Hi there.
I am looking for some korean fighting phrases.
I’m looking for the writing of something like:
Never Back Down or
Fight to the bitter end (I believe there is a saying for this, somthing like shum-po or something like that) or
Indomitable Spirit (I do Taekwon-do)
Anything that means that you won’t give up.
Please.
Rgds.
Stian.
