After Taegeuk Pal Jang, students usually test for Black Belt and then begin to study the form Koryo. Trivia: * Taegeuk Pal Jang and Taegeuk Yook Jang are the only Taegeuk forms that don't end in a kihap. For Pal Jang this especially makes sense, as a kihap at the end would throw off the symmetry of the final line. * Taegeuk Pal Jang is the only Taegeuk form where you start by transitioning forward all the way to the third line.
