PS. I just received my 10th Dan from the South-Korean MMA fed of the Hapkido; they told me so in June last year when I was invited by the Korean Veterans Federation of the Korean war of 1950 - 1953.

So now your Kaicho has this honor from Japan 1994 and Korea 2010.

A big congratulation’s to our IBK Kaicho.  We are proud to have such a proven warrior as our founder and leader. We wish Kaicho long life and good health.
