Racing Media, the only professional total media organization in the Korean horse industry, comprehensively deals with the Korean horse industry, including the internationalization of the horse racing industry and the popularization of the horse racing industry.

Recently, older horses in the Mabang are doing well, but they are choosing to take enough rest when they take a break, which seems to lead to good results. Thank you for always helping me, and I will do my best to repay you with a victory. Hwang In-sung, who majored in law, expressed interest in the conflict of related bills, which is a sharp issue in the horse industry today. Hwang In-sung, a reporter, said, "I want to find out the issues that are holding back the development of the horse industry and highlight them. I will help the government and the Korean horse society policy meet the needs of the field."

With the signing of an agreement on industrial development at the end of February 2016, the obstacles to going to Jeju Horse Racing were resolved. I couldn't take the Jeju Horse Racing the way it is now. I had to provide customers with products that I didn't feel ashamed of.First of all, we have prepared a 'school system' that systematically conducts production from the production process. Last year, we first reviewed good research data on how to produce and foster Thoroughbred before and after. There are many data related to Thoroughbred in foreign countries and Korea, but none of them were Jeju horses. Standards related to Thoroughbred could not be applied to Jeju horses.

On the other hand, Jeju Horse Racing Authority has never made such efforts. The general public's perception of Jeju Horse Racing Authority and even the staff's perception is that "Jeju Horse Racing Authority can just run with it there." Like Thoroughbred, the process of production, training, and fostering is not systematic, but at some point, they are put into the race because they are old. As they enter the race without training, their professionalism decreases and there are many accidents. Horses also run at a lower level. The quality of the race is deteriorating with good horses. The Jeju Horse Racing Authority is broadcast in Seoul and Busan, and customers have complained that they cannot watch it and that they are not interested in it.

Jeon Sung-won, the current head of the win-win marketing division, and Kim Jin-gap, the head of the Jeju Regional Headquarters at the time of the agreement for the win-win development of the horse industry, are still communicating with farmers in a responsible manner on this important issue, constantly developing related policies and applying them to the field. At a special zone meeting held in Jeju in June last year, Jeon Sung-won, the head of the win-win marketing division, called for the central government's attention and set a direction with Jeju Special Self-Governing Province to foster Hallama, which will be removed from the racehorse from 2023, as Korea's representative passenger horse.

He was able to learn various ways of riding through his activities in Macau and became a stepping stone for his growth even after returning to Korea. "I hope that my juniors will be able to freely advance into overseas markets through me, rather than putting pressure on my achievements," said Moon Se-young, a jockey who cheered for the growth of their juniors. "I felt that I needed to change because I was afraid to stay. I think that if I adapt to a difficult place, I will become more mature mentally and physically in the future as I ride a horse," he said. With the Korean Racing Authority continuing its strides throughout the year, Moon Se-young, the "Prince" jockey, has come forward this time.

When she expressed her desire to enter overseas markets at the end of last year, the International Racing Department of the Korean Racing Authority also actively cooperated and contacted the Singapore Tough Club. Despite Singapore's tough conditions for introducing jockeys and allocating jockeys, a short-term license was granted on February 20. Singapore is an "advanced Asian horse racing country" classified as a part 2 country by the International Race Classification Committee, which is far ahead of Korea in terms of racehorses and internationalization. In particular, the conditions for introducing foreign jockeys at the Singapore Tough Club are known to be strict, but based on the excellent performance of jockeys Moon Se-young,

From my third year of university to my graduation, I took horse riding classes conducted by the Korean Horse Association. I completed the 'University Student Horse Industry Technology Training Course' and the 'Ranch Management Course' conducted by the Korean Horse Association. During my vacation, I briefly helped with my work at a horse riding course on Jeju Island and learned horse riding. At the Jeju Race Horse Yield, I learned a lot about race horses, including their ancestry and development process. I mainly studied them through the Internet. There are not many data on horses in Korea, so I obtained information through foreign horse-related websites or YouTube. I usually use sites called bloodhorse or the hose,

During the 2014 Gyeonggi Province Governor's Cup, I dressed up in special clothes and won, so I dressed up in purple again this time to cheer for Pinot Noir. This horse is named after my favorite wine, and I should go for a cup of Pinot Noir with the people who cheered for me today. I didn't expect much, but I think I got a good result because I had consistently experienced racing. The Dong-A Ilbo had a short distance, so I was worried that I might be catching up. I saw that this race has strength because it is a long distance of 2,000M, and I even expected to win the championship. I am happy to win for two consecutive games, and I hope it has brought a little joy to the horse racing fans. Due to the slow initial flow, I decided that the jockey might be able to take the lead and displayed a moving development.

My father faced me and told me to study horses. At that time, I was studying livestock management, distribution, and economics at Konkuk University, and I thought I should ride horses to study horses. While riding horses, I began to communicate directly with horses. As I touched horses myself, I fell into the charm of horses without realizing it. I always read books and videos related to horses, and I looked for various educational programs to dream of raising horses. After graduating from university, I joined the Jeju Ranch as a contractor by chance. While working, I learned and learned a lot about horses. After the contract was over, I began to raise horses in earnest.

In fact, Melbourne is a horse racing area recognized by the whole area, so I am proud of it, and I am grateful that the results follow as much as I have worked hard. I don't think you should be complacent in order to grow. I had no fear in my decision because I thought that gaining new experiences in various places was the way to grow me. Also, I heard that the Korean horse racing market is growing. I think it is a good opportunity because I think there are many things to learn and experience in growing horse racing.Basically, the beginning is very fierce in Korea. In the end, this is also due to the main difference, but in the case of Australia, since it is mainly grass, it is a method of following the horse as much as possible to build up power in the beginning and then sprinting at the last minute.

