In 1968, Korean General Hong Hi Choi (the man responsible for originally standardizing Taekwondo in 1955) met with then Master Haeng Ung Lee (now Eternal Grand Master) who at the time was teaching Taekwondo-Japanese mixed martial arts to his organization of followers. General Choi speedily taught Eternal Grand Master Lee the 1st 16 Cheon-jee forms of Taekwondo in only 4 days and three nights (this system of forms was the 1st set of forms developed under the new Taekwondo of Korea)
