"In 1999, the celebrated Korean poet Jiha Kim, a onetime Dahn member, held a press conference and claimed that at least 200 women had been fondled by [Dahn Yoga leader Ilchi] Lee under the guise of spiritual training. (Lee has denied all claims of sexual misconduct.) Kim went on to call Dahn a 'criminal enterprise,' likening it to a Stalinist regime."I know: a poet giving a press conference? What?
Dahn Yoga seems to borrow from The Peoples Temple à la Jim Jones, Scientology, New Age spiritualism, and, well, yoga, if by yoga you mean exercising an insane amount.
Sounds fun! Sign me up.
