path. He learned that his honor was never lost and by embracing
his true self he chose to fight for what is right rather than what was expected of him.
In "The Tales of Ba Sing Se", his name was written as "蘇科" (sū kè) on his segment's title card.
