When Taekwondo Strikes, also known as Sting of the Dragon Masters and Taekwondo Heroes, is a 1973 martial arts movie written and directed by Feng Huang.In Japanese-occupied Korea, Li Jundong (Jhoon Rhee) is the leader of a Korean resistance movement. He is living in the guise of a gardener working for the French priest Father Louis (Andre E. Morgan) and his niece Mary (Anne Winton). When follower Zhengzhi (Carter Wong) inadvertently blows Li's cover, Louis is taken prisoner by the villainous Bansan Karate School (known as the Yokoyama dojo in some versions of the film; its members include a character played by Sammo Hung). Li, Zhengzhi, and Mary evade capture and try to rescue Louis, with the help of Huang Li Chen (Angela Mao), a Chinese woman trained in hapkido. | |

When Taekwondo Strikes / int_38a1911b | comment |
Thug Dojo: The Bansan Karate School is a more extreme example than most - they're a front of the Japanese Secret Service, and they kidnap Korean women for use as comfort women. | |

It's All My Fault: Zhengzhi blames himself for Huang's mother's death, as his attempts at investigating the disappearance of Korean women drew the attention of the Bansan Karate School.

"Wanted!" Poster: The government prints one offering ¥500 (or $500 in some English versions), more than most people make in a year, for information on Li's resistance group. One follower gives in to greed and snitches. | |

Never Bring a Knife to a Fist Fight | |
When Taekwondo Strikes / int_e54f93d5 | comment |
Never Bring a Knife to a Fist Fight: When one of the villains draws a sword on Huang, she disarms him, then throws his sword away so it sticks in a tree. Then she backs him against the tree and uses his sword to kill him. Later, a room full of men with swords attacks her, and she effortlessly beats up most of them. | |
