These might be Japanese words.

It's kind of hard to say for sure though, because the word "joon bi" (준비 準備) means "prepare" (or get ready), and it is pronounced exactly the same in both Korean and Japanese.

The first part of the word you have listed is the Japanese word for "stand" and when used in combination with other words (and that is the case here), it could mean many things. But since taking a position (to include many that require you to be standing) is very common in martial arts, it leads me to believe it's Japanese.

Oh~ good. Joon bi is right as willy's say. But the first part of the word is not Korean lang. There is no such that Korean lang.
