There is no real better, only different, and perhaps, better for you. What do you know of both arts? What style of Karate? Who's going to be instructing? What are their credentials like? Have you attended any schools to see what the training's like? What are you hoping to achieve from your training? These are, perhaps, better questions to be asking? Just an opinion though.

Good opinion..Two totally different arts..Visit a couple of schools and judge for yourself..Follow your heart...

From my understanding karate is more in line with tae kwon do as a form, kicking and striking art.

Hapkido is much more. Go check out both, try a few free classes. Watch what the upper ranking belts are doing. Go with your heart on your desires and see what you want to accomplish.
