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.
