Joon-Gun

Joon-Gun: is named after the patriot Ahn Joong-Gun who assassinated Hirobumi Ito, the first Japanese Governor-General of Korea, known as the man who played the leading part in the Korea-Japan merger. There are 32 movements of this pattern to represent Mr. Ahn's age when he was executed at Liu-Shung prison (1910). 32 movements

Choong-Moo

Admiral Yi had no chance to show his unrestrained potentiality, as it was checked by the forced reservation of his loyalty to thing king. 30 movements
