Hwarang-Do (the oldest and more kicks then all the other Korean Arts), Tae Kwon Do, Tang Soo Do (Soo Bahk Do), Hapkido, Taekyon.
There was a handful of offspring Korean Systems that was "here today and gone tomorrow" in the 1950s & '60s...Shin Sool, Bi Sool, Yu Kwon Sool and a few others.
NOTE: There are over 4,000 offensive & defensive techniques in the Korean Art of Hwa Rang Do and witch by the way is more then 1800 years old.
I have studied and taught Korean Arts for more then 15 years. I hope this was helpful.

The major styles are Tae Kwon Do (The Way of the Foot & Hand) & its twin Tang Soo Do (The Way of the Edge of the Hand or The Way of the Hand of Tang) which are striking styles emphasizing foot techniques. & Hapkido (The Way of Spirit Unification) which are grappling styles. There is also the original Korean art of Tae Kyun (Focused Kicking) which is 1 of ther 2 oldes Asian MA I know of. There are also some weapons styles. TKD/ TSD & HKD are by far the most popular Korean Arts.

Korean martial arts, referred to in Korean as Musul (무ì hanja: æ¦è¡) or Muye (무ì hanja:æ¦è), are the various martial arts that originated or were modified in Korea. The most famous Korean martial arts in the West are perhaps Taekwondo and Hapkido, although there has been a revival of the bladed arts of Korean swords and swordsmanship as well as an interest in Korean knives and knife-fighting as well as the revival of archery on foot and on horse-back. The complexity of the Korean martial arts world and its ever-increasing schools rising from obscurity make interesting study.
