As the title says, I'm trying to open a couple files that are kux(there's one that's kux#). The origin of the files were from inner Mongolia, my friend traveled there and is now asking me how to open them.

Your .kux files are older multimedia files, more precisely, files in the format of Youku KUX Video.
(Youku was a Chinese video-sharing service based in Beijing.)
This multimedia file format was some years ago popular in Asia, unfortunately it's now unsupported as an obsolete one.
But luckily, the free and open source software FFmpeg is able to convert it to many different formats — use the command
ffmpeg -i "Your_input_file.kux" "Output_file.mp4"to convert it into the .mp4 video.
You may use other multimedia file extensions, as .avi or .mov instead of .mp4 to convert your .kux file into those formats.
Kux is a Youku video format, you can open it by downloading Youku software.
