Number of Movements:
30

Advancement:
This pattern is performed at 1st Gup level.

Definition:
Choong-Moo was the name given to the great Admiral Yi Soon-Sin of the Joseon Dynasty. He is credited with improving what is reputed to have been the first armoured battleship (Kobukson) in 1592, which is said to be the precursor to the modern day submarine. The 30 movements of this pattern represent the number of ships Choon-Moo destroyed (out of a fleet of 333), with only 13 of his own ships, at the battle of Myeongnyang. The reason this pattern ends in a left hand attack is to symbolise his regrettable death, having no chance to show his unrestrained potentiality, checked by the forced reservation of his loyalty to the king.
