The koreans have their version of the pinan / heian katas... They are the "Pyong an". Anyone has heard about them??? I guess is mostly used by Tang Soo Do practitioners, but I train them in my Tae Kwon Do school since the main director of my dojang is a poomsae hardcore fan, and he have train a lot of different Korean martial arts.

So… let me see, as far a I know the WTF uses the Taeguk I – VIII, Koryo, Kumgang, Taeback, Pyongwon, Shipjin, Jitae, Chunkwon, Hansoo and Ilyeo.

ITF uses the 24 Tul.

And some other old or not affiliated schools (probably with roots in the Tang Soo Do) practices the Kuk Mu, Pyong An, Chul Gi, Pal Sek, and Kee Cho.

And of course Palgwe I – VIII. The base of Taeguk and Tul, in my opinion.
