Taebaek


 
Meaning : Taebaek is the name of a mountain with the meaning of "bright mountain", where tangun, the founder of the nation of Korean people, reined the country, and the bright mountain symbolizes sacredness of soul and Tangun's thought of "hongik ingan"(humanitarian ideal). There are numerous sites known as Taeback, but Mt. Paektu, which has been typically known as the cradle of Korean people, is the backgound of naming the Taebek poomsae. New techniques introduced in this poomsae are sonnal arae hecho-makki, sonnal opeo-japki (grabbing), japhin sonmok-ppaegi (pulling out the caught wrist), Keumgang momtong-makki, deungjumeok olgul bakkat-chigi, doltzeogi(hinge), etc. The line of poomsae is like a Chinese letter, which symbolizes the bridge between the Heaven and the earth, signifying human beings founded a nation by the Heaven's order. The poomsae movements are largely composed of momtong-makkis and chigis.
