미국에서 특단심사가 있다고 합니다.(2월에)
USAT Announces Historic Kukkiwon Special Dan Testing (USAT는 역사적인 국기원 특단심사를 알린다.)
USA Taekwondo, The USAT Martial Arts Commission and Kukkiwon are pleased to announce the planning of an unprecedented Special Dan Rank Promotion testing event. This testing opportunity will apply to all Kukkiwon ranks from 1st-7th Dan, as may be appropriate for the applicant. This opportunity is only being offered through USA Taekwondo (National Governing Body.) The special promotion tests will apply to the following categories of taekwondo practitioners. (1단에서 7단까지 특단 심사를 하겠다.)
Kukkiwon Rank Recognition Test: Those who have never received a Kukkiwon Dan rank but who have received a Dan rank from a credible taekwondo organization or credible Master/Grandmaster Instructor and are seeking Kukkiwon recognition of the rank they have achieved. (국기원 인증 심사: 국기원 단증이 아닌 다른 단증을 가진 사람들에게 심사후 국기원 단증 발급 )
Skip Dan Test: Those who hold a Kukkiwon Dan rank, but who missed the opportunity (on more than one occasion) to test for subsequent Kukkiwon Dan ranks and would like to bring their Kukkiwon Dan current and will need to skip one or more Dan ranks (up to three ranks) to do so. ( 월단 심사: 예를 들어서 3단인 사람이 몇 년동안 쉬면서 단을 보지 못한 경우 최고 3단계의 단을 뛰어 넘어서 심사를 보게 한다는 심사.)
Time Reduction Test: Those who wish to test for a higher rank, but whose age or time in the current rank do not meet Kukkiwon standards, may test if their overall training and experience otherwise satisfies Kukkiwon''s requirements.( 시간 줄이는 심사: 더 높은 단을 보기를 원하지만 나이나 시간이 국기원의 기준을 만족하지 못한 이들이, 전체적인 훈련과 경험들이 국기원의 요구사항을 만족하게 되면 심사를 보게 될 것이다.)
Kukkiwon will hold a mandatory 12-16 hour Poomsae seminar on the 13th and 14th of February during the U.S. Open in Las Vegas, with testing to occur either later on the 14th or on the morning of the 15th. All applicants shall submit a resume of their martial arts history, complete the Kukkiwon forms, and where applicable submit a copy of their current Dan rank certificate. In addition, 4th Dan to 7th Dan applicants must take the seminar and a physical test, and must submit a thesis on a topic to be assigned. (국기원이 2월 13일 14일에 의무적인 12-16시간의 품새 세니마를 열게 할 것이다. ..... 필요한 것들을 다 제출해야 한다....)
"This is an unprecedented and exciting opportunity for Masters to achieve their deserved Kukkiwon ranks," said USAT CEO David Askinas. "We are hoping to receive a positive response from the taekwondo community so we can schedule the testing event in Las Vegas at U.S. Open."
USAT will be posting application forms guidelines on this website. We will want your current Kukkiwon Rank, your desired rank, and a letter detailing the reasons why you believe your promotion is justified. The applications will be reviewed by USAT and the Martial Arts Commissions for acceptability and forwarded to Kukkiwon for final review. Applicants who meet all necessary requirements to qualify for testing will receive notice of approval their application in advance of the test date.
(지원서는 USAT and the Martial Arts Commissions가 검사하게 되고 국기원에 보내 질 것이다..... )
"This is a remarkable and rare opportunity to make Taekwondo history," added Martial Arts Commission Chairman Grand Master JP Choi. (JP 최)"Every eligible Taekwondo Dan holder in the USA should embrace this moment with enthusiasm and apply for promotion without delay. The chance may never come again." (태권도 역사를 만들 주의를 끄는 그리고 좀 처럼 없는 기회이다. ... 다시 이런 기회가 오지 않을 것이다.)
Fees for testing will be charged in the following manner and are due at the time the application is received. An applicant will be charged for a maximum of three Dan rank tests regardless of the number of ranks involved in the test. For example, if an applicant is applying for the new Kukkiwon Rank Recognition Test or seeking a Skip Dan Test, he/she will be charged only for the three highest rank test fees. For example, a 3d Dan seeking 7th Dan would pay fees only for 5th, 6th, and 7th Dan. Similarly, an applicant seeking a Rank Recognition test for 7th Dan, will also only pay test fees for the three highest testing ranks (in this case, 5th, 6th, and 7th Dan-). If only one or two rank promotions are being sought, the applicant will be charged for those requested ranks. ( 월단하는데 얼마씩 돈을 내야 한다... )
The planned test is conditioned upon 70 approved physical test (4th-7th Dan and/ or those who are skipping three Dans) applications from Kukkiwon. It is important that all applicants submit their applications and other materials not later than January 10, 2009. USAT and the Martial Arts Commission will promptly review the applications and submit them to Kukkiwon. Kukkiwon will issue notice of approval in time for travel arrangements to be made. Should the test not go forward in Las Vegas in February, the back up plan is to hold it in July in conjunction with the Junior Olympics and Senior Nationals which will be held in Austin, Texas.
Another special testing opportunity for 8th and 9th Dan will be offered later in 2009 by the Kukkiwon if all applicants meet the Kukkiwon requirements. (또다른 한번의 특단 심사 (8단 & 9단)는 2009년 후반기에 국기원에 의해서 열릴 것이다. )
Please address all questions to USAT CEO David Askinas david.askinas@usa-taekwondo.us or Grandmaster Joon Pyo Choi, Co-Chairman of the USAT Martial Arts Commission jpchoi@moogong.com.

미국의 많은 사범들이 걱정을 많이 하고 있다고 합니다.
태권도는 한국에서 보다 미국에서 무술로써 많은 인정을 받고 있는게 현실인데, 그들은 경제적인 것뿐만 아니라 미국에서 쌓아 높은 태권도의 아름다운 규칙들이 한 순간에 무너지는 것을 걱정하고 있습니다.
미국의 태권도 수련생들이 태권도를 사랑하고 매우 높이 평가하고 있는데 실망감을 느끼는 것 같습니다.
왜냐하면 본인들은 자신들의 수련의 결과물이 단인데 어떻게 단을 단기간에 월단하는지 이해를 잘 못하고 있습니다. 그들은 자신이 실력이 부족하면 평생을 걸려서 1단을 따도 된다고 생각하는 이들도 있습니다. 이런 이멜을 받고 사실이냐고 물었습니다. 국기원에서 정말로 추진을 하는 것인지 궁금해 합니다.
어떤 목적을 두고 이런 일을 시행하는지 잘 모르겠습니다. 멀리 보는 눈이 필요합니다. 단기성의 순환이 아니라 태권도를 연구하고 발전시키면 세계의 많은 사람들이 태권도를 수련하게되고 사랑하고 한국의 태권도를 보러 국기원에 한번이라도 가보고 싶을 것입니다.
세계의 태권도가 된 이상 그만한 가치가 있는 자리에 태권도가 있으면 좋겠습니다.
