The Ch'ang-Hǒn School

 (Ch'ang-Hǒn Yu)

Ch'ang-Hǒn or "blue cottage" is the author's pseudonym.  The hallmark of this school is the combination of fast and slow, light and forceful movements together with extensive footwork.  The name, the number of the movements, as well as the diagrammatic representation of each pattern has a specific significance, which symbolizes its namesake or relevance to same historical event.

GOLD	Ch'un-ji:  means literally the "Heaven and Earth".  It is, in the Orient, interpreted as the creation of the world, or the beginning of human history.  Therefore, it is the initial pattern played by the beginner.  This pattern consists of two similar parts - one to represent the Heaven and the other the earth.
ORANGE	Tan-Gun:  is named after the Holy Tan-Gun, the legendary founder of Korea in the year of 2334 B.C.

BLUE	Yul-Gok:  is the pseudonym of a great philosopher and scholar Yi l (1536-1584) nicknamed the "confucious of Korea".  The 38 movements of this pattern refer to his birthplace on 38o latitude and the diagram () represents "scholar".
HIGH     BLUE	Chung-Gǔn:  is named after the patriot An Chung-Gǔn who assassinated Hiro-Bumi Ito, the first Japanese governor-general of Korea, known as the man who played the leading part of the Korea-Japan merger.  There are 32 movements in this "pattern" to represent Mr. An's age when he was executed at Lui-Shung prison(1910).
RED	T'oi-Gye:  is the pen name of the noted scholar Yi Hwang (16th century A.D.), an authority of neo-confucianism.  The 37 movements of the pattern refer to his birthplace on 37o latitude, the diagram  represents "scholar".
HIGH     RED	Hwa-Rang:  is named after the Hwa-Rang youth group, which originated in the Silla Dynasty about 1350 years ago.  This group eventually became the actual driving force for the unification of the three kingdoms of Korea.
BROWN	Ch'ung-Mu:  was the given name of the great Admiral Yi Sun-Sin of the Yi Dynasty.  He was reputed to have invented the first armoured battleship (kǒbuksǒn) in 1592 A.D., which was the precursor of the present day submarine.
