There are Chinese martial arts.

武藝圖譜通志Muye Dobo Tongji (1790) : Comprehensive Illustrated Manual of Martial Arts in Korea

【 It is the official document at Korean Dynasty, written by The Korean King order 】

我國練兵之制三軍練于郊，衛士練于禁苑，其禁苑練兵盛自 光廟朝，然止弓矢一技而已如槍劍法技，既未之聞焉，

Archery was the only martial art that had been practiced by Korean soldiers. They have no skills of sword or spear fighting.

Therefore, Koreans began learning sword skills and others from Chinese .

it might look like a samurai sword but the shape and the blade is lil different if you see it in real life

@centraltheorem2076 that isn't a samurai sword. Korean swords during from the 16-20th centuries were single edged like japanese swords but the swords weren't identical. Their swordmaking techniques are different. The hinges, length, steel, sharpness are all different. i would say the japanese sword is much better though.
