I found a bit about my master online after a bit of searching.

This is from the Clemson Tae Kwon Do club website.

The late Master Hyong Ung Hong first started teaching Tae Kwon Do in 1961 -
63 to the Korean Army Combat Division. In 1963 - 64 he was the instructor
for the Korean C. I. A. and in 1964 - 65 he was a Korean Military Academy
instructor. In 1965 he won the World Tae Kwon Do Championships in his weight
division. Enter U. S. A. in 1966 he was the first master to bring Tae Kwon
Do to the Carolinas by becoming the head instructor at Southeaster Tae Kwon
Do Institute In Greenville, SC. In January of 1967 he founded the Clemson
University Tae Kwon Do Club. In 1977 he was named Tae Kwon Do Instructor of
the year by the World Tae Kwon Do Federation. On September 1, 1983, Master
Hong was killed while traveling to Korea. Flight KAL 007 drifted into Soviet
air space and was shot down by soviet jet fighters. His positive influence
is still felt by all who knew him.
