Some Thoughts about Hyongs

  • Having the techniques right and performing the Hyong with enough strength is more important than doing it quickly. It’s not a race.
  • There are different levels of fluidity. Overall, Hyong should be fluid to some degree, but it can be divided into segments, and each segment needs to be fluid in itself.
  • Repetition is crucial. You need to do the Hyongs without thinking about the next step but focus on the technical details instead. It is an endless cycle of automation and manual improvement. Improve in specific parts or techniques, automate the improvements, and then improve further.

It seems it is correctly spelled ‘Hyeong’, but ‘Hyong’ is very common.
