The ICFP aims for the worldwide defense and promotion of fair play with national and international organizations working for sport and education, high-level athletes, children, adolescents and those in charge of training them – coaches and trainers.

The WTF is an ordinary member of the ICFP. The ICFP voted Iranian Hadi Saei Bonehkohal, the gold medalist at the 2004 Athens Olympic Games, as the World Fair Player of the Year 2005 for his humanitarian efforts.

The ICFP has Mr. Juan Antonio Samaranch, former IOC president, and IOC President Jacques Rogge as its honorary presidents.

Prior to his nomination as the first president of the KFPC, WTF President Choue delivered a keynote speech under the topic "Olympism and Fair Play" before some 250 participants, mostly members of the Korean Olympic Academy, during the 2nd Korean Olympic Academy Congress at the Olympic Parktel in Seoul.

Among the participants were Mr. Jung-kil Kim, president of the Korean Olympic Committee; Mr. Seh-jik Park, former president of the Organizing Committee for the 1988 Seoul Olympic Games; and Mr. Dai-soon Lee, president of the Taekwondo Promotion Foundation.

A special demonstration of electronic protectors was conducted for participants. As part of its efforts to ensure fair judging and refereeing at taekwondo competitions, the WTF is pushing for the introduction of a new electronic protector system.
