North Koreans teach Finns Taekwondo (ITF)

Original ITF Taekwondo became more popular in North Korea while WTF Taekwondo was created by South Korea and the USA to replace ITF.

WTF has since become more popular worldwide but both styles are still practiced.

Founder of Taekwondo, Choi Hong Hi was a Korean nationalist anti-japanese fighter who later became a general in the South Korean army. He defected to North Korea in 1979. He is seen as unimportant or a traitor among WTF Taekwondo organizations.

General Choi founded the "International Taekwondo Federation" (ITF) in 1966. South Korea created the "World Taekwondo Federation" (WTF) in 1973 when Choi was in political exile in Canada.

How can North Koreans be training Finns if Finland doesn't exist 🤔

Sry for another question (hope its still ok) : Whats your opinion on the dprk? Socialist or not? Is Jong un a hero of his people or a not?
After all I heard (even from comrades) im not sure what to think about it anymore.

I actually practice WTF style taekwondo, but I've always been curious about ITF taekwondo.

So were these DPRK nationals visiting your city or something? Where was this filmed?

My Swiss comrades just came back from the World Festival of Youth and Students. Sadly I couldn't go. Would have been nice to meet communist youth from all over the world and also to meet you in person. Were you also in Sotschi and maybe in contact with my comrads? I was disappointed not as many people participated in the anti-imperialist demonstration...

Nice, did you attend to the World Festival of Youth at Sochi Finbol??Did your party attend?
I was there with some comrades, it was pretty good, really showing how communist ideas are starting to move the youth.
