Taekwondo (태권도; 跆拳道)

テコンドー（跆拳道）とは格闘技、スポーツの一種で、韓国の国技でオリンピックの公式種目にもなっている。「跆」（足偏に台）は、踏む・跳ぶ・蹴る等の足技、「拳」は突く­、叩く、受ける等の手技、「道」は、礼に始まり礼に終わる精神を表している。
Taekwondo (태권도; 跆拳道; Korean pronunciation: [tʰɛkwʌndo]) is a Korean martial art and the national sport of South Korea. In Korean, tae (태, 跆) means "to strike or break with foot"; kwon (권, 拳) means "to strike or break with fist"; and do (도, 道) means "way," "method," or "art." Thus, "taekwondo" may be loosely translated as "the way of the foot and fist" or "the way of kicking and punching."
태권도(한자: 跆拳道)는 대한민국의 국기이자, 현재 세계에서 많은 사람들이 수련하는 무술이다. 주먹 기술이나 잡기 기술을 강조하는 대부분의 맨손 격투기와는 달리 빠르고 강력한 발차기 기술을 특징으로 한다.

I am not sure that TKD is an imitation of Karate. But, I am sure that "kick" is a most important skill Taekwondo which is different from Karate.

Many victims are still believing the funny MYTH, TKD is 'invented' or 'originated' in Korea.

TKD is an imitation of Karate. Read recent study and testimony.
