Moreover, another actor Dallas Dupree Young, whose character Kenny Payne was introduced in the show’s fourth season as the bullied underdog Kenny Payne, has been made a regular cast member and will play a more prominent part in Cobra Kai Season 5.
Now, it would be interesting to see how Daniel LaRusso and Johnny Lawrence will fight back with new allies, including ‘Karate Kid 2’ character Chozen (played by Yuji Okumoto), in ‘Cobra Kai’ Season 5.
