Pilsung!
After 55 years of living abroad, I am taking a long awaited one to two month vacation to return to my homeland/hometown. To reconnect with the mountains, fields, fresh air, and people. It's been refreshing to my soul to be home.

필숭!
55년간의 해외 생활 끝에, 오랫동안 기다려온 한두 달간의 휴가를 고향으로 떠납니다. 산과 들판, 맑은 공기, 그리고 사람들을 다시 만나기 위해서요. 고향에 오니 마음이 한결 가벼워지는 기분입니다.

Grandmaster asked me (GM Houtz) to pass along these photos of his home.
Take note of the two flags at the entrance. He is so very proud of them. He wanted me to convey that he is in such a good place mentally and spiritually. 55 years has gone by since he left this place. The weather has been absolutely beautiful.
He has been visiting with some of his elementary school friends and is looking forward to reuniting with some of his military buddies.
Pilsung to all of you!
Thank You GM Jung and GM Houtz for sharing these photos.

"Good Job" to GM WooJin Jung, Taekwondo Times publisher. Only instructor in the world promoted to highest rank in both ITF and WTF. Your fair and equal treatment of both organizations is an example to all. At 84 he is still teaching class.

Huge gratitude to Grandmaster Brian Jang for awesome Kukkiwon poomsae seminar and all attendees - it was fantastic to see Kukkiwon, WT, and ITF students, masters, school owners, and instructors unite. Publisher Woojin Jung instructed and spoke of Iowa Taekwondo history. Wearing his Olympic coat from Olympic Games 2018 Winter Olympics in PyeongChang, South Korea.
