However, our horsemen did not lose hope despite the unfavorable conditions, and with the interest and support of our horse racing fans, they started a real race of change and innovation.

In recent years, Korea's horse industry has been going through a period of upheaval, suffering from growth pain of change and innovation. With the implementation of the Horse Industry Promotion Act, expectations for growth and development of the Korean horse industry are gathering, but the reality is that it is still insufficient, such as not having practical effects in the field. In addition, the wounds of our horse racers have not healed amid public distrust and misunderstanding of the horse industry during the government manipulation last year.

The existence of the Let's Run Foundation itself is possible because of customers of horse racing. I thought that horse racing customers should come to the forefront in all fields. The Let's Run Foundation also wants to make it clear that the donation agent is the horse racing customer. Korean horse racing has undergone tremendous changes in a short period of time in terms of culture, and is still changing to a positive aspect. As the customer level has been upgraded, it is now necessary to inform horse racing customers as the subject who provides financial resources for social contribution projects, not gamblers. Since the Korean Horse Association, which is the parent company, is a public enterprise, the Let's Run Foundation's policy is set by the national government and the mission of the Korean Horse Association. However, the first horse racing in Korea was born to raise funds to encourage horse racing, and participants participated in horse racing to donate.

There are also hopeful factors for diversified businesses and the advancement of Korean horse racing into the world away from the one-dimensional horse racing industry,

This is because the hidden efforts of the executives and employees of the Horse Culture Newspaper and the Horse Industry Journal have been added to grow into such a promising industry. Horses have existed with humans. They became transportation, carried human loads, and were used for combat purposes. In the late Joseon Dynasty, they also served as information and communication services for Pavalma to deliver urgent official documents or news to regions far from the official residence. This is in line with the efforts of our Internet newspapers to deliver the world's news quickly.

Just as there is light and darkness in all societies, there are many farmers who have gone bankrupt or closed their businesses after jumping enthusiastically in the 30-year history of domestic racehorse production. There is an urgent need to introduce a subsidy system for the closure of racehorses production farms, which is equivalent to the FTA's closure subsidy, so that racehorses production farms facing limitations can seek new avenues to sustain their livelihoods, which is considered necessary not only for racehorses production farms but also
