Korea is a divided nation in which there has been no formal peace treaty since the end of the Korean War in 1953. In the wake of a nuclear weapons stand-off between the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (North Korea) and the international community, particularly the United States and South Korea, Grandmaster Woo-Jin Jung and a team of Taekwondo martial artists sponsor a delegation of eighteen North Koreans on a five-city thirteen-day performance tour of the United States. October 04, 2007, marked the first time in history that North Koreans had stepped foot into America for a cultural exchange of this significance. TONG-IL is a feature documentary that takes us through Grandmaster Jung’s biography, an immigrant rags to riches tale, into North Korea, the most closed and isolated society on Earth, and on the 2007 Taekwon-Do Goodwill Tour that awed and entertained thousands across America.
