5:16 Oh my God 0.0!!!!! It took me so long to realize!! This was the first German Open Championship in Cologne!! The person on the outer left, with the long, blonde hair and blue-red belt, that's me!! Bonjour de l'Allemagne, mes amis francais!!
I have very limited experience with weapons (save for some staff training) as I have trained almost exclusively in unarmed styles. However, I've always been fascinated with swordsmanship of many kinds, and I would love to take up this particular style. I'm going to be moving further south soon, and the area I'm moving to just so happens to have a school that teaches this martial art. I can't really do much of the intense stuff involving unarmed martial arts anymore due to a degenerative spine from an injury to my back that has proven difficult to manage doing most punches, kicks, and other striking, and also makes taking a fall more dangerous for me. The way I see it, this style of swordsmanship could be an opportunity to continue pursuing my passion for martial arts. Who knows, I might even reach my dream goal of teaching martial arts one day. Thank you for this video further explaining what this style is and how it can benefit someone like me. I'm really looking forward to hopefully getting started!
A movie called "Sword in the Moon" got me interested in the history of Korean swordmaking and swordsmanship. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with demonstrations and good humor.
Korean swordsmanship was always horrible, even admitted by Joseon annals and Chinese records. Koreans dropped it off completely and moved to Archery. These new movies are just what Koreans hoped their history would be.
@@samuelmonge1656 Relax mate, no need to make it personal, unless you are a butthurt Korean nationalist. Gumdo is copy of WW2 Japanese Kendo, no more, no less. I don't have anything against Koreans, I am fan of its culture, but recently they have really started to rewrite the history. I read the Annals of Joseon written by Koreans themselves, were it is clearly stated that they didn't have advanced swordsmanship akin to the Chinese and Japanese, that's why the Chinese Muyedobotongji was needed after the Imjin War. Korean scholars state that Korean swords are like blunt short twigs compared to the Japanese ones, and it was one of the top priorities to capture as many of the Japanese weapons as possible. Regarding Silla, can you please share the link or a name of the document with the "epic" Korean swordsmanship that China included in its sword techniques? Regarding the Bek Dongsu...he used the skills of Japanese and Chinese swordsmanship from Muyedobotongji as late as in 18th century. By all accounts he was a good swordsman, but the teaching themselves were not of Korean origin. And finally Kim Yushin...yes, the Hwarang leader who was said to be a very good swordsman, its like choosing 1 skilled person in an entire country and saying that "whole" nation is full of skilled swordsmen.
I watched kingdom a Korean show series of zombies attacking Korea in a older time and it makes sense now because of the fighting style based on fighting multiple opponents like the movie
Thanks, nice video. I've also studied kummooyeh (korean sword), it also from Haidong Gumdo, this art is beautiful, it also complies with my Aikido studies
As a Korean who absolutely loves France, I'm so stunned and glad that Haidong Gumdo has spread its way to France. Thank you for this informative video!
I am curious about Haidong Gumdo is the techniques based on Ming dynasty influence since the Japanese did invade Korea "Imjin war". I have heard that a Ming general named Li Rusong taught the Korean army sword techniques.
thats true. other than mings general li rusong 李如松, kim che-gong (金体乾) earnestly learned japanese swordsmanship, and intoroduced some of them to joseon. "임진왜란 때 왜구들이 긴 칼을 휘두르면 막을 자가 없다고 할 정도로 왜검 (倭劔) 은 그 위력이 대단하였다. 우리나라에서는 숙종 때 김체건 (金体乾)이 일본에 들어가 검보(劍譜)를 얻어 그 기예를 전하였다고 한다. 왜검에는 토유류(土由流) · 운광류(運光流) · 천류류(千柳流) · 유피류(柳彼流)의 네 종류가 전하고 있다." (왜검 倭劍, weageum)
I was thinking of trying Haidong Gumdo, but after watching the clip I am excited to go to next Wednesday's practise. Very fun video. Maybe consider making an entertainment channel you are very fun to watch.
Nobody walks around with a sword? I'll do it and carry my AR-15 to boot ;) (Just so you know...it's completely and utterly annoying to do. It gets in the way, bounces around and generally does everything it can to distract you from enjoying your hiking)
I’ve been using weapons for years now. But about 2-3 months ago I started this martial art. I would normally do kali with my teacher Dan Berry. But he slowed down on that because new students are in and he really only did it for me because I loved it. And I’m trying to decide. Should I find a kali class. Or continue to do this. Right now I have master Parnell. This two are in Slc UT if you want to look them up.
Vous avez l’air d’être un beau club. Je pratique depuis 1 an et demi maintenant, c’est mon premier art martial et c’est clairement celui qui me correspond pour un peu toutes les raisons évoquées ici. Ca fait plaisir de voir des vidéos en cette période de confinement. L’entraînement manque vite
Je vous remercie pour ce message! Cela motive à aller plus loin et à faire plus de contenu. Je suis aussi heureux de savoir que le haidong gumdo vous plaît, où pratiquez vous? Vivement la fin du confinement qu'on puisse tous reprendre l'entrainement, Haidong!
Je pratique à Montpellier. Mon club reste aussi très actif en organisant toutes sortes de concours, de jeux et de révisions. Le lien tissé est fort et ça permet de garder la motivation
Gumdo or kumdo meens both way of the sword. "Kumdo" alone is the translation of japanese "kendo" and this is the same martial art. "Haidong Gumdo" is way more korean original swordmanship and deep rooted in korean history.
Chinese martial arts that use swords are more suited to Korean culture than Japanese martial arts that use swords. Japanese swordsmanship does not raise one knee high like a kung fu master. Japanese Kenjutsu do not brandish swords. Japanese Kenjutsu do not jump with swords. Also, Japanese swordsmanship is so advanced that it is difficult for modern people. Even for Japanese people.
Japanese Kenjutsu is much more advanced and difficult than you might think, and it's also plain. Please come and learn the original martial arts, not the martial arts created by Koreans. Alternatively, if you are looking for flashiness, learning Chinese swordsmanship is more valuable than Komdo, as it has a longer history and practicality.
@@valiantia thank you for your advices please show me the good way... But what is your name? What is your style? Who is your Master why should we listen to you? Please share your curriculum and identity
I'm commenting because it's a shame that passionate people in France don't know the original. Japan's highest level grandmaster, Tetsuzan Kuroda, has visited France many times to give seminars. Once you experience his incredible technique, you'll understand why I recommend original. No athlete can ever react to his movements, which are as precise as a machine. You can learn the method at the seminar. th-cam.com/video/v_KvEezbBdA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=wW0qjpDXcPuRmDYl th-cam.com/video/0Aak3kd8VFc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=dfz2_0kF1BsF-gEP th-cam.com/video/gghVniRMEv0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=iRNgZ1rbOe6eyQ-p th-cam.com/video/mgyEulqaddY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=OiqBhGQ5c40qu4g1
Ah ben confirmation en fin de vidéo ! Je suis dans le club de savate au même endroit, c'est toujours très intéressant de voir vos entraînements en parallèle. Je serais pas déjà pris dans trois disciplines je viendrais faire un tour chez vous ;)
The predecessors of taekwondo and hapkido evolved karate and aikido, and the predecessors of komdo degenerated Japanese swordsmanship. Karate and Aikido players will be impressed by Taekwondo and Hapkido, but Japanese swordsmanship players will laugh at the ridiculousness of Komdo.
Gumdo style focuses on fighting multiple opponents all around you. Japanese Kendo focuses on a quick duel. The Korean sword is slightly wider than a katana. I practiced Gumdo for 6 years and it was fun. But, it is not something most people do for long.
The katana, exactly as you see it, was developed in Korean,. The Japanese adopted the style and, as they are known for, making it better. There really is no such thing as a "Korean sword" since they were built to the owner's wishes unlike the katana which had a standard shape but the length of the blade varied.
@@KaptainCanuck not true at all, Katanas devolved from tachi from the 10th century, Korean "katana looking swords" appeared around 16th century after the Samurai invasion. Koreans taught Japanese the Chinese metallurgy around 5th century, but Japanese quickly became better than Koreans, and Katana is 100% original Japanese weapon that Koreans later copied due to its efficiency.
@@wudangmasterlee8123 , Japanese historians have admitted adopting the curved style we all know from Korean. Also, Korean was not a war-mongering nation and most put focus on scholarly and artistic endeavours over warfare.
@@wudangmasterlee8123, believe as you wish. No true martial artist would EVER refer to themselves as "master" or any other honourific, only "keyboard warriors".

