What do you like about this subject?  Tae Kwon Do has become my passion and my life. I have experimented with various martial arts since i was 8 years of age. After a trial period i found Tae Kwon Do to be what best suited me.
What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?  I strive to become the best martial artist i can possibly be and so i train as often as time permits to become this. I hope that i can follow in my masters footsteps and one day join the elite practitioners of Tae Kwon Do as a 9th Dan Black Belt.
Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:  Tae Kwon Do's earliest form Koguryo can be traced as far back as 37 BC during the Koguryo Dynasty in early Korea.
