Dan-Gun

Dan‑Gun is a focused, instructor‑level exploration of Taekwon‑Do’s second Chang‑Hon pattern. It traces the legend of Dangun Wanggeom, founder of the first Korean kingdom, and shows how his story shapes the pattern’s spirit, symbolism, and technical execution. The book blends history, philosophy, biomechanics, and practical application, giving students and instructors a clear understanding of why the 21 movements are performed the way they are and how they express the theme of rising, identity, and national origin.
