Which term corresponds to Beginner? (Alternate wording)

• A. Cho Bo Ja
• B. Yu Gup Ja
• C. Ko Dan Ja
• D. Yu Dan Ja

Answer: (A)

In Tang Soo Do terminology, the term for someone just starting out is Cho Bo Ja. Cho Bo Ja literally translates to "beginner person," with Cho Bo meaning beginner and Ja meaning person. This label is used for students at the starting level before moving on to colored belts (Gup) and then black belt ranks (Dan). The other terms denote higher ranks—Ko Dan Ja is second-degree black belt, Yu Dan Ja is third-degree black belt, and Yu Gup Ja refers to a higher colored-belt rank. So the beginner is Cho Bo Ja.
