What is the primitive stage of achievement described as White Belt?

• A. Black Belt
• B. White Belt
• C. Red Circle
• D. Bottom Belt

Answer: (B)

The starting point in Tang Soo Do belt rankings is the White Belt. It represents a clean slate and the beginner’s stage, where a student is just starting to learn the fundamentals—stances, blocks, basic kicks, and simple forms. Because the question asks for the primitive stage described as White Belt, this is the best fit: it signals the initial phase of training, before any substantial skill has been demonstrated.

The other terms don’t fit as the beginner level: a Black Belt signifies advanced proficiency beyond the initial stage, while Red Circle and Bottom Belt aren’t standard belt designations in this system.
