Best Answer

Taekwondo has become extremely popular in several places around the world. Perhaps the largest popularity is among the people of its birth country. Since Koreans identify the Martial Art as part of their national cultural identity, and historical evolution which helped them survive many feudal eras, Taekwondo has been adopted as their national Martial Art as well as national sport.

However, it is easy for a nation to take for granted something that is readily available, and already a part of their culture. Therefore, students in many foreign countries have looked upon all Martial Art training as something special, and even mystical. Learning segments of a new language, culture, philosophy, and history of fighting skills has made Taekwondo equally popular outside of Korea.

Since the early 1960's, Taekwondo has flourished in the United States, and become one of the most common forms of self defense training, replacing many the Judo, Karate, and Kung Fu schools of past decades.

Canada has a large Taekwondo following as well as the United Kingdom. Taekwondo is also very popular in Australia. It is difficult to say where it is "most popular" since you can find very dedicated, loyal, and skillful practitioners all around the world. Certainly Korea, the US, Canada, and the UK are all very close in their popularity and practice of Taekwondo.
