Exactly, in Kukkiwon terms a 1-3rd Dan is only a trainee and not an instructor yet. In Korea that doesn't happen until they get their 4th Dan and have sat the instructor course at the Kukkiwon.
I respect kkw tkd very much. However, the extra costs and mandatory extra programs schools attach to the pursuit of rank stopped my pursuit of a higher dan ranking. Maybe when we go back to Seoul, I will just test at the kkw.
