Abstract
The purpose of this study is to look at the decisions on yuko-datotsu being made through the system of "Claim for Judgment Using VTR" that the Korea Business Kumdo Federation (KBKF) has introduced. This thesis is organized as follows:
·Details leading up to the introduction of "Claim for Judgment Using VTR".
·Clarification of its regulations and subsidiary.
·Analysis of the assessment of decisions made using a video tape recorder (VTR).
·The relation between decisions made using the VTR and the requirements of yuko-datotsu.
The results obtained were as follow:
1.Before the introduction of the "Claim for Judgment Using VTR," systems using 5 referees and 4 referees were investigated.
2.The system of "Claim for Judgment Using VTR" was accepted by all concerned.
3.In case kantoku has a doubt about the yuko-datotsu, kantoku may file igi with shinpan-shunin in this system.
4.Judges check the datotsu-bui of the opponent’s kendo-gu or datotsubu with shinai using the VTR. This method bears some parallels to the instant replay system that many professional sports have adopted.
5.But if they move to checking not only datotsubu or datotsu-bui, but also checking the yuko-datotsu, the requirement of yuko-datotsu will be changed by the introduction of this system.
