World Taekwondo Federation (WTF) President Choue Chung-won will release an English book titled ``Peace in Mind, Sports at Heart,'' in a ceremony Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. at the Crystal Ball Room on the third floor of the Jamsil Lotte Hotel in Seoul.

In the work, Choue outlines his thoughts on how to further develop taekwondo and the WTF.

The 223-page book contains his ideas on the globalization of taekwondo, the creation of a new taekwondo image, and a vision of sports and peace, as well as his reflections on life.

The publication also highlights the reason why the WTF headman launched the Taekwondo Peace Corps last summer and the ongoing WTF efforts for fair judging and refereeing.
