History

In the wake of the Japanese occupation of South Korea, the country instituted a variety of martial arts schools. In addition to pre-existing combat forms, a new style was developed by Choi Hong Hi, who would later become a major general in the South Korean Army in 1954. Taekwondo, which translates to the way of hand and foot, would gain traction through the following decades as Choi began establishing teachers of this new martial art across the globe. This culminated with the formation of the World Taekwondo Federation in 1973.
