As a premise, it is necessary to strengthen the crackdown capabilities of the Gambling Industry Integration Supervision Committee. Sixth, for illegal gambling that is still buried in illegality and does not comply with government policies, sanctions should be strong enough to take full advantage of not only traditional penalties such as imprisonment and fines, but also the criminal return system. Korea's legal gambling industry has been tied to the total sales system and has only focused on "sharing total" competition among legal gambling industries, but now it is facing a triple whammy (苦) that must prepare for competition with overseas markets and at the same time overcome the fight against illegal gambling, which has become deformed. You may not want to admit it, but illegal gambling has already become a dark side of society, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to crack down and punish illegal gambling.

The fact that a stable living base has not been established is something to be pointed out, and there is a part to work together to prevent unfortunate events from happening again. Since face-to-face is not a form that directly employs managers, there will be limitations in terms of roles, but if there is anything that the face-to-face do not know, I think it will be helpful to indirectly derive improvement plans and solve difficulties by recognizing them. Face-to-face business is also a business. I think the concept of corporate management or face-to-face business itself is the same. In corporate management, there are shareholders who are investors, CEOs who manage them, and organizations that constitute them. The face-to-face business is also an investor shareholder, and the CEO will be an assistant teacher.

Park Sung-ki, secretary-general of the Enforcement Industry Supervision Committee, emphasized the need for budget, organization, and cooperation to crack down on illegal gambling. Heo Tae-kyun, a psychology professor at Korea University, said, "In Japan, illegal gambling is called gambling and the legal gambling industry is called Gamble," and pointed out, "The legal gambling industry should be developed into sound leisure, and illegal gambling should be prevented unconditionally regardless of the profits flowing into the legal gambling industry." "There are investigations that the regulation of legal gambling projects is not helping to eradicate illegal gambling at all," said Professor of the Department of Criminology at Kwangwoon University in Jonghwa Lee, and Hong Deok-hwa, head of the Citizens' Solidarity for Addiction Prevention, said, "If we block the illegal gambling market worth more than 100 trillion won, we can solve the civil servants' pension."

Even from the perspective of fans betting on horse racing, there may be an idea that they donate to a certain extent to be used in a good place in society, not just to stop buying tickets. Therefore, the perception of horse racing itself does not flow in a bad direction. Since Korea is run by the state and most of the profits are returned to the national treasury, social public interest activities are not directly visible to the public. Even people who buy horse racing recognize that the profits of horse racing are taken by the horse society. It will not be easy to raise awareness of horse racing in this environment. If the proceeds of horse racing are directly seen being used for social welfare, education, medical care, and support for the poor, who will see horse racing negatively.

They say they consider the wealth they have gained to be a blessing from God. That's why I think it's natural to share the blessings from God with my neighbors. I think so, too. From the perspective of the general public, I have earned a tremendous amount of prize money, and God will be a blessing. Our undefeated team earned 3 billion won a year, so what else would it be if it weren't a blessing from God? I think it's too lucky for me to have all of them. Macau horse racing is one of the countries where horse racing is much ahead of us. Systemically, it is not much different from Korean horse racing. However, the Macau-facing culture is different from that of Korean horse racing. It seems that the Macau-facing culture is not the one who makes money by earning prize money.

Nevertheless, I thought that the prize money returning to Ma-ji was big enough to be a blessing and a winter. I didn't allow it for Ma-ji to take all of them, and I felt that I should give them back to society and share them. I hoped that it would be talked about by donating in the name of a horse rather than in my name for a long time. I thought doing so would be a reward for the words. When I donated in the name of a horse in particular, the name of the horse was inducted into the Hall of Fame, and it was very rewarding. As it became known through various media at the time of the donation, I wonder if they are seeing it as a representative of Korea. Rather than having to donate in their name, I think it would be appropriate to share special income with the world because they are economically stable.

During the period when Jamain "Temporary Unbeatable" and "Indie Band" were on a roll with brilliant records, there were also anecdotes that horse racing fans recognized their faces first and pretended to know each other and asked Jung Young-sik for an autograph. Let's listen to his honest story, who is the vice president of the Busan-Gyeongnam Myeon Association and also the face of Macau Horse Racing. While running a company, he has carried out various public interest activities. He also made a lot of donations because he thought that he would have to do something meaningful on the same line of existing public interest activities by achieving great success while doing face-to-face activities, making a big prize money. Although horses belong to the face, I don't think the role of the horse in the process of earning money is significant.

