The World Taekwondo Federation and the International Taekwondo Federation held working-level talks in Beijing, China, on Nov. 24-25, 2006, for the formation of a coordination committee to discuss integration matters of the two bodies. At the Beijing talks, the two sides exchanged opinions to produce a final agreement on the establishment of the proposed coordination committee.

Mr. Manseek Choe, deputy secretary general of the WTF and Mr. Seok-jae Kang, director of the WTF’s PR Division, represented the WTF, while Mr. Yong-son Ri, deputy secretary general of the ITF, led the ITF contingent. For the formation of the coordination committee, delegates of the two taekwondo organizations met in Beijing on four occasions.

The presidents of the WTF and the ITF are expected to sign a mutual agreement on the establishment of the Coordination Committee for Taekwondo Integration in early December during the 15th Asian Games in Doha, Qatar. North Korean Ung Chang, member of the International Olympic Committee, leads the ITF.

On Sept. 20, 2006, the two presidents and Dr. Jacques Rogge, president of the IOC, met at the headquarters of the IOC in Lausanne, Switzerland, where the IOC president coordinated the ongoing talks between the two taekwondo organizations. The IOC president proposed that an agreement on the integration of technical rules be reached before any decision can be taken on administrative integration.

此次會談最主要目的為尋求一個最快捷的方法和最終的方向，藉以結束多年來跆拳道界ITF 與WTF 兩個國際團體分立的局面。

這不只是跆拳道之父崔泓熙將軍的夢想，並且是身處於世界各地愛好跆拳道的兄弟姊妹們的願望，雙方代表在會談中積極地作出了最大的努力，希望能盡快達成跆拳道愛好者所願。
最後，雙方協定成立「跆拳道合併發展委員會」(暫譯名稱) 一起磋商有關雙方團體在行政架構和技術配套上整合的問題。

雙方代表草擬了一份相互協定，並將於本年十二月上旬在卡達多哈舉行的第十五屆亞運會中交由ITF 及WTF 兩位總裁簽訂。

此次會談中，ITF 代表團由該團體行政主任李 容宣 先生 (Mr. RI Yong Son) 率領，WTF 代表團則由其團體副總幹事崔萬植 先生 (Mr. CHOE Man Seek)帶領。
