About Dr. Nathan Jo
Dr Nathan Jo has been dedicated to reviving the art of Jedok Geom since 2017, when he was tired of seeing Korean sword arts with questionable historic connections and wanted to train in a truly historic Korean sword form. He runs the YouTube channel Just a Bug, and teaches the Jedok Geom form to students in Sydney, Australia, focusing on full-contact sparring to simulate real combat. During his study of Jedok Geom, he has spent time researching iaido, gumdo, kummooyeh and HEMA to further understand Asian swordsmanship and to ensure his interpretation of Jedok Geom is effective and practical.
