Maybe when they're finally alone together at night, because Liu Kang wouldn't want to leave his side...

I'm actually surprised that Liu Kang was voted to confess first!

I thought he would initially, but then I changed my mind to Kung Lao because the thought of him confessing after Liu Kang rescues him from the Netherrealm makes me weak. 😩

(Maybe it depends on if you're coming from the MK1 or MK21 side of the fandom.)

But yeah, Kung Lao kneeling before his shidi and spilling his guts. Humility, regret, gratitude, and other feelings for Liu Kang that he had kept secret. Only choosing to risk their friendship with his confession because he had been gifted a second chance at life from the man he loves...
