The patriotic martyrs' cemetery in Pyongyang

The Founder of Taekwon-Do, General Choi Hong Hi lived for Taekwon-Do until the last of his life. At the last few days of his life, he directly taught Guang Ge Pattern to some instructors who visited him.

After General Choi had an operation on his stomach, in spite of the doctors asked him to remain he came back to Canada, and then went to United States in order to conduct a seminar. It was the last seminar in the world. After two months he left this world.

Before not long ago, a vice president of the WTF, Lee Jong Woo spoke crazy remarks to General Choi in public. He jeered at the relationship between General Choi and his son in order to mess up the ITF. Lee's rough tongue completely exposed his ignorant character and gave the WTF a bad image.

Some seniors of the WTF distorted the history of Taekwon-Do and a few of them slandered General Choi's family to cover up the fact of Taekwon-Do and their rottenness. Now, General Choi is gone. They want the ITF break up. But they forgot a fact that Taekwon-Do is immortal, because Taekwon-Do is Choi Hong Hi.

During General Choi's lifetime, he always said that unification Taekwon-Do is the foundation stone to unify Korea. But General Choi never stamps the southern part of Korea for 30 years. He was buried in the northern part of Korea.
