Taekwondo, as a martial art with a long history, originated from the Korean Peninsula and has undergone evolution and development in many historical stages. Its roots can be traced back to the Goguryeo period before the Common Era, when ancient martial arts forms and fighting skills had already taken shape. As time went on, Taekwondo absorbed the essence of martial arts from China, Japan and other countries, and gradually formed a unique style. In the 1950s, Taekwondo began to move to the international stage, especially after the end of the Korean War, when the South Korean government actively promoted this sport, and Taekwondo gradually became a part of national sports. In 1976, Taekwondo was included in the official competition events of the Olympic Games. This move not only enhanced the international status of Taekwondo, but also made it widely spread and recognized around the world. Today, Taekwondo is not only a competitive sport, but also a symbol of culture, embodying the spirit of courage, respect and self-cultivation. With the popularity of Taekwondo, more and more people have begun to participate in this sport, experiencing the physical exercise and spiritual growth it brings. The influence of Taekwondo has also continued to expand to all parts of the world, becoming an important part of global martial arts culture.
