Hi Shin,
A friend on mine in your state tried. He told me that in TN you can just about forget it. There is indeed a permit system, but it costs something like $1000 per year and you have to carry huge liability insurance.
This is one of those ridiclous laws that were set up by polititions to protect people from themselves.
Sorry I don't have better news.
