Kahn Souphanousinphone, Jr., better known as Connie, is a fictional character in the Fox animated series King of the Hill. She is voiced by Lauren Tom.
Connie is the daughter of Kahn and Minh Souphanousinphone. She was born in Anaheim, where the family lived before moving to Texas. Her father, Kahn, wanted a son, and named her after himself. Because "Kahn Junior" (which her father calls her) is awkward, she prefers being called by the diminutive "Connie."
Connie is academically gifted. She can speak three languages (English, Laotian and an unidentified third language (Possibly the French Kahn speaks)), and can play the violin very well. She is Bobby Hill's girlfriend on-and-off in the series, which gives Kahn great fear that she will marry Bobby and give him "redneck" grandchildren.
Though Connie does seem to take a moderate amount of pride in her academic success, she is not immune to the every day adolescent need to be popular, as she was once drafted by Peggy Hill to be a cheerleader. She seemed to very much enjoy the attention and remarked, "what's the opposite of invisible? I've never had to know before." Connie has a very jealous streak as well. When Bobby falls for other girls, an example is how her cousin, Tid Pao managed to woo Bobby with her "coolness" and Bobby pays attention to her more. She sees that Bobby wishes to be popular like her, but he only seems to want to be popular if dating a popular, attractive, or really cool girl.
Connie had her first menstrual period when she was staying at the Hills' home while her parents were on vacation. It is debatable who was more upset by the event: Connie, who was having her first period; Hank, who was the only other person in the house when it happened; or Kahn, who blamed Hank for supposedly causing the event.
