===Kim Jung-soo=== Kim Jung-soo (๊น์ ์) was born and raised in the [[Daegu|Taegu]] area, Korea, and started training Hapkido directly under Choi Yong-sool (์ต์ฉ์ ) in 1957. He was one of the earlier students of Hapkido, and one source puts him as the eight original student of Choi Yong-sool.<ref name="Hapkido Family Three">{{cite web |url=http://www.sinmoohapkido.be/Hapkido%20Family%20Tree.htm |title=Hapkido Family Tree |publisher=Koti.mbnet.fi |access-date=2015-10-28 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150924102023/http://www.sinmoohapkido.be/Hapkido%20Family%20Tree.htm |archive-date=2015-09-24 }}</ref> Kim Jung-soo trained sporadically under Choi Yong-sool (์ต์ฉ์ ) along with his primary teachers and influencers Kim Moo-hong (๊น๋ฌดํ) and Won Kwang-wha (์๊ดํ) from 1957 until 1986. In 1961, Kim Moo-hong (๊น๋ฌดํ) moved to Seoul to open a dojang, and Kim Jung-soo (๊น์ ์) and Won Kwang-wha (์๊ดํ) went with him and became his dojang's primary instructors. Together, they developed the Shin Moo Kwan (์ ๋ฌด๊ด) branch of Hapkido. In 1963 Kim Jung-soo (๊น์ ์) decided to go his own way and opened his own dojang in [[Daegu|Taegu]] under the banner of Yun Bee Kwan (์ค๋น๊ด). Later, his students began opening branch schools throughout the greater [[Daegu|Taegu]] aerea, under various names, but still considered to be part of the Yun Bee Kwan (์ค๋น๊ด) family. These schools are known to hold tightly to the original teachings of Choi, Yong-sool (๊น์ ์), while also including most of the refinements done by Kim Moo-hong (๊น๋ฌดํ) in terms of kicking methods. Kim Jung-soo (๊น์ ์) is mostly known for being the founder and president of the Korea-based World Hapkido General Federation, also known as World Hapkido Federation, collecting most of the schools under the Yun Bee Kwan (์ค๋น๊ด) linage in one federation.<ref name="World Hapkido General Federation.">{{cite web|url=http://www.hapkimudo.co.kr/index1.asp|title=์ฌ๋จ๋ฒ์ธ ์ธ๊ณํฉ๊ธฐ๋์ด์ฐ๋งน|publisher=Hapkimudo.co.kr|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150404002331/http://www.hapkimudo.co.kr/index1.asp|archive-date=April 4, 2015|url-status=dead|access-date=2015-10-28}}</ref> This organization has since expanded worldwide.
