Choong-Jang is the pseudonym given to General Kim Duk Ryang who lived during the Lee Dynasty, 14th century. This pattern ends with a left-hand attack to symbolize the tragedy of his death at 27 in prison before he was able to reach full maturity.
I'm lead to believe that each and every one of these videos were filmed in front of General Choi. I fairly certain that if it was not how he intended it to be, he would have mentioned it..
@krz883 lol your dumb and judgemental. i dont mean to bicker about nonsense and small things, i only want to point out the differences that fascinate me. i dont mean to say you keehap at every techniques, however, there are certain ones you should. as for your aggression towards me, i cyber pat you on the head and smile :)
@meophamtkd i practice the old school method that includes keehaps. maybe you dont remember, maybe it was before your time. it sertainly was before mine, but his old school method still thunders through dojangs across the country in very small numbers. this method was also before sinewave.
the forms used to have keehaps but not anymore, roundhouse kick is just the english name for dollyo chagi, mae geri etc. no need to pick an argument guys :)
@raitsogen I would love to see how you do choong jang, please post a video. Why do we have to keehap after every move, its pointless and uses more energy. You would think that being a 2nd degree, you would know the basics and fundamentals of ITF tae kwon do, but apparently not.
this video did help me a bit. one thing i dont like about the way they do the forms now days is they dont keehap through the entire form. the dropping roundhouse (done poorly btw) should be a keehap and the last palm strike should be a keehap.
@Raitsogen
Just in case you're still hanging around.
General Choi invented the pattern.
General Choi invented TKD.
It always had Sine Wave in it from day 1.

Just saying...
