The primary purpose of this account is to edit and improve the article on Oom Yung Doe. I would like to edit the article with my normal account; however, I am wary of doing this work using an account that has personal, identifiable information.

Biography and achievement of Kim

[edit]

Kim was born in South Korea.

Kim was arrested on April 11, 1995 for conspiracy to defraud the U.S. Internal Revenue Service out of approximately two million dollars.[1] Kim was incarcerated in a federal prison until his release on April 13, 2001.[2]


Kim claims to have competed in and won the All Asia Championship in 1956 sponsored by Wang Po in the Cho Leung area of Pusan.[3] The Rick Ross Institute, has published statements asserting that the All Asia Championship never existed for Kim to participate in or win.[4]

Another achievement claimed by Kim is a technique he refers to as "Kyong Gong Sul Bope" (경공술법 or flying side kick) which he claims to have demonstrated by jumping from the equivalent of an 11-story building. While in the U.S. in 1972, Kim claims to have again performed the Kyong Gong Sul Bope movement by jumping from the equivalent of an 8-story building and landing without injury on a sloped surface.[5]

Pictures depicting Kyong Gong Sul Bope and other achievements may be found on the Oom Yung Doe web site.[6] (probably need to delete) Smith claims to have found evidence that at least some of these photographs have been staged or edited to appear to be extraordinary.[7] (probably need to delete) In an article published in the Minneapolis City Pages, Jennifer Vogel, accused Kim of using these outlandish claims of extraordinary achievement to promote legends of his abilities to create a cult of personality.[8]

Death of Robert Ludden

[edit]

Thirty-five year old Robert Ludden of Des Plaines, IL was reported missing in August 1991. Most of Ludden's partially decomposed body was discovered in the Cook County Forest Preserves in September 1991. Police began to investigate the Oom Yung Doe schools because Ludden was a former assistant instructor of the Oom Yung Doe schools who had left the organization several years earlier and because there had been communications between Ludden and Oom Yung Doe instructors just prior to his disappearance. However, at the time of his death his wife stated "...he ended his affiliation with the school more than seven years ago." Police also believed that he may have been involved in the use and sale cocaine at the time of his disappearance.[14][15][16][17][18][19][20][13]

Media attenion

[edit]

More Magazine[21] and The Oprah Winfrey Show[22] have featured an Oom Yung Doe practitioner in her 60s on stories about what women in their midlife are doing to maintain their health and gain greater meaning out of life.
