The kick he uses is technically a twisting kick, or Bituro Chagi. He described it wrong himself.
The twisting kick is extremely rare and korean MA specific with not much use apart from essentialy being able to do a front kick AROUND a target. It uses the ball of the foot and out outside angling of the hips and knee flexion (like a front kick) to achieve the kick. The foot is then withdrawn back along the same path.
10 second mark of the form

The cresent kick is different (Bandal chagi) and is the commonly seen kick in all sorts of martial arts. It uses the outside of the foot as the striking area and uses the hip adductors and hip twist to generate the power, swinging the foot up and across/throughthe target. It swings through the target rather than being withdrawn back along the path it came from.#
