By Eric MadisTaekwondo ( t’aegwondo, kicking and punching way/art) is a Korean martial art and combative sport distinguished by kicks, hand strikes, and arm blocks. Its sanctioned history claims that taekwondo is 2,000 years old, that it is descended from ancient hwarang warriors, and that it has been significantly influenced by a traditional Korean kicking game called taekyon. However, the documented history of taekwondo is quite different. By focusing solely on what can be documented, the following essay links the origins of taekwondo to 20th century Shotokan, Shudokan, and Shito-ryu karate, and shows how the revised history was developed to support South Korean nationalism. 1904; Description: King ‘Kojong’ (left) and his son & heir (the future king)’ Sunjong’ are shown in full ceremonial dress of the Great Han.Imperial Japan began its domination of Korea and Manchuria in the 1890s.

Both Russia and China unsuccessfully attempted to control Japan’s expansion into the region. The Japanese victory in the Russo-Japanese War (1904-1905) resulted in the Treaty of Portsmouth, which placed Korea under the “guidance, protection and control” of Japan (Harrison, 1910: 499). Finally, on August 29, 1910, King Sunjong (ruled 1907-1910) of the Yi Dynasty (1389-1910) was forced to abdicate his throne, thereby completing Japan’s annexation of Korea (Lee and Wagner, 1984: 313).Japan’s colonization of Korea lasted from 1910 to 1945.

Japanese policy towards the Korean populace was guided by factors such as Japan’s economy, Japan’s international situation, and the policies of individual governors-general (Lee and Wagner, 1984: 346). Therefore, treatment of Koreans varied from paternalism to severe repression (Breen, 1998: 103-115; Korean Embassy, 2000). At all times, however, Koreans were treated as second-class citizens.

Many Korean Martial Artist Worked for the Railway, most notable Hwang Kee founder of the Moo Duk KwanUnder Japanese rule, the Koreans were compelled to participate in Japanese imperialism (Breen, 1998: 105). Nearly one million Koreans emigrated to Manchuria (Schumpeter, 1940: 70). Some worked in agriculture while others worked in mining, petroleum, and heavy industry.

The primary employer was the South Manchurian Railway ( 南鐵), a huge, multifaceted Japanese company, similar to the British East India Company, which spearheaded Japanese expansion into Manchuria and northern China (Harries and Harries, 1991).

Furthermore, police forces in Manchuria were largely comprised of Koreans (Jones, 1949: 33).By 1940, another million Koreans resided (sometimes involuntarily) in Japan (Schumpeter, 1940: 70), and during World War II, this number grew to as many as 2.4 million (Chin, 2001: 59). The majority of them worked in factories or coal mines.

Many Koreans served in the Japanese military, while others involuntarily served Japanese war efforts as laborers or “comfort women” (Breen, 1998: 113)Conversely, some affluent Koreans chose to send their children to preparatory high schools and universities in Japan, both for education and to establish the peer relationships necessary for success in Japanese-dominated society (Lee, 2002a).OKINAWAN KARATE COMES TO JAPAN. 船越 義珍 Funakoshi Gichin, November 10, 1868 – April 26, 1957After participating in an exhibition of Japanese martial arts in April 1922, Okinawan educator and karate adept Funakoshi Gichin (1868-1957) remained in Tokyo. Later that year, Funakoshi began teaching karate at the Okinawan student dormitory ( meisi juku) at Japan University in Tokyo (Funakoshi, 1975: 69-71).

Interest in karate grew steadily, allowing Funakoshi to establish a training hall (Japanese, dojo; Korean, dojang) at Keio University in 1924 and another at Tokyo University in 1926. Between 1928 and 1935, Funakoshi established more than 30 dojo, most of which were at educational institutions (Cook, 2001: 76; Funakoshi, 1975: 75).Growing interest in karate encouraged other Okinawan instructors to move to Japan. Examples include Uechi Kanbun (1877-1948) in 1924, Mabuni Kenwa (1889-1952) in 1928, Miyagi Chojun (1888-1953) in 1928, and Toyama Kanken (1888-1966) in 1930 (McCarthy and McCarthy, 1999: 18, 126). Mabuni established dojo in Osaka, including several at universities. Toyama established the Tokyo Shudokan in 1930 and taught at Nihon University.

