Moo Duk Kwan® Heritage Membership Program Update #5

In this update, the Kwan Jang Nim, H.C. Hwang, remembers and speaks about the Moo Duk Kwan® history during the Prime Growth era, from 1954 to 1961.  The next video will continue to present the history of the Moo Duk Kwan® to include personal memories of the Kwan Jang Nim.  This hopefully will support our Heritage Program membership and lay out our historical foundations for those connected with the Founder through the Moo Duk Kwan®.

Personal Message from Kwan Jang Nim H.C. Hwang

"Shipley Sa Bom Nim was a special friend of mine since I met him in 1965. He spoke, wrote and understood the Korean culture more than native Koreans in some areas.  He is great part of our living history of the Art and loyal to the Moo Duk Kwan by his actions. He will be truly missed by children, young men and women, and all ages worldwide." -- H.C. Hwang
