The Dubeon Jileugi (두 번 지르기), also called Momtong Dubeon Jileugi, is a double punch delivered to the body: we strike with the front of the closed fist (ap jumeok), the first two phalanges (index and middle fingers), then we immediately follow up with a second direct blow with the other fist on the same target. The trajectory is straight forward, at the middle level (momtong, plexus or chest), in the long forward position (ap kubi) or the rider (juchum seogi). It is encountered in several poomsae (Taegeuk 3, 4 and 8), in combat (gyeorugi) and in self-defense (hosinsul).
