apparently a hybrid style designed by a Vietnamese gentleman. Cuong is vietnamese for hard, and nhu means soft.

It sounds pretty interesting.

its a hybrid style, i took it at my chinese school and the teacher sucked ass so i quit. i think it has mainly karate, some aikido, some boxing, etc. and its vietnamese

VIETNAMESE! that's it! not Taiwanese! I know someone named Cuong (KOO-NG)...so his name is "hard" huh? interesting.

The Vietnamese language uses a lot of accents for each letter and for different combinations of letters. So if that guy's name is spelled the same way it could still be very different. There are even three dialects, for the north, middle, and south.
