Taekwondo is Korea's most internationally recognized martial art and an Olympic sport since 2000, dominating global competition with its signature high kicks and jumping spinning kicks. It has produced over sixty Olympic medals for Korea, more than any other Korean martial art on this list, and the Kukkiwon in Seoul registers over eight million black belts worldwide. This impressive reach and medal count easily outperform #2 Ssireum in international recognition and competitive success.
