Kwai Fong is named after Kwai Fong Estate, a public housing estate. Kwai (葵) is the first Chinese character of Kwai Chung. Before the Mass Transit Railway (MTR) served the area, there were only few private residential blocks west of the estate.
Kwai Chung Sports Ground is a major sports ground in Kwai Tsing District. It has track and field facilities and a football pitch. It was the first facility in the district to include Tartan track. It is situated next to Hing Fong Road, opposite Metropolitan Plaza.
Named after Kwai Fong Estate, a large public housing estate to its northeast, Kwai Fong, the neighbourhood around the station, has successfully become a transit interchange, business centre, as well as the landmark area of Kwai Chung. Since opening, all sorts of road transportation from various places in the Kwai Tsing District have converged here. A mall (Metroplaza) was also built west of the station in the early 1990s. The station also serves those who work in the factories to its east.
The tracks north of the station are surrounded by concrete noise barriers to minimize noise pollution for residents living near the railway.
Automatic platform gates were installed at this station in August 2011 in response to a number of accidents involving passengers falling on to the tracks.

The Kwai are one of the thousands of species Element Lad was ultimately responsible for the creation of after he became stranded a billion years in the past of the "Second Galaxy," in his indefinitely prolonged lifespan. They were an insect-like humanoid race, whose distinguishing features included slate-grey skin with black tattoo-like markings, dragonfly-like wings, retractable armoured exoskeletons and the ability to find any path if such existed, even without obvious tracks to follow.
Their travels usually led them to follow "feral stars" - newly appearing stars in their path - which they considered good luck. When, in the 31st century, Element Lad's home time period, they followed a "star" which was in reality the Legionnaire Wildfire, it led them to encounter the Progeny, a xenophobicbeetle-like race who began to hunt them down. While fleeing from a Progeny attack which killed two of her friends, Shikari would encounter the other Legionnaires, held in stasis, who had been flung through a rift to the Second Galaxy - though displaced only in space rather than time and space. Revived, they aided her in driving off the Progeny, then followed her to their "brief-home," where they helped the Kwai to gather resources for moving on, and the Kwai helped in turn to make their heavily damaged ship functional, and created a new containment suit for Wildfire from their plastic-like "Use-weave". They and the Legion then went their separate ways, although Shikari would remain with the team.

Bite the hand that feeds your face One more thing you can replace Shut my mouth because I’m spilling all your dirty secrets Slap the wrist of this embrace You're the one who's losing face Search the quiet corners Lock the door I can hear you screaming Don't wake up you're not really dreaming When your world starts caving in I'd still take you in Pour the salt straight in my veins I wont need them anymore Make the cut much deeper Lying on your bedroom floor I'm giving up, I’m giving up When your world starts caving in I'd still take you in And if your world filled you with fear I'm already here And I've been everything you ever needed Ever wanted, everything you wished for And this is how you repay me And I've always been right here You'll play your part and I'll play mine Even if I don't want to Wish I understood this game But it cost me just the same Whatever I owe you Never sacrifice the pain But it always ends, it always end the same When your world starts caving in I'd still take you in And if your world filled you with fear I'm already here
