Yoo-Sin is named after General Kim Yoo-Sin, a commanding General during the Silla Dynasty. The 68 movements refer to the last two figures of 668 A.D. the year Korea was unified. The ready posture signifies a sword drawn to the right rather than the left side, symbolizing Yoo-Sin's mistake of following the King's orders to fight foreign force against his own nation. He was instrumental in uniting the three kingdoms of Korea.
