Pyongwon 평원 [pyeong-won] – Plain
The word Pyongwon means plain. A fertile plain gives us the food and shelter; it is also a place where human life has existed moving from life to death. Also a great open plain stretching out endlessly gives us the feeling of majesty that is different from that of the mountain or the sea. Poomsae Pyongwon therefore should represent the abundance and vastness of the plain, the actions showing majesty and everlasting spirit.
