This is meant as a joke and a can be continue by all others wishing to add to the story, remember lets have fun with this and not get into the real history but a sitcom of sort of how it could have happen.
It was a breath taking am just about 60 years ago when two Korean gentleman stood in the valley gazing at the sunrise. The elder of the two said Henry I am tired of being broke and have nothing to look forward to for retirement. Henry turned his head and said Sang do not worry I have a game plan that I am about to bring to the limelight. A few days have passed and Henry invited several high people in the world of Korean Martial Arts, as they all sat down waiting for this special once in a lifetime meeting, one noticed a word on the table and ask what does this TaeKwonDo mean? Henry looked at him with anticipation and said MONEY and lots of it, again one of the twelve that was their replied how he said by renaming Karate and marketing it to the world as the Ultimate Fighting system. They each turn and looked at him in regards as are you nuts who would believe such a thing? Henry said first we take to the Westerners because they are just plan gullible, one said is twelve men going to be able to market such a style all over America? Henry again looked puzzled and then replied we will send people from here, but we have not trained anybody on this taekwondo, Henry said no-matter when they get there they will just teach them to punch and kick like we do in the streets. So secretly they all agreed, they found one thousand instructor that they trained in two weeks bought them a ticket and away they went to conquer the world. After a few months they started talking about tracking each person Sang said this is easy we rank them from here, the other twelve men thought how do we rank someone we have never seen, he said the same way we gave rank to all those we sent forth into the world to teach these devastating art of teakwondo, if they pay they are. Only after several years and a million people later did they relize that on that day standing in that Valley looking at the sunrise was such a plan could be developed.
Today TKD has evolved into a mainstream art for the masses, the marketing that started out one day has become the most highly regarded ways of mass marketing all of today goods, cheap, inexpensive and just plan if they have the money we have the time syndrome.
