Tae Kwon Do (태권도, 跆拳道, Taegwondo) is a South Korean martial art, characterized by its emphasis on head-height kicks, jumping and spinning kicks, and fast kicking techniques.
It's a fighting style used by Sonya Blade in Deadly Alliance and Armageddon, by Mokap in Deadly Alliance, Sareena in Tournament Edition and by Nightwolf in Deception.
Several kwan (styles) arose in Korea and were later combined into Tae Kwon Do. In many respects, Tae Kwon Do is the South Korean equivalent of Karate, with more emphasis placed on kicking.
