Vice President Lee Jong-woo was born in Changsin-dong, Seoul in 1928. Vice President Lee's father moved to Seoul after living in Icheon, Gyeonggi-do, and is said to have lived in the servants' quarters of Son Byung-hee, who campaigned for independence as a representative of Cheondogyo. In 1949, Vice President Lee entered the Department of Applied Art at Seoul National University after graduating from Kyungshin High School, but the following year, when the Korean War broke out, he stopped studying and entered the martial arts world. It is said that applying for an art college was a means for "exhibition," but changed the course of life through war. -When did the vice president first encounter martial arts? "Right after liberation." It's a dream of adolescence. At the age of 17, I was vaguely dreaming of becoming a master of Murim, and when someone goes to Sogong-dong, they say there is a place that teaches 18 classes. So I went there. That was the Judo Dojang during the Japanese colonial period, and at that time, the Judo Department and the Gwonbeop Department were created under the sign of the Joseon Yeonmugwan. That's when I learned karate in the martial arts department. The martial arts is Japanese karate. "If I sing it in Japanese, I have national sentiment, so I called it Kwon-beop." -If you watch movies such as "The General's Son" and "Sirasoni," you will see a lot of fists right after liberation. Did they learn karate, too? "As far as I know, none of the gangsters learned karate properly. He looked strong because he just swarmed around and hit him with a club, but if he was really good, he would have been Kim Doo-hwan, Sirasoni, and terrible. There were occasionally cases where "jodas" who were not successful in sports entered the fist world." -Karate was called Dangsu at the time. "Some people wrote Dangsu and others wrote Gongsu. If you translate Dangsu or Gongsu into Japanese, it becomes karate. It's all the same, but it's a martial art to make each stamp look unique. That's what Dangsu and Gongsu all called it." - Did the vice president renew his leadership while learning karate at the Joseon Yeonmugwan? "In the early days, the Joseon Yeonmugwan was centered on Judo and there was a Gwonbeobbu in one corner. However, the Joseon Medical Officer served as an assistant during the Korean War. Lee Byung-seok, who was in charge of the Joseon Yeonmugwan, was a nationalist. That's why the people of the law department got another place and fell apart because it was politically difficult. The Korean Gymnasium on Euljiro 3-ga was the position of the instructor." -How many levels did the vice president win as a martial arts troupe? "After a year, I became a first class, a second class, and a third class, and there was Korean War. Seoul was restored and I was undergoing a four-stage screening, and I had appendectomy then. So other people took the practical test, and I got the 4th grade on recommendation. Later, after creating the association, it went up to level 9. At first, it was the first level of martial arts, but later it became the ninth level of Taekwondo. That's how the name changed." (Simplified) - Was Chairman Kim in direct communication with President Park? "It's not that, but you're in public office, so you've got permission. It must have been because Park Jong-gyu, the head of the security office, is a person who has performed JP several times, and the president is the highest voting right. I don't know if Kim Un-yong met the three in person at the time." v-International Taekwondo Federation (ITF) President Choi Hong-hee says Kim Un-yong's entry into the Taekwondo community was a political conspiracy. "He lies every time he opens his mouth. It's not worth answering. He is the one who is evil in the world. People who don't know think Choi Hong-hee is great, but it's a very gallbladder. I know well about Choi Hong-hee." Vice President Lee reacted nervously when the name "Choi Hong-hee" came out. It is said that the two were in a close relationship when the masters of the powerhouse set up their own stamps after liberation. However, Vice President Lee currently devalued President Choi Hong-hee to the level of a "fraud." What's the reason? In order to solve this question, it is necessary to first look at the path that Choi Hong-hee has taken. Choi Hong-hee was born in Hwadae, North Hamgyeong Province in 1918, graduated from the University of Japan and the Seoul Military English School, and took office as the first president of the Korea Taedo Association (later changed to the Korean Taekwondo Association) in 1961. He served as the head of the 6th Army and was a karate Judaist, and organized his own taekwondo system when he was in the army. Choi's relationship with Choi Hong-hee and bad relationship Choi fled to Canada in 1972, and public evaluations are mixed. Many South Korean Taekwondo players say that when Choi was working as a diplomat, he was accused of misappropriating public funds and returned home, and when Kim Un-yong entered the Taekwondo community, he felt a crisis and fled to foreign countries. On the other hand, Choi had no choice but to leave Korea because he opposed the third-term constitutional amendment and collided with the Park Chung-hee administration, Choi said in his 2001 book "Taekwondo Island and I." Choi, who went to Canada, strongly criticized the Park Chung-hee regime. In the 1980s, he frequently visited North Korea and took the lead in supplying Taekwondo, centered on military units. Due to Choi's "pro-North Korean move," it was considered taboo in South Korea to mention the name Choi Hong-hee until recently. Choi also served as president of the International Taekwondo Federation, which he founded in 1966, but has been gradually pushed out of international competition since Kim Un-young launched the World Taekwondo Federation (WTF) in 1973. As South Korea's Taekwondo was adopted as an official event for the 2000 Sydney Olympics, the fight for leadership between the two Koreas over Taekwondo is considered to have virtually ended. - The name "Taekwondo" was decided on April 11, 