Dr. Jerip Susil, Asst Minister of Public Health in South Korea encourages taekwondo students in their sport to take care of their health in order to help them achieve their goals.
“Taekwondo is a special sport because it needs a lot of movements and this is associated with healthy exercise. It helps not only improve one’s physical condition but more importantly it also helps in your mental capacity,” said Dr. Susil. “Taekwondo is also about respecting your opponents and being able to read their movements so that you can counter their moves during the competition.”
He also hopes visiting teams will visit tourist attractions such as the Semenggok orang utan sanctuary.
