Mr. Kedrowski, in your book, The Lost Art of Tang Soo Do, you wrote:
"Also, according to Lee Won Kuk, Hwang Kee was an early student of the Chung Do Kwan. Another early student, Hyun Jong Myung worked with Hwang at the Seoul railroad station and they would work out together. According to Lee, Hwang had some background in the martial arts before he joined the Chung Do Kwan, but did not have any Karate experience. Hwang received the rank of 6th gup, as a Chung Do Kwan member before opening up his own dojang on November 9, 1945."
What or where is your documentation for this information? I ask you because the information looks almost verbatim like some posts I submitted to the taekwondo net mailing list (with some changes), based on conversations that I had with GM LEE Won Kuk and others. As far as I know, no one has stated these things except me. Why is it somehow ok for you to quote me in your book regarding things GM Lee said (without stating the source or your documentation for said information, by the way), but when I do the same thing here, repeat what GM LEE told me, you claim a lack of documentation?
But first things first. What or where is the documentation for the passage from your book quoted above?
