Here is a short clip of Mas Oyama apparently giving a lesson to TKD practitioners in Korea, circa 1967. I wonder if this is around the time when General Choi tried to bring him into the TKD family. A cool bit of history for those interested in the arts.
There has also been some discussion about how far back the emphasis on high kicking goes. There is some very light sparring in this clip that may help shed some light on this topic. Keep in mind that this is way before the Olympics and during the Vietnam War, were TKD earned a fierce reputation.
