Happy Birthday, Taekwon-Do!


On April 11th, 1955, General Choi Hong-Hi founded Taekwon-Do, and the most popular martial art was born! Today is the day that Taekwon-Do was founded 55 years ago! Happy Birthday Taekwon-Do! And in celebration, I am wearing a Taekwon-Do T-Shirt from a 1994 tournament with Joe Bosse doing a split kick on it (and a bunch of other kicks on the back), an 'I Love Taekwon-Do' pin, a bracelet that reads 'Taekwon-Do Black Belt,' a dogtag necklace that says 'Patrica- Black Belt' on it, and a necklace that says 'I Love Taekwon-Do!' I almost wore my Yin-Yang necklace, too, but decided three necklaces was too much. So, do you think I like Taekwon-Do?!
