Blue Belt (Joong Gun)
Signifies heaven, toward which the plant matures into a towering tree as training in the Tae Kwon Do progresses.
Joong Gun is named after the patriot An Joong Gun who assassinated Hiro Bumi Ito, the first Japanese governor-general of Korea, known as the man who played the leading part in the Korea-Japan merger. There are 32 movements in this "pattern" to represent Mr An's age when he was executed in Lui Shung prison in 1910.
