Sorry Randy, I think that is Jae Shul Shim, not Kim, but i could be wrong.
Hi Randy,
He studied under Grandmaster Whang Kee, when he was stationed in Korea. And Jae Chul Kim(I belive that is correct).

Hi Aric,

Hi Eric,
Yes , some of the empty hand style have been around alot longer than in Japan. True empty hand entered(as we know it today) Japan in 1922, with Funakoshi. As with all countries, Japan had some sort of fighting style, but to say the Korean...

- Hi! We were ITF, but from what I've heard, back in the eighties our dojang was harrassed rather heavily by the FBI because of Grandmaster Kim's ties to Korea. Apparently, each class, agents would show up and start taking down names. Master Kim severed his ties to ITF at that time. I'd like to know more about the situation, but there's probably a lot better left untold. I know that he used to train under General Choi. I wonder if he was sorry to break away from him.