This "traditionnal martial art" is 100% modern, inspired by kendo and created after the japanese domination of Korea.
Wrong, if you know kendo and haidong gumdo, you would see that it is totaly différent! Please learn more
C’est géniale avec la su titre en anglais, je partage le vidéo en 🇩🇰
Wait is haidong gumdo the same as kumdo? Or are those different styles Of korean sword arts
kumdo and gumdo are pronounced the same in Korean. But they are different Federations and their arts are somewhat different.
Gumdo or kumdo meens both way of the sword. "Kumdo" alone is the translation of japanese "kendo" and this is the same martial art. "Haidong Gumdo" is way more korean original swordmanship and deep rooted in korean history.
@@sabre.coreen, the correct pronunciation is NOT gumdo OR kumdo, it is koomdo as per the Hangeukmal pronunciation rules. and grammar
K jeong ho is my grandmaster
does this martial art use empty hand techniques?
no, mostly sword an some various grapple/takedowns
This ran too fast to keep up with subtitles
Muito Legal! O Vídeo ficou show!!

Saying something with the word "art" useless is kinda silly to me.

The predecessors of taekwondo and hapkido evolved karate and aikido, and the predecessors of komdo degenerated Japanese swordsmanship.
Karate and Aikido players will be impressed by Taekwondo and Hapkido, but Japanese swordsmanship players will laugh at the ridiculousness of Komdo.
