Does anyone have any links to sites that have the korean terms (along with the english). My instructor says i will pick it up but id rather learn it off by heart. thanks

There's several links in there, but generally try and stick to one source, as there are variations in the translation from Korean to English. Hope that helps. :)

Turtle Press has an audio CD featuring Master Sang Kim pronouncing Taekwondo terminology. Go to www.turtlepress.com where you can find the contents to the CD which is a good reference from English to Korean.

We have it translated as "sijak", you get less funny looks from that one. :D

I like http://www.blackbeltschools.com/syllabus/tkd.asp. It has terminology for 10th kup to 5th Dan, pattern description from 10th kup to 5th Dan and a korean test. Its mainly for TAGB but i use it and im BUTF (in other words not TAGB).

However I guess all this stuff only applies if you do ITF TKD or a something similar to that.

...some basic korean writing that is not TKD related please note that I said writing, as I am fine with the speaking I know already.
