I couldn't find begi (or pegi - p and b are often interchangeable when transliterating from Korean) - but I hope this helps.

Could this be 빼기 -> bbegi? I've only taken a week of hapkido so far, but when my instructor says 빼기 he is refering to getting loose from a grab. I have been taught three types of 손빼기 so far. Bbegi means to subtract, or get loose from something.

My GM is pretty good about putting the double consonants into the Romanized Korean words, so I was assuming that it was this: 베기, which would be beh-gee rather than bbae-gee.

I have seen the Romanized 'begi' on HDGD websites, some kumdo websites, and at KMA where I train.
