Thanks for your comment!
The style being shown is Moo Duk Kwan Taekwondo. There were several ways we would practice the poomsae, one of which my master called "dynamic tension." And I assure you, that method of practice is exhausting. Especially when you're doing multiple poomsae in a row.
That being said, I could have sworn I took out the scene where Aurum was practicing from Keumgang... Do you have an old version? Or did I mention the Taegeuk forms elsewhere?
I'm at the ch 3 -4 of the first season, so rather unsure what scene you are mentioning. As for our style - traditional, I guess? You can google taegeuk Iljang for the first form of poomsae to see what we practiced.
P.S. just googled moo duk kwan taegeuk form 1 - still got iljang. Can you post a link to a video of what you practiced? Had me curious for what it worth.
Oh, the Taegeuk system I believe is used across all 9 kwans, or schools, of traditional Taekwondo after it evolved from its grandfather art, Taekkyon. From what I understand, the five original schools were:
After the Korean War, 4 more kwans were added:
And then, of course, you have ITF Taekwondo, founded in 1966, which I have an extremely low opinion of. Blame Hwoarang from Tekken for this. His hands are all over the place like some braindead ballerina. Baek Doo San, also from Tekken, uses Moo Duk Kwan, and his techniques are SO much more crisp.
Now, I could be wrong about this, but I believe all nine kwans use the Taegeuk system. So Taegeuk Iljang I THINK should be the first form you learn in any of these styles. They used to use the Palgwae forms for the colored belts in the original five kwans, but when more kwans joined the organization, they were considered deprecated and created the Taegeuk forms to better represent input from all kwans. My school still made black belts learn the Palgwae forms starting at 2nd Dan in addition to the black belt forms.
It might be worth asking your master or anyone who might know which kwan your lineage follows!
And the scene I'm referencing was a scene when Aurum was practicing 2nd Dan Form Keumgang. That was taken out in the 1.0 version of the game. I was curious as to where I had left mention of the Taegeuk forms in the game because I thought it was in that scene, which shouldn't be in the game anymore lol
Would love to have ya in the Discord if ya have one! I'm much more responsive there.
