About Kuk Sool Won™

Korean Vocabulary

Since Kuk Sool Won's™ primary philosophy is the preservation of Korean culture, it is natural that its members would speak the Korean language. All Kuk Sool Won™ practitioners, therefore, use Korean phrases and commands during practice. Proficiency with particular terms is often required to successfully pass belt tests.
