Korean government gave him Taekwondo uniform for present, because President Obama learned Taekwondo while he was senator
Korea has various kinds of traditional martial arts and Taekwondo is one of them
When you see the Taekwondo during Olympic game, it looks players only use their legs but they use hands too :-)
Taekkyon, other kind of Korean martial arts, is a little bit different with Taekwondo. It is slower and softer. When you see it first time, you might think people are dancing. But, can you see that? The softness contains strength.

I linked the Taekkyon movie. The feature of Taekkon is moving body with making a concentration of spirit. Its Jun-bi action which means ready really looks like dancing but Taekkon has ascendancy over the opponent by moving legs
The similar point of the Taekkyon and Kaekwondo is using legs a lot :-)