I thought I knew the horse well and studied it a lot, but raising a horse myself was different from what I thought. I dreamed of a life of running around and relaxing with a horse. However, in reality, there are many difficulties because there are many things to do besides horse management, such as grassland management, facility management, and government support. Currently, I am receiving help from my father and those around me who have a lot of experience in horses. Because I am young, I have the advantage of being able to work passionately. I can work for my horse without weighing this or that. I'm still lacking a lot right now, so I'm trying to gain as many experiences as possible.

Now, the 'Mayon-a-horse' is continuing to develop, and the future 'Mayon-a-horse' will play a role in creating the popularization of horse riding. I also have confidence in this. However, I don't know how long it will take. Daemyung Group's "Mayon A Horse" is aimed at promoting CSI5* to create an environment where foreign players can bring their horses to Korea and have a normal horse-riding competition with their existing horses. In addition, I pay tribute to the management of Daemyung Group, which plays such a role without being selfish. Horse-riding is politically intertwined due to a series of situations. Horse-riding people, who have worked silently so far, may be the victims of the Choi Soon-sil scandal.

Horse auction' is a policy project of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry. In line with this, Daemyung added the auction part. It proceeded differently from the auction before. However, fundamental measures are needed for the development of the horse industry. The horse industry project has been started with government policies for the past five years.I know it first started between 2011 and 2012, but if creating 500 horse racing stadiums and training horse racing professionals were part of the first project in the first five years, the five-year plan for horse racing development seems to be currently drifting. Therefore, I think we need to change the drifting project into a virtuous cycle structure that can encompass everything, including the trading market.

When I was a jockey trainee, I rode Thoroughbred and Hallama at the same time. Only those who have experienced such speed know, so I miss it, but now I am riding Thoroughbred and Warmbred at Halla University, so I don't have much missed it. I sometimes think of the time when I rode Thoroughbred, but I am satisfied with Jeju horse racing, which is now dominated by Jeju horse and Hallama. The color of the flag bearer is dull. I put black, which I personally like, and the belt of the chest is red. In any field, people work with passion, and to recall that passion in their hearts, they put a passionate red color. Yellow color is a warning sign, but since he had strong determination since his debut, he added,

In Australian age, he has been riding a horse since the age of 16. In fact, I had never ridden a horse before, but my father was a jockey in Australia, so I was lucky to get a chance. I loved sports and had athleticism, so I was able to adapt quickly. Above all, riding a horse was so fun and happy. Then I became a job. Last season, I won the honor of winning the GI competition twice, including the South Australian Oaks. I think my hard work, thinking that it is the same whether it is a big competition or a small competition, resulted in good results. I don't feel nervous about big competitions or anything, and I try to keep calm. In Melbourne, I was in the top 10 of the multi-victory rankings.

Jeju Horse is a native and natural monument No. 347. It is about the size of a pony, but it requires a more balanced feeling than when it was on Love Red, and its personality is strong. The tension is twice as high as when riding Love Red. It makes you practice more and put in more effort. The fact that Jeju Horse has a low body weight, so the speed of feeling is different than when riding Love Red is good. Hallama has a higher speed than Jeju Horse. Because it is a hybrid of Jeju horse and Thoroughbred, Hallama has a higher body height and is smaller than Thoroughbred, but its speed is faster, giving the audience tension like a Thoroughbred race. In Jeju horse racing, Jeju horse has a lower speed than Hallama, so it may be boring for horse racing customers.

It was established on March 18, 2014. Previously, the Korean Horse Association carried out various donations and social return activities in the social contribution team, but the establishment was promoted due to the need for a more active and professional foundation. The purpose of the foundation is to contribute to revitalizing society as a whole, promoting people's welfare, and enhancing the status of the horse industry by supporting job creation projects, talent development projects, cultural prosperity projects, welfare promotion projects for the vulnerable, and horse industry image improvement projects.

Practical practice is important to become a horseracing jockey, but a place where theoretical knowledge can be accumulated is an educational institution. I am incorporating theoretical knowledge and practical skills accumulated at school into the race. Since academic background is a document of proof that I have studied, I am preparing for my future dream. And I also want to be a father who is not ashamed of my children in the future. I am in the second grade this year, and I was worried because I was older than my classmates, but my classmates followed me well, making my school life enjoyable. It teaches me knowledge about horses that I know.

Until then, I didn't even know that I had a job as a jockey. I took the horseracing test and passed it, and I trained at the horse racing training center. It was scary because it was my first time encountering a horse, but when I saw a woman riding a horse well, I thought to myself, "Why should I be scared when others ride it?" Whenever I rode it afterwards, I rode it with the determination to fall on that day. It was the hardest not long after my debut. While training on the foal, I fell down with a horse and was crushed by a horse. Since then, I have had aftereffects of my ankle. Even now, I cannot run at full speed. It has not had much impact on racing, but at the time it was. My ankle was swollen due to a ligament tear and fracture,

Even if a horse has ridden a lot, it changes every day, so it understands its characteristics. Keep the horse's operation drawn in your head while making the most of its characteristics and plan it. Also, understanding the characteristics of a horse can prepare for safety accidents. Good deeds are advantageous in short distances, but they are disadvantageous in long distances. Because first-in-first-out is advantageous in short and long distances, people often ride first-in-first-out. At the 3rd and 4th positions, I keep watching the flow of the front horse and send the horse at the right time. It is more desperate for me than the secret. The desperation I feel is the driving force of the race. I set goals every year, but I always have a great desire to achieve them.
