The South Korean Special Forces already had some advanced martial arts training programs with other names. All these programs had strengths and weaknesses. The job of the six Masters was to improve and combine the best techniques and training from any martial arts style into one complete system for the Tu Kong unit. This meant the program was to focus on killing and injury rather than points, knockouts and submission as most martial arts do. Most of what is now taught in Tukong Moosul programs in America cannot be used in tournaments.
Tournaments are sports that try to avoid injury to the players.
Combat is real fighting that tries to injure or kill the opponents. Tukong was designed for combat. Tukong techniques can be lowered to sport levels or remain as lethal or injurious as needed. These commanders were so impressed that they ordered all South Korean soldiers to be trained in some part of this program. He was well trained in Shaolin Style martial arts that he brought to the military when he contributed to the Tukong Unit's training program.
