So what is the origin of TKD

[jim777]

Thanks


And don't EVER let me catch ANY of you in the CMA forum asking lineage questions :ticked: :uhyeah:

Just kidding

I think it's a tribute to you that this is the only recent memory TKD history thread without any blood letting in it

I still don't actually Like I've alluded before "if it helps me punch harder, I'm all for it... if not.. then it's an idle curiosity but I don't take it too seriously", but that's just because of where my focus lies. Others have different interests

I was like that too... when I was closer to 30 than 50 and single

Personally, I'm happy with the modern history of Taekwondo. Trying to link it to subok or taekyeon is beyond the scope of my studies at this point in time.

Intersting topic.

Historically speaking, what I'd really like to know is if frankfurters really come from Frankfurt, and if hamburgers really come from Hamburg. No one ever touches that subject, so there must be a reason. Just sayin'

:lol:

Well I know it has something to do with Japanese Occupation in WWiII...it always comes back to that


Although I don't know if that's the occupation of China...or Italy

 

[jim777]

I thought the Japanese occupation of Italy was what brought us spaghetti? If it's really pizza, then I slept through more classes than I thought :lol: I guess it also plays a role in the origin of Sake, which is just bad Japanese Pinot Grigio :lol:

YET

Yes, as an aside, I will say this -- there is ONE place in my city where you can get a RIGHTEOUS pizza pie! I mean a pizza that will turn your head! Me and my weightlifting buddy are going to go there again someday and put one away! Oh, you people have made me hungry now!

Yes, it was in the middle of the end of the opening third of WW 1 5/16th. I'm pretty sure it was in all the papers...

I thought it was during the Euro-Asia Wars (aka the 76 Second Nightmare).

That's because you forgot to convert to metric

Ok back to something useful, did the korean design TKD or did TKD design the Koreans?

Now that is an interesting question but I imagine you would have to know a lot about Korean culture prior to the appearance of TKD and Korean Culture after. And I know very little about Korean culture
