Taebaek 
Dan 3 Black Belt

Third dan, Taebaek, means "sacred/bright mountain" and symbolizes spirituality. Taebaek is the name of a mountain in Korean mythology, from where the legendary founder of Korea, 단군 왕검 (Dan-gun Wanggeom), is thought to have ruled the nation. Numerous places are known as 태백 (Taebaek), one of which is 백두산 (Baekdusan), an iconic mountain on the Korean peninsula. This form venerates this most sacred of mountains. Since this mountain reaches to the sun, Taebaek can be defined as “light” and must be performed with the agility of light.

That way, you can guarantee you are learning the exact form you will be tested on during your next belt test.