It was in these Japanese university clubs that some Korean students studied the arts that would become the foundation of future Korean karate styles.The introduction of karate to Okinawan public schools began in 1901 (Bishop, 1989: 102). The pioneer was Itosu Ankoh (1832-1915). A leader and innovator from the Shorin-ryu (Shaolin school) karate lineage, Itosu not only modernized, but created many of the forms (Japanese: kata; Korean: hyung) that are practiced in karate today. Examples include the pinan (peaceful mind; in Japanese: heian; in Korean: pyongahn) kata, which were a series of five forms designed to advance students from beginning to intermediate level in a class setting (Cook, 2001: 52). Itosu also taught and mentored many of the major figures of modern karate, including Funakoshi, Mabuni, and Toyama. In addition, Itosu embraced the promotion of karate as a means of developing Japanese spirit ( yamato damashi), which contributed to karate’s acceptance and popularity in Japan (Bishop, 1989: 103; Cook, 2001: 25)Yabu Kentsu (1866-1937), who was a student of Matsumura Sokon (1809-1901) and Itosu, also had a profound influence on modern karate training. A former officer in the Japanese army, Yabu introduced many procedures still practiced in karate schools worldwide, including the Korean styles.

Early names for karate acknowledged its origins in southern Shaolin quanfa. Examples include Ryukyu kenpo (Okinawan quanfa), toudi (China hand), and karate-jutsu (China hand method) (Funakoshi, 1922/1997; McCarthy and McCarthy, 2001: 22, 27, 69). However, Japanese nationalists objected to students training in a martial art with a foreign name. Therefore, in 1935, Funakoshi changed to ideograms that were still pronounced karate-do (empty hand way), but that alluded to Rinzai Buddhism rather than China (Funakoshi, 1935/1973; Guttmann and Thompson, 2001; 147; McCarthy and McCarthy, 2001: 22, 27; Redmond, 2000).

In Korean, the ideograms meaning “China hand way” are pronounced “ tangsoodo,” while the ideograms for “empty hand way” are pronounced “ kongsoodo.”. Kim’s tactics reportedly included bribery of international sports officials and fight fixing (Jennings, 1996: Chapter 10; S.

Korea’s sports chief, 2002).NOTES:1.

Smith, Joseph Svinth, and Takaku Kozi.1. During 1923 and 1924, Funakoshi Gichin conducted karate classes in the kendo dojo of Nakayama Hakudo (1859-1958). Nakayama was the 16th headmaster of Muso Jikiden Eishin Ryu (Shimomura branch), and at the time, he was arguably Japan’s best-known living swordsman.1.

In North America, Jidokwan is sometimes transliterated Chidokwan. This latter romanization was popularized by S. Henry Cho, a student of Yun and a major proponent of the style in the United States (Burdick, 1997/1999; Cho, 1968: 1).1 Yun Kwei Byung was usually called Yun Gekka by his Japanese friends and students.(Nakamura, 2000; Marchini and Hansen, 1998; Hwang, 1995: 39-40; Takaku Kozi, personal communication, October 12, 2000)1. Chaoyang is in northeastern China, about 250 miles northeast of Beijing. (The precise location is 41.55 o N, 120.42 o E.) From 1932 until 1945, it was part of Japanese-controlled Manchukuo, but today it is in China’s Liaoning Province.1. Although Warrener claims this film dates to 1924, Harry Cook (2001: 303), Graham Noble (personal communication, July 2000), and Patrick McCarthy (McCarthy and McCarthy, 2001: 131) state that it is early 1930s. Their evidence includes text in the background that describes the emperor as Showa (1926-1989) rather than Taisho (1912-1926).1.

About this text, John Della Pia (1994: 70) writes, “In a book of nearly three hundred pages, only sixteen deal with empty-hand fighting and most of the quoted sources in this section are Chinese. With the exception of Hwang Kee’s modern interpretations none of the martial arts taught as ‘Korean’ today can show a direct connection to this book.”1. Kim’s tactics reportedly included bribery of international sports officials and fight fixing (Jennings, 1996: Chapter 10; S. Korea’s sports chief, 2002).
