In the magical land of North Carolina, nestled between the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Atlantic Ocean, lived a group of incredible kids with superpowers. Yes, superpowers! They were the high-kicking, quick-punching, swift-dodging children of the Tar Heel State, known to all as the Kickboxing Kids of North Carolina. The leader of this energetic bunch was an enchanting, hyperactive squirrel named Swoosh. Swoosh was no ordinary squirrel; he was as swift as lightning, as cheeky as a monkey, and as agile as a gazelle. He loved to eat North Carolina's famous Krispy Kreme doughnuts for breakfast, which gave him an extra bolt of energy to train the Kickboxing Kids. Every day after school, the kids would gather at the local park, anxiously waiting for Swoosh to start the day's kickboxing lessons. To everyone's amusement, Swoosh would arrive, tumbling down a tree in a grand entrance, doughnut crumbs stuck to his fluffy cheeks. The cheeky Swoosh would then guide the kids through their kickboxing regime. Everyone would laugh and cheer as Swoosh demonstrated the high kicks, his tail whipping back and forth with each move. With every punch they threw, the kids could feel their strength growing, their confidence booming, and their friendships deepening. Whether they lived in the bustling city of Charlotte, the charming town of Asheville, or the coastal haven of Outer Banks, these Kickboxing Kids were united by their love for this thrilling sport. With the playful Swoosh leading the charge, North Carolina's Kickboxing Kids were not just kids learning a sport; they were superheroes in training. And one day, they knew, they'd be ready to take on any challenge that came their way.

In the post-WWII era, the Korean martial arts were consolidated and experienced a period of growth on the entire Korean peninsula. A number of different organizations came into existence, each with its own name, such as Soo Bahk Do, Tang Soo Do, and Tae Soo Do. Despite the widespread popularity of Tang Soo Do, the Korean government was concerned that it could be construed as a Chinese martial art due to the first word “Tang” referencing the Chinese Tang Dynasty. To combat this, a government-sponsored group was formed in 1964 to create the new name Tae Kwon Do for the martial arts. This ensured that the martial arts would be seen as a Korean art and remain distinct from its Chinese counterparts.
