Decoration

The dojang walls can be decorated with all kinds of things ranging from the national and federation flag to pictures and calligraphy and boards with the names of techniques practiced in the dojang on it. In general Korean dojangs are usually heavily decorated which might give some visitors a bit of a messy impression.

In dojangs where arts are practiced which require a lot of falling, there will usually be a mat on the floor. In older days the floor could also be covered with the sacks rice was stored in, but in modern days there is a variety of mats available.
