This poomsae is for the 2nd dan. It is about diamonds, or unbreakable hardness. George S. Patton, Jr. once said, “Pressure makes diamonds.”. I wanted this piece to be about the hope, courage and tenacity of the Korean people who have been through so many hardships. The music has many sharp edges, with stabbing chord gestures over a rhythmic percussion pattern. 1 minute, 8 seconds.
