I just moved to southwestern Daejeon and I'm looking for somewhere to try a martial art. I'd prefer hapkido, but taekwondo or any of the Korean variations of kendo would be fine as well.
I speak very little Korean, so I'd prefer a place that has experience dealing with foreigners, so if you can recommend any places, please do.
I'm looking to go either on the weekends, or in the mornings.

Thanks

My officemate studies hapkido, so I'll ask him tomorrow where he goes. I know the instructor does not speak English, though (my officemate does not speak Korean).

There is a haedong kumdo (kendo with actual steel swords) dojo near the Pizza Hut in Yongjeon-dong, down the street from Junja-land (the Junja-land near HomePlus). They don't speak English there, either, I'm afraid, but very patient nonetheless.
