Moon-Moo
(Honors the thirteenth king of the Silla Dynasty -661 A.D.)

 

 

Movements - 61
Ready Posture - PARALLEL READY STANCE

END: Bring the right foot back to a ready posture.

Moon-Moo honours the 30th King of the Silla Dynasty. His body was buried near Dae Wang Am (Great King's Rock). According to his will, the body was placed in the sea "where my soul shall forever defend my land against the Japanese." It is said that the Sok Gul Am (Stone cave) was built to guard his tomb. The Sok Gul Am is a fine example of the culture of the Silla Dynasty. The 61 movements in this pattern symbolize the last two figures of 661 A.D. when Moon Moo came to the throne.
