The Korea Taekwondo Association ("KTA") is the
National Governing Body ("NGB") for Taekwondo in the
The World Taekwondo Federation ("WTF") which was
formed in 1973, is made up of Taekwondo NGBs. These NGBs are members of the
WTF, and not individuals. Individuals may be affiliated to the WTF through
their NGB, but individuals cannot join the WTF directly.
Dr. Un Yong Kim became the 5th President of the KTA in 1971.
Dr. Kim subsequently became the 1st and only President of the WTF in 1973 and
around 1990 he gave up the post of KTA President.
Gen. Choi Sae-Chang became the 6th KTA President after Dr. Kim stepped down due to his expanded responsiblities in the International Sports community. Mr. Choi was a former four star general in the ROK Army and also held the post of Defense Minister. Mr. Choi was replaced by Mr. Rhee, Pil Gon in 1996. The KTA is alive and well and probably is the largest, most active NGB for Taekwondo in the world.
