This page looks at Taekwondo numbers (or how to count in Korean). In Taekwondo, students will have to count in Korean (i.e. during stretching or drills). Therefore, we have listed Taekwondo numbers from 1-100. This page helps students learn how to properly pronounce these Taekwondo numbers. FYI – Korean numbers are often used in stretching sessions, Taekwondo forms, ITF Taekwondo patterns and Palgwe forms.
