Wang Geon
WanJeonHan taekwondo is variation of traditional taekwondo that also incorporates Judo throws, weapons training, self-defense, and joint locks. The sponsoring organization for WanJeonHan-style taekwondo is the National Taekwondo Association (NTA, not to be confused with the National Taekwon-do Association or the United States National Taekwondo Association). Like the American Taekwondo Association (ATA), the NTA is a franchise organization, though with far fewer franchises.
This form is a WanJeonHan form. Like the ATA, WanJeonHan forms are copyrighted and so rarely appear outside the National Taekwondo Association website. From the NTA website:
- The unpopular Gung Ye was deposed by Wang Geon (877–943) in 918 C.E. Wang Geon was popular with his people, and he decided to unite the entire peninsula under one government. He also conquered the Silla in 935.