1955, by the "Name Establishment Committee," centered on Governor Choi Hong-hee. Choi Hong-hee is the founder of Taekwondo in the world-renowned Encyclopedia of Britannickers. I agree with this. "Choi Hong-hee arbitrarily moved Taekkyeon to Chinese characters and made it Taekwon." Taekwon means the combination of jichuktae and fist Kwon." - Looking at "Taekwondo Island and Me" written by Choi Hong-hee, it came out that several people gathered at the time and unanimously decided "Taekwondo" through consultation. "It's not unanimous because there were people who opposed it." -Choi Hong-hee argues that he has researched and created modern Taekwondo for nine years since 1949 when he was serving in the military. "It's not worth evaluating. Yoon Byung-in was the one who built a Changmugwan at YMCA and taught karate to Kim Un-yong at Kyungdong High School, and the class asked Choi Hong-hee to meet and join him in Japan, but Choi Hong-hee didn't. After that, Choi Hong-hee made martial arts by combining various things in the unit, all of which are Japanese. It's made of karate. It's based on karate and the name is Taekwondo, so we're more pure, who recognized it as karate from the beginning. Choi Hong-hee later applied for the title of "Taekwon" to Dr. Lee (President Lee Seung-man), but Dr. Lee didn't write it for me." - Choi Hong-hee's book says that President Lee wrote the posthumous title.. "It's a lie." That was written by Choi Honghee. The handwriting is Choi Honghee's. The pen name Taekwondo was later received by President Park Jung-hee by Kim Un-yeong. If Choi Hong-hee was named by the president at that time, there should be grounds. When we heard that we were sponsored by President Park Chung-hee in the 1970s, he made it so that he wouldn't lose. At that time, I never brought up the sound that Choi Hong-hee was given the title. If I had received it, why wouldn't I have disclosed it then?" -Taekwondo was called Taesudo before. How did the word Taesudo come about? "When I lived on the diplomatic residence of the Minister of Foreign Affairs in Hannam-dong, Choi Hong-hee's house was beyond the Islamic Church. So we met often. It hasn't been long since May 16 came out, and Choi Hong-hee asked me to use Taekwondo. So I said, "What is Taekwon?" He replied, "It's a variation of karate." Then, the word "taesudo" came out by combining karate (principal, offense and defense) and Taekwondo. He also said that if we open it, it's su (() and if we hold it, it's Kwon ()), so it's like holding it or spreading it. At that time, Choi Hong-hee was the head of the 6th division, and I remember talking to me while I was about to go to work with a pistol." -Why did the vice president object when changing Taesudo to Taekwondo? "I just had to decide once, but why do you keep changing it?" Then Choi Hong-hee put pressure on the sports association, so the situation was very complicated. At that time, right after the military revolution, there were many soldiers in key positions. At that time, I fought, saying, "Why is the sports association trying to change its name?" But in the process of discussing Taekwondo integration, Vice President Lee confronted me by saying, "I can't go to Taekwondo Association's signboard," and said, "Go away even if I die." "He's crazy. Would I have cried because of that? Rather, when he drinks, he cries and says, "I only have two people (vice president Lee and former president Um Un-kyu). "I have no one to trust," he said. "I oppose the integration of Taekwondo between the two Koreas. Taekwondo and I reveal Choi Hong-hee's uncomfortable feelings toward Vice President Lee without filtering." Even this expression comes out. "Lee Jong-woo has no Taekwondo skills, is a master of conspiracy and flattery, and was in contact with Kim Jong-pil, head of the Central Intelligence Agency. As evidence, when Jooheung rose to some extent from the top fairy of Uidong, he said something obvious next to Kim Jong-pil.' -What do you think is the reason why President Choi described Vice President Lee negatively? "It must have been because I'm the strongest enemy." I even created the International Taekwondo Federation for him, and how he conspires me like that.... Choi Hong-hee regarded Taekwondo as her personal property. There was no sense of internationality at all. That's why he always paid for it and only made it happen. As a result, all the people who followed Choi Hong-hee at first fell apart later." -President Choi argues that he was uncomfortable with President Park Chung-hee because he opposed the third-term constitutional amendment, and that there was a force systematically insulting him in Taekwondo. "It's a lie." He's a very well-known guy who just says this here and then says, "It's different from what you said earlier," and then says, "It's a joke before, but now it's a truth." He even made a Malaysian ambassador under Park Jung-hee and was sent back to Korea for public funds. Then, Kim Un-yeong, a former member of the Blue House security office, sneaked away when she entered the Taekwondo world.
I can give countless pieces of evidence that he lied to." As Governor Choi Hong-hee distributed Taekwondo centered on North Korean military units, Taekwondo between the two Koreas has taken a completely different path. While South Korea focused on economicization and health promotion, North Korea developed into a practical martial arts. For this reason, some analysts say that harmonizing the strengths of the two Koreas could increase Taekwondo's competitiveness. - How do you look at the recent theory of inter-Korean taekwondo integration raised by some? "I'm the one who opposes it. North Korea can enter North Korea as a member of the World Federation. Choi Hong-hee leads the International Federation, but it's like a private organization. Should we compromise with private organizations?" -Do you think there is no need to integrate the advantages of Taekwondo between the two Koreas? North Korea's Taekwondo is considered especially strong in practice, so we can accept it creatively. "I think there's something technically