Totally different thatn TKD? I would go with Wing Chun, Arnis, Boxing or JJJ. All have vastly different footwork (the most similar being Wing Chun) and a very different emphasis on the use of the hips (boxing being the most similar)

Karate is quite similar to taekwondo, with less emphasis on kicking. You can also learn krav maga, which is one specifically designed for combat situations. Kickboxing and muaythai are very useful also.

lol taekwondo isn't a martial art, it's a sport and as for having well rounded off moves. learn Jook Lum (southern preying mantis kung fu) people learning Jook Lum can't spar because there are no defensive moves. They would end up killing eachother

Jeet kune do takes moves from various styles in order to be effective. It is very well rounded.

Things like silat, Karate, and kung fu would probably be something you enjoy. or maybe even tang soo doo or moo duk kwan taekwondo. which is my style. It puts emphasis on kicks, but is still more rounded than WTF or ITF Schools
