There are several interesting discussions going on re: "Disappearing History" as well as the "Chung Do Kwan and the Kukkiwon."
I think an interesting study could be made here on MT as to the "Evolution" of TKD, especially from those who study under a Shotokan-based Kwan.
What I am interested in is seeing how a student of the WTA under GM Son, Duk Song might perform a technique, poomsae, or even run a class.
Now compare that to a different CDK-based non-KKW oriented such as DarkPhoenix might do the same technique, poomsae, or run a class.
Now compare that to an early Jhoon Rhee, Texas-Karate based student and their experiences.
Now compare that to Exile and his Song Moo Kwan, non-KKW oriented class.
Now compare that to a TSD practitioner and his/her technique, poomsae, class structure.
These students will have a foundationally similar root, but I'd like to see how their practice has evolved away from or toward each other's practice.
Ideally this will require video-if you have some or can furnish a link to demonstrate, it would be appreciated.
