Answer 1

What country are you from?  You need to be a member of your country's national federation, which is a sub group of the WTF (World TKD Federation), which is the governing body.  

You must be a black belt.  Each country chooses it's own weight classes for which to try and qualify.  

For example, the US is only allowed 4 participants.  2 male, 2 female, and they will choose those that have the best chance to win a medal based on international results from other events like the world championships, pan am games, etc.

Answer 3

just give up cause you cant beat America ahahahaha. naw but really you need to look up where olympic trials are being held. a quick search on the internet should do it but they probably arent going to show up until a short time before the olympics start, so in the mean time you need to enter national competitions, which I would also suggest searching the internet for.
