[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Go Dallyeong] The Jeonbuk Province City and County Council Chairpersons Association (Chairman Park Byeongsul, hereinafter referred to as the Association) held the 254th monthly meeting at the county office on the 7th, hosted by the Muju County Council (Chairman Yoo Songyeol), to discuss win-win cooperation plans for local autonomy and the development of Jeonbuk.


On this day, the Jeonbuk City and County Council Chairpersons Association adopted the proposal for the "Establishment of an International Taekwondo Military Academy" suggested by the Muju County Council.


Through the proposal, the Association stated, "Despite Taekwondo's domestic and international status, the identity of Taekwondo practitioners is stagnating, and Taekwondo is facing the risk of being removed from the Olympic program." They emphasized the need to expand the base of Taekwondo practitioners, promote our culture globally, and permanently secure Taekwondo as an Olympic sport by fostering global Taekwondo leaders through specialized educational programs, urging the establishment of the 'International Taekwondo Military Academy.'



In particular, the Association plans to send the proposal to related organizations including the Blue House, the National Assembly, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, Jeonbuk Province, Muju County, the Taekwondo Promotion Foundation, the Korea Taekwondo Association, and Kukkiwon.
