GM Park seminar, the second coming

Last night was another poomsae seminar with Grandmaster Park.  It's apparently the last time he's likely to come to Australia again, so i wanted this time to ask at least a couple of the questions about applications that i haven't been able to find answers on.

I considered asking about the turning kun dol jjogi move in Keumgang, but decided that some moves in Sipjin were more baffling for me, so i saved questions until then in case i didn't get to ask more.  As last time, nobody else was asking any questions and we just went through how the patterns were done, with the odd bit of application here and there to show why an arm should be straight or whatever.  When we got up to Sipjin, i swallowed my nerves and asked if there was any application for the "lifting two buckets" move, but Mr Park just showed how to do the move again.  When we stopped for a water break after that, i asked again, mentioning the word 'hosinsul' in case he misunderstood what i was asking, but he just said how to perform the move again and then walked off, so i guess that meant no.

It was kind of awkward, and i'm not sure he particularly appreciated me asking, but given it's the last chance i'm likely to get to ask the guy who wrote the book, so to speak, it was worth risking an etiquette faux-pas for the possibility of finding something out.

Of what was discussed, there were a few notable points i collected on various patterns.  I'm not sure if they will match with what's specified for competition purposes, but for practical purposes they may be important.

( technical stuffs )

All up, it seemed a useful night, even if i left with old questions still unanswered.  At least this time i tried to ask, and don't have to kick myself over wasting an opportunity like last time.