acceptable. However, it's hard to say that you're strong in practice because you have to fight to find out. Modern sports are anyway developing according to the level of competition (sports shoes). In the past, we could exercise individually or maintain our own culture by country, but now that the world is one, we are not competitive unless we play." -Do you think we can accept the technical part of North Korean Taekwondo to further develop Taekwondo? "It's different to just demonstrate and actually compete. That's why it's hard to evaluate the skill level of North Korean Taekwondo just by looking at the screen. In Taekwondo, eye development is more important than technical problems when someone kicks or punches. All nervous systems need to develop and detect quickly. No one knows about that until they compete with each other. The basics of Korean Taekwondo have changed as it becomes a game. That's why some argue that the north is better in terms of the basics. Because you didn't play, so it's less deteriorated. To put it simply, you have to relax when you hit, but seeing Taekwondo children these days requires a lot of strength. The same goes for North Korean children. And the question of whether to hit with weight or only with a fist is important. When you hit, you have to put your weight on it to get a strong punch. It's the law of physics that if you have weight and speed, you gain strength, but the players are forgetting it. Also, our players do a lot of stretching legs kicks, but you can't do that. You have to lift your knee first to get a proper kick. Even when you do a spin kick, your whole body has to turn, not just your feet, but there are not many players who do it properly. That's why speed and power are bound to drop. There are a lot of things to fix when I see the players playing these days, but it's become a habit and it's very hard to correct them." -Chairman Kim Un-young recently said he would invite Choi Hong-hee. Think there is a possibility that the two will meet. "Well, I don't know what's going to happen. I feel like it's a vague political gesture. What would we do now? There are still power struggles between the rich and the poor." Immediately after liberation, there were numerous factions in the Korean martial arts community. They each opened their own stamps, and it is said that many taught karate. Vice President Lee most actively suggested the idea of integrating them, and was in charge of working-level work with former Vice President Eom Un-kyu and the late Lee Nam-seok. So I know in detail the process of Taekwondo being made more than anyone else. - Some books show that after liberation, about 40 factions were scattered, and they united them together to create a new framework for Taekwondo. "Not up to 40." Guidance Officer Cheongdo Officer Mudeokgwan Song Officer Changmugwan Odogwan.... Including the papa derived from it, nine are the main pillars. First of all, it was organized into nine halls based on the association, but it was difficult because of the government faction. So I insisted on the view of integration. But one person said, "If you do that, it will work for Lee Jong-woo," so I just got the general office of the main building, which is shared by nine buildings on Euljiro 6-ga. I remember all nine tubes coming in with desks and flapping around. Then, I discussed with Kim Un-yeong and completely changed the evidence system that each government had reviewed and applied to the association until then. The general building was abolished and the issuance of a certificate was handed over to the association. After that, the directors couldn't dance, and the association became the standard for Taekwondo. The roots of the faction have not yet completely disappeared, but they are the same as before." .... (Simply) - Many Taekwondo textbooks take the roots of Taekwondo before the Three Kingdoms Period. Even if historical imagination is used, I feel that it is a little unreasonable. "I'm also a person who wrote a book like that. Honestly, there was nothing we could put forward. In the early days, when it comes to traditional Korean martial arts that have existed since ancient times in the process of distributing Taekwondo abroad, it was well-known and worked. But no matter how similar it is, it's different from the truth. In terms of historical origin, it is persuasive to say that Chinese ones entered Japan and Japanese ones entered Korea. Japanese people improved Chinese martial arts a lot and made it scientifically. One problem is that Japanese people made exercise based on muscularity rather than flexibility. So, the movement of the body is bound to harden. We made them compete to play this as a sport. On the other hand, Japanese people left it as a solo exercise without competing, and in China, it developed into a flexible exercise. In that sense, Taekwondo is not either way from an intermediate point of view. To put it simply, it's "Woozi Jwazi". It's not this or that. It's that. But we developed rapidly because we competed. So now China and Japan have learned ours in reverse. Their martial arts are not well supplied, and young children like to hit and receive rather than fight against them." -Did everyone who opened the seal after liberation play karate? "In terms of basic skills, blocking or hitting like this is all the same as karate." -Then, does that mean there is no similarity to our traditional martial arts? "At first glance, it seems like there is, but the basics are completely different. So it should be considered that there is virtually no similarity. Taekkyeon has also changed a lot in modern times. When Taekwondo people learn Taekkyeon, kicks come out in Taekwondo style." -Karate is the only martial arts that influenced the process of Taekwondo making after liberation. Nothing else was reflected at all. "That's an honest answer. I'm a person who wrote a book with all sorts of things, but it's time to reveal them. The directors who teach karate gathered to create a mold for Taekwondo, and I worked on it. "Now that we're at the top of the world, there's no big problem if we reveal it
