This research, to find the cultural identity of taekwondo, presents the historical origin of taekwondo in lights of Choi-centric theory, kwan-centric theory, karate inflow theory, and successive traditional martial arts theory. Then it investigates taekwondo's inner identity as a Korean traditional martial art according to presence, popularity, and independence, three factors of identity suggested by Tak, S. S.(2000).As a result, it reached these conclusions: First, taekwondo was formed after going through fusion of Hong Hi Choi, karate income in period of cultural severance during Japanese occupation, the first kwan leaders and Korean traditional martial arts, process of disorder and cultural reproduction. Second, taekwondo has essentially inherited and developed Korean barehanded martial arts' movements that lay stress on foot skills, and this distinguishes it from hand-skill-based Japan's karate and China's Wushu Furthermore, trunk/groin protectors and headgears are blended remarkably with taeguk patterns and traditional Colors of Five Directions. All terms rendered into pure Korean words shows the essence of Korean localization. It is therefore concluded that Koreans should, along with trying to overcome exclusive nationalism as a country of origin, build a new paradigm of establishing an identity as a global martial art sport.
