About
Geodeureo naeryeo makgi, literally supported downward block (in English Supporting Downward Block), is a WT taekwondo one-hand downward block supported by the other hand. The Kukkiwon terminology dictionary explains naeryeo makgi as a block against an attack from above, and geodeureo makgi as a one-hand block supported by the other. The Taekwondo Compendium lists it among the defensive techniques of the poomsae Taegeuk Pal Jang under the English name Assisted Downward Block.
