==== The phases of a movement ====
In TUL and MATSUGI it is important to finish well executed techniques. Therefore, we see a technique a
closer look. 

Ex: we perform ORUN GUNNUN SOGI, NAJUNDE BAKKAT PALMOK MAKGI. 

:*'''The first phase''' is the preparatory phase: we progress forward and we put the defense. During this phase, we use an
undulating motion to develop speed. 
:*'''The second phase''' is the moment of impact: this is the moment when with the part of the body that performs
the defense the object to be blocked, is hit. At the time of the impact our body is tensed in order to pass on
the power and speed which we have developed, through the part of the body that carries out the blocking, to
the object to be blocked. 
In short, we need to move that we developed in the first phase to the end. 
It is important that both the motion with the legs and the arm movement and respiration at the same time
holding up. Only in this case it is possible to carry out a powerful technique. 
:*'''The final phase''' is the phase of the relaxation of the muscles because the defense has already happened. Just
like the muscles are relaxed we can use the next move.

==== THE DYNASTIES ====
Current North and South Korea earlier consisted of three dynasties: the Koguryo, Baekje and Silla Dynasty.:[[File:Silla.png|thumb|right|150px]]
:*Koguryo (37 B.C. to 668 A.D.)
:*Paekje (18 to 600 B.C. A.D.)
:*Silla (57 to 935 B.C. A.D.)

Silla unified the kingdoms together by winning the war against Paekje in 660 AD and Koguryo in 668 AD. What followed was a time of peace and HwaRang grew a military organization to a group specialized in poetry and music. 

In 936 AD when Wang Kon founded the Koryo dynasty, an abbreviation of Koguryo. The Korea KoryoIn name derives from the Silla Dynasty, the principles of Taekwondo began as the youth group Hwarang DO. At that time was called the martial that this group performed albeit still Taekyon and SOO BIN GI because of the name "Taekwon-do 'was still a long way. 

Modern Taekwondo is a combination of many other martial arts. The most important of these is the Japanese Karate. This is because Japan occupied Korea from 1910 to the end
of the 2nd World War II. during the WWII, lots of Korean soldiers were trained in Japan. This occupation Japan tried all traces of Korean culture, including to eliminate the
traditional martial arts. The influence that the Karate to the Taekwondo has enriched the quick, linear movements that characterize the various Japanese.

After World War II, when Korea became independent, several kwans arose. These were:
:*Chung Do Kwan
:*Moo Duk Kwan
:*Yun Moo Kwan
:*Chang Moo Kwan
:*Oh Do Kwan
:*Ji Do Kwan
:*Chi Do Kwan
:*Song Moo Kwan 

The Kwan united in 1955 as Tae Soo Do. In the beginning of 1957, the name Taekwondo was set equal to the name Tae Kyon by several Korean martial arts masters. 

General Choi Hong-Hi required the army to train Taekwondo. Thus the first Korean soldiers were Taekwondo students. The police and air force had to learn Taekwondo. At that time Taekwondo was merely a Korean version of Shotokan Karate.
