About Bong Ki Han
Bong-ki Han (April 26, 1944 – February 10, 2010) is known as founder and creator of WonHwaDo (???).
He pioneered WonHwaDo not only across most parts of his homeland Korea, but also across stretches of Europe as well.
A fiery, philosophical and sometimes controversial character meant that it was often his character as well as his skill that attracted many disciples.
As a martial artist he took from Miyamoto Musashi's idea that true mastery only comes about when one is able to master art, calligraphy, dance as well as other aspects of daily life.
Therefore, WonHwaDo attracted not only those interested in self-defense but also those interested in dance as well as other aspects of Korean Culture such as meditation and Korean style Yoga.
