I spent four years in Korea and trained in Traditional Hapkido and Taekwondo. Here's a couple of threads to fill you in: http://www.martialartsplanet.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=8743 http://www.martialartsplanet.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11984&highlight=Korea http://www.martialartsplanet.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11941&highlight=Korea Also, do a search for for posts with usernames like tkdajumma,yang,dae-han, and myself and see what turns up. I know that the three of us have all trained in Korea. If you still have questions, post the questions and I will try toi answer them!
Radford, I shall be back in Korea in 05/2005 (permanently), and will be able to guide you. As Thomas stated, check our past posts, as they may provide some insight. You may also want to check http://www.eslcafe.com/forums/korea/ and look under TKD/HKD posts (there have been various posts about martial arts in Korea). Your question<s> are so broad that they are difficult to succinctly reply to. Read through some of our posts and ask more detailed questions. Cheers, DH
