Stumbled on this thread while looking up some enlightened opinions on what DK Yoo does.
I'd like to correct what juany said about the Wing Tai videos: the person seen there is simply not DK Yoo, his name is Mark Stas and he teaches Wing Tai here in Belgium.
I actually asked about Wing Tai on here some years ago, it's a martial art whose founder used to be an instructor at EWTO (don't know which rank he used to hold). He jammed together the Wing Chun and Eskrima stuff he used to teach as a "Crash course" then threw in some kickboxing and called the result "Wing Tai".
I don't like the way they (very) heavily market their art and the general "money hungry" vibe they have. Also it seems that they try to pass it off as an ancient martial art for marketing purposes, the history written by the "founder" on the Belgian website is embarrassing: History of Wing Tai
I don't know WC enough to comment on their moves, though.
