7-8. Heo-Sil
Kang-gi and Yu-gi, dependently upon their existence and non-exisitence of hardness
and softness, can be the change of <Heo-Sil>.
“What are <Heo> and <Sil>?
What has its appearance that has nothing intended in real is called <Heo>,
while, on the contrary, what is filled with intention to do something regardless
its appearance is called <Sil>.” “As
you know what your motion should be like and you know what points you should
attack and what points you should not, then, riding the flow of <Heo>
and <Sil>, you can succeed in your offense at the opponent.”(Ch. 29)
For an example, consider the case the opponent kicks you. Its defending technique
is to concentrate your strength on the soft part behind his Kang-gi. On the
other hand, if you avoid it stepping slightly aside, it is a Yu-gi as you follow
his approaching toward you. This technique is to lead his offense to vainness
with your <Heo> to his <Sil>. On the other, if your opponent respond
to your <Sil> this way, you can also respond to his <Heo> with your
<Heo>, making your kicking to light stepping, that is, to a faint kick,
so that you can give him a strong attack with the next swift kick helped by
the tide from your serial stepping. This is possible because “<Heo>
contains <Sil> while <Sil> contains <Heo>.”(Ch.29)
On the other hand, the technique of counter-kick of Taekwondo is to respond
to the opponent's kick with your <Heo> thrusting his <Heo> that
supports its <Sil> with your <Sil>. How can you do this? “Seek
some empty points in the opponent's motion. Then, go into it.”(Ch.38)
All of these say, “you can have
<Heo> as <Sil> and <Sil> as <Heo>, and it is so changeful
that each of both follows including the other, which makes the flow of <Heo-Sil>.”(Ch.29)
