Hanmookwan, established in 1954 by Kyo Yoon Lee, is one of the kwans, or schools, that combined with others to establish the Korean Taekwondo Association, followed by the establishment of the World Taekwondo Federation.

Today, under the leadership of In Hui Won, the journey continues as the World Taekwondo Hanmookwan Federation grows in stewardship to bring support to practitioners around the world.
