A Kyu test was held on April 21st in Seoul, Korea organized by Branch Chief Sensei Kim Do Geon. 41 members including 19 juniors participated in the 3 hour test which started with Kihon and ended with a written test. Some parents watched their children's test for the first time said "Kyokushin promotion test is different from other martial arts in Korea". "It requires more time to complete but has deeper meanings for the children because it is stricter and also more detail oriented". "Children who passed the test can gain more confidence after."
Korean Branch Chief, Kim Do Geon said that everyone did well in this test and he would like to see further development into the future.
