Wednesday Wisdom 🥋
Legacy isn’t built in a single moment—it is built through years of leadership, example, and the people you inspire along the way.

In 1993, GM Sung C. Kim won at the National Collegiate Taekwondo Association Championships. Thirty years later, in 2023, he was recognized for his leadership and contributions as the Vice President of the NCTA.

In 2026, Ms. Sabrina Kim earned a Gold Medal at the NCTA National Championships and was honored as Freshman Athlete of the Year.

Championships are memorable, but legacy is measured by something greater than medals. It’s found in the values passed on, the standards upheld, and the next generation inspired to achieve even more.

Success wins titles. Legacy creates future champions.

This prestigious recognition reflects Grandmaster Kim’s decades of commitment to developing students, supporting the global Taekwondo community, and promoting the values of courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control, and indomitable spirit.
