In South Korea, Taekwondo is more than a martial art, it’s a window into national identity. Join Professor Hannah Fry as she steps onto the mat and discovers the five tenets that power this iconic sport: courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control, and indomitable spirit. Guided by a Taekwondo master, Hannah learns how these values shape every discipline, every bow, and every bold kick. In the ring and beyond, these lessons reveal the heart of Korean culture, where respect, courage, and resilience are always in motion. Watch The Infinite Explorer with Hannah Fry, on Mondays at 8pm, on National Geographic UK
