| Korean-American taekwondo grandmaster Woo Jin Jung raises his fist and shouts “Tongil” – meaning “unification” – after North and South Koreans broke symbolic boards labeled with a map of a divided Korean peninsula during a taekwondo demonstration, May 18th, in Pyongyang, North Korea. Woo Jin Jung was part of a delegation of international taekwondo masters who traveled to North Korea seeking to help reconcile the split that even divides their uniquely Korean martial art.
