Lee Dae Hoon’s crash course for the boys showed he was an excellent Taekwondo instructor.

Korean Englishman YouTuber Josh Daryl Carrott and his British high schoolers have taken a trip to Korea and visited the World Taekwondo Headquarters to meet Taekwondo Olympic medalist Lee Dae Hoon.

Lee Dae Hoon was a silver medal winner at the 2012 London Olympics and a bronze medal winner at the 2016 Rio Olympics. He was also a three-time gold medalist at the Asian Games. The boys were surprised that the Olympian would give them a crash course in Taekwondo.

Taekwondo is a Korean form of martial arts characterized by punching and kicking, emphasizing head-height kicks, spinning jump kicks, and fast kicking techniques. The British boys now get a rare opportunity to learn the sport from an Olympic champion.
