There is a reason for this. GM Ji has told me that he was his teacher. Also, GM Han's 9th Dan was given to him by GM Ji. I understand the many Korean masters consider their teacher to be the one that contributed most to their learning. Not to be disrespectful to anyone, but the list of Hapkido masters and grand masters who learned from GM Ji, and later claim lineage to GM Choi is long and distinguish.

Of course everyone who touches hapkido will change it and it is indeed not the same hapkido as it once was. That is the nature of development. However, claiming an art is a different matter and is just wrong and also very sad.

Jose' There appears to be many differences. I just pulled out Gen. Choi's encyclopedia and noted a great many technique names that I am unfamilar with (I'm WTF).
