These anecdotes prove that originally there was no martial art called taekwondo but there was konsudo, which was taught by people who had learned karate and opened training halls after Japan's occupation ended, with the name konsudo being subsequently changed to 'taekwondo.'
これらはすべて、テコンドーという武術がもともと存在せず、カラテを学んだ人々が解放後に道場を開いてカラテの韓国式発音である「空手道（コンスド）」を教え、後になって「テコンドー」という名前を使うようになったことを物語っている。
