Tang Soo Do literally means "The Way of The Chinese Hand" and has roots in various styles of martial arts including those found in Japanese, Chinese, and Korean Martial Arts. These roots started in Korean Tae Kyon, Chinese Shaolin, and Japanese Shotokan.
The origin of Tang Soo Do can not be definitively traced to any single person. Lee Won Kuk is credited as being one of the first instructors of Tang Soo Do in Korea. The most famous and well known Tang Soo Do practitioner is Master Chuck Norris, among others are: Pat E. Johnson (actor and director of "The Karate Kid" and "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles").

A martial art created by Hwang Kee of Korea. Its purpose is unification of the body, mind, and spirit. Its practitioners focus not on besting others, but on bettering themselves. Formerly known as "Tang Soo Do," Soo Bahk Do and traditional martial arts like it should be considered artforms and practices; never sport.
If you want a quality martial art with goals of honoring tradition and bettering the self... you should check out Soo Bahk Do.

"DO" means way of life or art. Thus "TANG SOO DO" means the Korean classical martial art which was influenced by the Tang method of martial art.
HISTORY OF TANG SOO DO
The exact origin of Tang Soo Do (as well as any of the martial arts in general) is obscure, though there are a number of historical theories. However, the most credible and the traditional view is that martial arts originated not in any one country, but in almost all parts of the world as the were needed by primitive people. The ancient ancestral art of Korean Tang Soo Do can be traced back to the period if the three kingdoms. They are as follows;
Koguryo Founded in 37BC in Northern Korea
Silla Founded in 57BC in the S.East peninsula
Paekche Founded in 18BC in the S.West of the peninsula
After a long series of wars, the Silla Dynasty united the three kingdoms in 668 AD. Among the three kingdoms, the Silla Dynasty was the most famous for it's development of martial arts. A corps formed by young aristocrats who were called the "Hwa Hrang Do" was the major group who developed the art. Over the years, Tang Soo Do became very popular among the military and public societies. It had many names...Soo Bahk Do, Kwon Bop, Tae Kyun, etc. The first complete martial arts book written in 1790 AD, contained illustrations and substantiated the theory that "Soo Bahk Ki", the formal name for Tang Soo Do, had quickly developed into a sophisticated art of combat techniques.
MODERN HISTORY OF TANG SOO DO
The subsequent occupation of Korea by the Japanese military regime took place from 1909 to 1945. During this period, practicing and teaching martial arts was forbidden. After World War II, in 1945, this restriction was lifted and several martial arts schools were established.

These founders started their own organizations respectively, and Grand Master Hwang Kee organized the Korean Soo Bahk Do Association. Besides the Soo Bahk Do association's existence in Korea, there were various other martial arts, called Kong Sii or Tae Soo. In 1965, all the various systems were unified into one organization called the "Korean Tae Kwon Do Association, and the arts were called Tae Kwon Do uniformly. As a Korean national sport, Tae Kwon Do initiated a new era, and instructors were dispatched throughout the world and the international tournaments were held. It was during those days that Tang Soo Do and Tae Kwan Do divided. Tang Soo Do strives to remain a fully traditional art.
Tang Soo Do is the best Korean martial art.
Tae Kwan Do is more of a sport.
