Subject: Phillip Rhee, Simon Rhee, and Jhoon Rhee
Content: 2008/5/12th Greetings, I was wondering how active the Rhee family is currently, in the world of martial arts, specifically the brothers Phillip & Simon Rhee, from the 'Best of the Best' movies so hugely popular in the late 80s through the mid 90s ? On a related tangent, is Jhoon Rhee their father ? ... given his age in relation to the younger brother Phillip and older brother Simon. I recall in text*, it was Jhoon Rhee who introduced a certain Bruce Lee to the kicking arsenal of Taekwondo back when he was tweaking his Jeet Kune Do. (*in text, as I was too young to be aware of this event back when it was ''happening''). On yet another related tangent, how successful is Grandmaster Hee Il Cho's association in the Taekwondo world ? Specifically his AIMAA - Action International Martial Arts association. I think www.aimaa.com is his official headquarter's site. Fans of the aforementioned movies will remember Hee Il Cho as the 'bad guy' in the Best of the Best movie(s). 'Bad Guy' until the end as at the end, if I remember correctly, he turns out to be a valiant, honorable 'Good Guy' during the final fight scene. Hope to get some replies:) regards, Eric B.
