Choi-Yong (Korean: 최영; RR: Choeyeong, Korean pronunciation: [tɕʰwe.jʌŋ]) is the eighteenth Taekwon-Do teul, as defined by the International Taekwon-Do Federation.[1] The pattern consists of 46 movements and is taught to students with the 3rd dan (black belt) and necessary to know to obtain the 4th dan.
Meaning
The pattern is named after Choe Yeong, a 14th century Korean general who stopped a rebellion against his king.[2][3] Moreover, he participated in the Red Turban Rebellions and later allied with the Ming dynasty to overthrow the Mongol Yuan dynasty. General Choi was betrayed and executed by his former subordinate Yi Seonggye, who founded the Joseon dynasty of Korea, bringing an end to the Goryeo period.[4]
Number of movements
It is unclear why the pattern has 46 movements, but it is close to the age around which Choe Yeong resumed his successful military career.[5]
