Yes. Joong-gi danbup is 50 motions (postures), Gun-gon danbup is 23 motions (postures), but Won-gi danbup is 365 motions (postures). It's not easy for an ordinary person to remember the names of all the motions (postures). But if practiced by knowing the principle of them, one will naturally get to know it. When I practiced the 365 motions (postures), I practiced 12 motions (postures) at a time. When the motions (postures) became ripe and their principle became understood, then I practiced the next 12 motions (postures). Thus, I repeated all the motions (postures) thousands of times.
My master said "The won-gi (source energy) energy of Won-gi danbup is the synthesis of all energies. Therefore, keep this won-gi (source energy) in your body and practice so that you could move your body as you intend."
Moving your body as you think seems easy, but at the same time it is a difficult matter.
Inhale time in the Won-gi danbup gradually increases. Inhale for a long time, but accumulate energy in the lower danjun and think that you are rolling the energy in the lower danjun and equally circulate the energy to the 12 meridian pathways. When doing this, bring the energy of the lower danjun down to the back of the anus. Then to the tips of both feet. Roll it up again, raise it up through the control path to the shoulder and to both tips of the hands. Back again to the shoulders and raise it up the head and this time, exhale the energy.
There are other more detailed energy-circulating motions (postures). But they are published in independent volumes.
And then master said,
"You have just finished the first step, 正覺道Jung-gahk-doh, of 仙道sundo. Jung-gahk-doh is the formless law of heaven, earth, and man. So first you forget your body with this practice." Then he told me to learn the next danbup.
Truthfully speaking, Won-gi danbup is an important base. It is the practice of adapting your whole body, from tip to tip, to a heavenly quality by following heaven's way. This is accomplished by circulating energy accumulated by the Gun-gon danbup haeng-gong through the 14 meridian vessels. The 14 vessels are composed of the 12 vessels plus the function and control vessels. Malfunction of the body will naturally vanish when Won-gi (source energy) overflows and circulates the body. One's body becomes healthy and, little by little, superhuman strength soars up.
