Pattern: Choong-Moo
Movements in Pattern: 30
Choong-Moo was the name given to the great Admiral Yi Sun-Sin of the Yi Dynasty. He was reputed to have invented the first armoured battleship [Kobukson] in 1592, which is said to be the precursor of the present day submarine. The reason why this Pattern ends with a left hand attack is to symbolize his regrettable death, having no chance to show his unrestrained potentiality checked by the forced reservation of his loyalty to the king.
