(english.cnhubei.com) Taekwondo, the sport originated from Korea, has become a hot sport in central China’s Hubei Provicne. Kim Chel-Hee is a Korean man who owns three taekwondo chain gyms in Wuhan, the provincial capital.

Kim came to Wuhan in 1997 and opened the first taekwondo gym in the city in 1999 which attracted over hundreds of local people. “Around the year 2001, I never took rest as I am the coach, gym-owner as well as the desk clerk. I feel very tired and decide to set up a company,” Kim said.

Some of his former students become the coach and his employees. “I was not used to the change of the relationship at the very beginning,” Kim told reporters.

Kim now studies MBA in Wuhan University which he thought he benefited a lot.

“I decided to take the permanent residence in Wuhan. I feel extremely happy here” Kim said. A baby was recently brought to the family.
