Gangnam and Kukkiwon

After visiting the Hello Kitty Café yesterday, we headed over to Gangnam to visit Kukkiwon, headquarters of World Taekwondo Federation.

There were originally nine schools of taekwondo. What Bryan, Emma and I learned from Grand Master Cole are teachings from the Jidokwan school.

In front of the Korean Federation of Science and Technology building on the way back down hill from Kukkiwon we found this statue of Jang Yeong-Sil, a scientist and astronomer.

 

 This was our last full day in South Korea. Tomorrow afternoon we return home. So, we have our last dinner at the restaurant we enjoyed the most, Busan Galbi.
