I don't think I've ever been in a TKD school where the sparring was light. In most cases whether there was head punching, leg kicking and clinching or not, one thing that was a constant was the level of contact. Most the the TKD guys that I've run into were hard hitting fighters. People in He Il Cho's group are hard fighters as are people who came up under Ernie Reyes.

People like that definitely use contact when they spar and it shows when they hit you. And they know how to fight quite effectively regardless of whatever "fag" rules you're talking about.
