Kwang-Gae (Korean: 광개; RR: Gwanggae, Korean pronunciation: [kwaŋ.kɛ]) is the tenth Taekwon-Do teul, as defined by the International Taekwon-Do Federation.[1] The pattern consists of 39 movements and is taught to students with the 1st dan (black belt) and necessary to know to obtain the 2nd dan.

Meaning

The pattern is named after Gwanggaeto the Great, the 19th King of Goguryeo and lived in the 4th and 5th centuries AD. Under the reign of Gwanggaeto, Goguryeo became one of the great powers in East Asia and conquered lands in contemporary Manchuria, Inner Mongolia, and Primorsky Krai.[2][3][4] Meanwhile, Gwanggaeto defeated Baekje, the then most powerful of the Three Kingdoms of Korea.[5]

Number of movements

The 39 movements of Kwang-Gae refer to the first two numbers of the year Gwanggaeto was proclaimed King of Goguryeo, in 391 AD.[6] He also passed away aged 39.
