In 1983, Kukkiwon started the World Taekwondo Academy to train trainees who wanted to become a master and thereby create the brilliant future of Taekwondo. We have also developed and classified specific curricula for all different masters courses in an effort to truly develop the quality and abilities of Taekwondo masters. As a result, we have produced 5 million masters, fulfilling our mission to produce Taekwondo masters who shall perform their best as future leaders of Taekwondo.
