In Korea, many people start Taekwondo from childhood regardless of gender. Since this certificate is often needed in society, I have included detailed information today for those who are looking for ways to check their Kukkiwon certificate.
In the case of Taekwondo Danz, it can be used when getting a job as a police officer, firefighter, or in various occupations. Since the ‘Poom’ earned before the age of 15 is automatically converted to a ‘Dan’ after that, it would be good to know in advance.
Then, in the following article, I will explain in detail how to check your Kukkiwon certificate, reissue it, print it, etc., so please refer to it!
How to check your Kukkiwon certificate
As I mentioned earlier, if you have a history of obtaining a Poomdan certificate through an examination at the Kukkiwon, you can check the information immediately.
Then, let’s find out how to check your current Poomdan, Poomdan number, and final promotion date.
