9th degree black belt in TKD


Recommended Posts

I was talking to a friend who trains TKD and their class was getting visited by a 9th degree black belt. He was in the Vietnam war. Also, he was a cop in asia and at one point got an ice pick through his leg. Does anybody know who this guy is and if he's really any good?

without more information can't really help you. There are a few 9th dans out there. I have met 2 myself but both were from korea and over 80 years old. Truly impressive for their age though.

Getting a blackbelt just says you have learned the basics and are ready to actually study the form as an art.

That Is Impressive. We have went through the archives in korea and found out that there is only like 50 true 9th dans alive. The archives in korea was searched through by one of my instructors friends

I have been at it for 9 years kicking and punching my way up the ranks now im a blackbelt at the age of 13. Come get me. LOL

Of course those are just the Korean approved 9th dans. There are alot of non korean approved taekwondo people out there.

Long Live the Fighters!

Hey everyone,

I know Hee-ll Cho is a high-ranking figure in Tae Kwon Do. I believe he is 9th Degree, but I could be wrong. I read an article in Black Belt Magazine about him a while back.

A good technique is beautiful but a beautiful technique is not always good.
