    U-NAM / WOO-NAM TUL

    by Grandmaster C.K. Choi

    U-Nam/ Woo-Nam is the pseudonym for the First President of the Republic of Korea, Dr. Syngman Rhee
    [1948-1960], who approved Tae Kwon Do as a Korean Martial Art.

    General Choi created U-Nam/ Woo-Nam Tul to honor President Rhee’s contribution to Tae Kwon Do.
    Unfortunately, President Rhee was forced to resign due to the nationwide protests against his government in
    1960 and U-Nam/ Woo-Nam Tul was not included as one of the Tae Kwon Do Tuls.

    Due to the continued interest in U-Nam/ Woo-Nam Tul, Grand Master C. K. Choi studied and rehearsed the
    original copy that General Choi wrote in Korean, which was published in his Tae Kwon Do book in Korean
    in 1959. Based on his experience in assisting General Choi with creating Gae-Baek Tul in 1961, Grand Master
    Choi found the original copy to be a draft.

    In order to preserve the legacy of U-Nam/ Woo-Nam Tul, Grand Master C K Choi has finished completing
    the U-Nam/ Woo-Nam Tul with minimal changes so as to adhere to General Choi’s Tul creation standards
    [techniques withstanding], i.e. to stay on the diagram while performing movements, to finish the Tul on the
    same spot where it started, and to perform the Tul in a natural sequence with grace and beauty.

    The U-Nam/ Woo-Nam TUL is for all levels of black belt.
