Download A Killing Art: The Untold History of Tae Kwon Doe AudioBook Free
Obscure documents, Korean-language catalogs, and in-depth interviews with tae kwon do pioneers notify the story of the origin of the most popular martial art. In 1938, tae kwon do commenced at the end of a poker game in a tiny town in a distant corner of what's now North Korea by Choi Hong-Hi, who commenced the martial art, and his nemesis, Kim Un-Yong, who developed the Olympic style and became one of the most powerful, questionable men in sports activities. The story uses Choi from the 1938 poker game where he fought for his life, through high-class geisha houses where the art was named, and in to the Vietnam War where in fact the martial art evolved into a killing art. The techniques trim across all realms - from the late 1960s when tae kwon do trained Korean CIA brokers kidnapped people in america and Europe to the 1970s when Bruce Lee, Chuck Norris, and other Hollywood superstars mastered the art's new kicks. Tae kwon do is also a martial art for the 21st hundred years, one of merciless techniques, indomitable men, and justice pumped on steroids.
