2 things - the minimum hours required of the students by an instructor, or organization issuing the geup (grade) certificates, and the student's own level of progression. The minimum hours are a guideline only, and does not mean that just because you have a certain amount of hours, you will be allowed to test. How long it takes to learn is strictly up to the student and the work he/she puts in. Your Taekwondo Instructor or Master are the only ones who can determine if you have learned the material well enough to test, regardless of time.

How many belts are in taekwondo?
There is no set number of belts, and the number of different color belts depends on the organization. The student's progress is measured in increments known as "geup" (aka "gup") which means "grade." There are typically 8, 9, or 10 grades of promotion before the Black Belt, then 9 Degrees of the Black Belt (in some cases, a 10th Degree is awarded - usually posthumously or as an honorary non-active rank). In Korea, the beginner rank, often depicted by a white belt, is called "mu geup" (no grade), but some schools label the white belt as "sip geup" (10th grade).In some Taekwondo organizations, there are fewer colors, and an advancement in grade might be indicated by one, two, or three taped stripes on the end of the belt.An example of this might be as follows:No geup - white9th geup - yellow 18th geup - yellow 27th geup - green 16th geup - green 25th geup - blue 14th geup - blue 23rd geup - red 1 (or brown)2nd geup - red 2 (or brown)1st geup - red 3 (or brown)Black Belt Candidate - Cho Dan Bo(if under age 15 - 1st Poom through 4th Poom is a Jr. Black Belt)Black Belt 1st Dan - 9th DanAn example of using a different color for each grade might be like the following:No geup - white9th geup - yellow8th geup - gold7th geup - orange6th geup - green5th geup - purple4th geup - blue3rd geup - red2nd geup - brown1st geup - brown with black stripe through middle(note: the order of colors is traditionally supposed to go from light to dark on a gradual scale from white belt to Black Belt. Some schools switch the order of colors. The ATA also uses a camouflage belt. However, it is not the color of the belt that is important, but the grade that represents the progress level of knowledge and skills the student has learned at that point)
How many kyus are there in blue belt Tae kwon do belts?
The correct term for grade in Taekwondo is the Korean word "geup." There is usually only one geup per belt color, but sometimes there are two. This question uses incorrect terminology since Taekwondo is a Korean Martial Art, and the term "kyu" is Japanese for the color belt level or "grade." In the Korean language, the term for grade is "geup." The grading system is used to create short term goals for the student, and checkpoints for the Instructor on the path to reach 1st Degree Black Belt. The grades may be divided into any number, but typically begin at 8th grade, or 9th grade, and count down to the 1st grade being the highest level of color belt before attaining Black Belt. The white belt is the beginner rank that is either considered "mu geup" ("no grade") or represents a 10th level, or the 9th or 8th grade. Each grade after white belt is represented on the student's uniform by wearing a different color belt, or adding taped stripes to a current belt. Some Taekwondo schools and organizations use a different color for each grade, getting gradually darker toward the Black Belt, while others use one belt for two grades, and add stripes to show an advancement from a low grade to high grade of the same color. Example: Mu Geup = No Grade - White Belt Gu Geup = 9th Grade - Yellow Belt or White Belt Pal Geup = 8th Grade - Gold Belt or Low Yellow Belt Chil Geup = 7th Grade - Orange Belt or High Yellow Belt Yuk Geup = 6th Grade - Green Belt or Low Green Belt Oh Geup = 5th Grade - Purple Belt or High Green Belt Sa Geup = 4th Grade - Blue Belt or Low Blue Belt Sam Geup = 3rd Grade - Red Belt or High Blue Belt Yi Geup = 2nd Grade - Brown Belt or Low Brown Belt Il Geup = 1st Grade - Brown & Black Stripe Belt or High Brown Belt or Red Belt Il Dan = 1st Degree Black Belt
What is the meaning of ninth cup in tae kwon do?
If this is referring to the 9th grade level of ranking in Taekwondo, then the term "cup" (sometimes written as "kup" or "gup") is more accurately translated as geup (긒). Ninth grade or "gu geup" (구 긒), is a beginner level often reflected by the student wearing a white belt, or yellow belt. It means the student is new to training, or just starting the basics. There are often nine grades of color belt advancement toward the Black Belt, so the 9th grade is at, or near the beginning (white belt is sometimes considered mu geup "no grade, or sip geup "10th grade"). Some instructors and Taekwondo organizations will attach various philosophical meanings to the color of the belt, such as white representing snow, and yellow representing a seed. For this type of meaning, the student should ask their own instructor what is taught at their dojang.

Is there a green belt in Tae Kwon Do?
In Korean Tae Kwon Do, green belt is the third belt after white belt and means that you are of intermediate rank and may progress from solo one-step forms to free sparring. The green belt represents a student's progress toward black belt. It represents a certain level of skill or a certain set of skills. Each school sets its own curriculum, so two students from different school with a green belt might not know all the same kicks, blocks or forms. All belt systems are based on the system developed by Kanō Jigorō, the Japanese founder of Judo (and Jujitsu.) Originally, there were six student grades referred to by number. A student would begin at Grade 6 and work up to Grade 1: (6) white, (5) yellow, (4) orange, (3) green, (2) blue, (1) red. Then they would graduate to black belt. The black belts were divided into 9 ranks. A student would begin at Rank 1 and work up to Rank 9. Black belt ranks have been standardized, but student grades have not. Poetically, the green belt represents a plant growing from the earth as the student's skills develop.
