Hey...I thought that Her was included in Khang and Kue are not allowed to married for some reason as what you say. I"m not any of those so probably not but it's one of my friend which he's a Her and told me that. Long ago, there's NO Kue or Khang, just Her but somewhat they married each other with same last name so they changed their last name into different. That's what my friend told me. He might be wrong....that's what his parent told him and yeah....he told me at a time where we found this one Kue girl.......
