Ing-Sik Whang is a Grandmaster of hapkido and a student of legendary hapkido Grandmaster Ji Han-jae (generally regarded as one of the two "fathers" of hapkido). For those who may be unaware, hapkido is a Korean martial art employing both grappling and striking techniques to disable an opponent.To film audiences, Ing-Sik Whang is best remembered as one of several fighters encountered by Bruce Lee as Lee fights his way up various levels of a pagoda in Game of Death (1978). Ing-Sik Whang has made over 25 appearances in feature films, and currently runs an hapkido academy in Canada.
