THERE'S A WISE SAYING THAT GOES LIKE THIS: Do not be very upright in your dealings for you would see by going to the forest that straight trees are cut down while crooked ones are left standing.
"Remember, you need to concentrate! Focus! Now get out there, and show them how Scorpions are." Sensei Jung snapped, Kang Eun-taek gulped. "You fail again and you'll regret it when the tournament is over."
The students around them became silent. Eun-taek was terrified. His body ached from the tips of his hair to the heels of his feet.
The Tang Soo Do Championships were brutal. This wasn't a rehearsed demonstration or sporting competition. This was real, and it felt like a matter of life and death.
The man he was facing was a big guy; six foot one and weight in at two hundred and fifteen pounds of almost pure muscle and unfortunately he also had the innate fighting ability that one day would make him the 1966 karate heavyweight champion of South Korea.

A loud cheer filled the arena as Eun-taek nodded to his Sensei and took his position on the tatami mat.
Kim Jimin watched from the stands, and like the rest of the onlookers, was excited and fearful all at once.
