Editorial Reviews

In this fascinating tape, the National Demonstration Team of Kyung Dang, led by Grandmaster Im Dong-kyu, reenacts the sword, stick and empty hand arts of the classic Korean martial arts manual, Muye Dobo Tongji. Practiced by the King’s special forces, the arts of Kwon Bup, Ssang Soo Do, Wol Do, Wae Gum, Bon Guk Gum, Jae Dok Gum, Kong Bang, and Ki Chang were adapted from ancient Japanese and Chinese martial skills by Korean warriors during the Yi Dynasty. This is a fascinating look at the ancient martial arts of Korea. Muye Eship Saban Volume One includes demonstrations of the Long Sword, Short Sword, Twin Swords and several traditional Japanese and Korean Sword styles.
