Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of Silver Taekwondo in enhancing the physical and psychological health of elderly individuals in a super-aged society. Based on this analysis, the study aims to provide foundational data for expanding and revitalizing the practice of Silver Taekwondo and to propose methods for maintaining health through sustained physical activity among the elderly. Method: This study used major academic databases like PubMed, Google Scholar, and KISS to find peer-reviewed papers and policy reports from the past decade with keywords such as 'Silver Physical Activities,' 'Elderly Physical Activities,' 'Taekwondo,' and 'Senior Taekwondo.' The literature was analyzed to assess the current state and key issues of Silver Physical Activities and Silver Taekwondo. Data reliability was ensured through repeated reviews and discussions by the researchers and a peer expert group. Results: The study found that From 2015 to 2023, the number of Silver Taekwondo participants, programs, and facilities increased, with participation rates rising from 2.5% to 5.5%. Despite improved online support due to COVID-19, issues such as accessibility, economic constraints, and program inadequacy persist. While community cooperation and online support have increased since 2021, facility shortages and a lack of qualified experts remain unresolved, underscoring the need for comprehensive approaches and policy efforts. Conclusion: To promote the active participation of elderly individuals in Silver Taekwondo, it is necessary to develop tailored programs that align with their physical conditions and health levels, improve accessibility to public and private Taekwondo facilities, enhance the expertise of instructors through training and certification systems, expand policy support and financial incentives, and establish regular feedback mechanisms. A strategic approach incorporating these elements is expected to improve both the physical and mental health of the elderly and increase participation rates.
