translated: Hwang Ki, Tangsudo Textbook

Hwang Ki’s 1958 Tangsudo Textbook is one of the first textbooks to be written specifically on Tangsudo (the Korean variant of Karate). Although Hwang’s style of martial arts is still called Tangsudo to this day, its development is very much linked to the development of Taekwondo – Mudeok-kwan was one of the Nine Kwans. Thus, it could be argued that this is the very first book on Taekwondo – beating Choi’s 1959 Taekwondo Textbook by one year.

A copy of the textbook is held by the University of Hawaii in Manoa, and has been scanned and made available to download as a PDF from the university library’s website here: http://evols.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/handle/10524/1073


Hwang Ki and H. C. Hwang wrote a series of four instructional guides for colour belts, published in 1993. The books are relatively short, but nowadays they are quite rare, and so quite expensive to buy, but it is still possible to buy copies of these books on Amazon and eBay.
