Kukkiwon: Home of Taekwondo in Korea

[Ryan981cp]

wish i could go there

[ceyhan49]

Taekwondo is not an Olympic sport... well at least originally not... but we should also practice its martial arts sometimes.. not just getting prepared for sports sparring and other techniques...

You Are? I've always wanted to know how to say; "I want a bowl of soup!" can you tell me?

[deguimerautube]

ITF? I'm WTF 1st Dan, I'm just wondering, because mostly ITF write it as Taekwon do instead of the WTF's Taekwondo.

[26jess]

Well ITF is invented by the guy who created taekwondo.Its the same because in English it could be spelled anyway to match its pronunciation.ITF is more original though.ITF is more like karate because the forms are influenced from it and they kick with the ball of the foot(bottom of the foot).WTF broke away from ITF and could be called a different style if you want.WTF kicks with the instep(top of the foot) and the forms have these multiple kick things.WTF seems sloppy to ITF and karate.I'm ITF.

[chrisgeorgegray]

true man very true i used to practice WTF but switched to TAGB (the british ITF taekwon do organization) and prefer ITF much more

I'd love to practice Taekwondo in Korea coz they do it best!!

[voicetown]

Excellent!! i visited korea last year and made lots of friends...i love kimchee, bulgogee, japce but taekwondo show was by far the best.

[56captvideo]

@voicetown bulgogee...wow thank you for reminding me of that! Years back in soutwest Philadelphia there was a store on Baltimore avenue we all affectionately called "mama Cha's" we would go there and eat pulgogee...it was delicious...what a fond memory and of course the Korean family were the best friends the community could hope for.

[sohngoku]

great!!

[robstr12]

Awesome!  Thanks!
