Since I haven't been in TKD or a TKD school lately, I do not really know the current trend. Though, via my understanding of people I come in contact with, they are including other arts.
In the beginning, TKD was quickly promoted, especially by the Korean government (and boy, do I have a long explanation on this one), but there weren't enough teachers to do this. Hapkido instructors/practitioners gladly stuck their art alongside it. Therefore, one
may find more Hapkido along TKD, then say, Yudo, Hawrang Do, etc.,
