CHOONG-MOO
was the name given to the great Admiral Yi Soon-Sin of the Lee Dynasty. He was
reputed to have invented the first armoured battleship (Kobukson) in 1592, which
is said to be the precursor of the present day submarine. The reason why this
pattern ends with a left hand attack is to symbolize his regrettable death,
having no chance to show his unrestrained potentiality checked by the forced
reservation of his loyalty to the king.
