A method common to Tekken games that lets you backdash multiple times in a row extremely quickly. In Tekken, you can cancel the recovery of a backdash with pretty much anything (called, predictably, "Backdash Canceling"). Korean backdashing cleverly uses down-back to cancel a backdash in progress, and immediately count as the first back input for your next backdash. After backdashing once, repeat (down-back, neutral, back) in rapid succession to continually cancel your backdash into crouch, and then start a new backdash as fast as possible.

The technique is named for Korean players who discovered it in Tekken Tag Tournament, and used it to great success in some American events. The execution takes a fair bit of practice to get used to, but the fast movement it allows is very powerful, and it's often seen as a benchmark skill to transition into higher level Tekken play.