However, Busan seems to be more competitive because Let's Run Park Seoul operates horse shops at the association level, and Let's Run Park Pukyeong operates private horse shops. Mainly, Seoul feels small and tight, and Busan feels large in a straight line. There is no special secret. I was lucky to meet good people and horse managers. I think the secret is meeting good people around me. My group uses Irish feed called 'Red Mill' and it's okay for me personally. There is no special difference in teaching style from other groups. However, they are constantly teaching at regular intervals. In the case of other Korean groups, they take two weeks off or do teaching at regular intervals, but in our group, they do so in a couple of days. As I keep teaching assistant, I think I get less injured than doing too much training in a short time before the race.

In particular, the task of organizing, and streamlining non-core businesses was to be addressed, and theme parks and horseback riding classes other than the horse racing business should be entrusted to the private sector, and idle assets should be sold.Regarding the promotion of the function adjustment of public institutions, an official from the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry and its affiliated organizations said, "The goal is currently set. It is not yet clear how the adjustment will be made. As the implementation of the function adjustment has been decided, the horse racing society will come up with a practical plan through the service. The basic thing is not to reduce the size or role of the horse racing society. However, the horse racing society will focus more on the horse racing industry, which is important for fostering the horse industry, and allow the private sector to participate in non-core projects," he said.

This horse was purchased by my father at the time of the U.S. auction and was named and managed by my mother. I haven't seen racing consistently, but I think it is suitable for Korean racing due to the nature of my horse race, so I participated in this competition. I'm always rooting for him, but I'm so happy that he ran a good race. My father is registered as a foreigner face-to-face in Korea, and he wants to contribute to the development of Korean horse racing by introducing training facilities and technologies in Jeju. I want to take today's joy to Japan and enjoy it. I watched the race with great excitement. Since Fujii had a lot of experience in Korea, I heard a lot of stories and prepared for the development. I don't like horses to splatter in sand, so I studied a lot about how to overcome this.

Currently, the Korean horse community seems to be doing well to strengthen its competitiveness. For example, holding international competitions such as the 'Korea Cup' in Korea or sending out excellent Korean racehorses to Dubai and Singapore are doing well. If you increase your contact with international horse racing in this way, there is a good chance.First of all, I am sorry about the recent horse management incident at Let's Run Park in Busan and South Gyeongsang Province. The working hours of foreign horse managers are the same as those of Korea. However, the treatment of Korean horse managers is decent in that they receive a certain portion of the prize money. Some European countries, including Ireland, also have regulations that a portion of the prize money should be paid, but compared with the treatment, Korea is okay.

As the number of good horses in pedigree has increased, good grades can be expected. Recently, the composition of people visiting the horse racing park has diversified to include family customers accompanied by young children and young people who come to play with lovers or friends, in addition to horse racing fans who enjoy horse racing. I think it is currently a process of transforming into a healthy leisure sport. In order to bring about a bigger change in this process, it is also possible to use horses for the general public to see and enjoy rather than focusing on horse racing. The general public should be able to come and go naturally without hesitation on a daily basis. Thomas's assistant teacher's family in Ireland is a horse racing family. His grandfather and father were assistant teachers, and other family members are said to have been connected to horses such as jockeys.

If anything, there is a slight difference in the main.In addition to sand, there are many races in Europe and Malaysia on grass. Korea still does not have grass. The difference is the difference. There are also some differences in racing style. In Korea, there are many attempts to take the lead in the early stages of the race. I try to be ahead if possible. However, in Europe, there are various styles such as chuipma and free horse that are hit from the rear rather than the style of a good horse. My family has a deep relationship with horses. My grandfather and father taught as assistants in Ireland, and other family members have jobs related to horses, such as assistants and jockeys. I have actually been an assistant since my debut in Malaysia in 2010, but I have been living with horses for quite a long time. Korean horse racing is showing a lot of development now.

Three years is a long time or a short time, but you have understood Korean horse racing by seeing, hearing, and feeling it on the front lines of Korean horse racing. In addition, his performance, which is currently ranked at the top of the assistant teacher's ranking at Let's Run Park Pukyong, proves that he is already familiar with Korean horse racing. Now, he is a member who is making a new history of Korean horse racing beyond just a foreign assistant teacher, and he seemed to have affection for Korean horse racing. From the perspective of Thomas, a foreign assistant teacher, I check the current address of Korean horse racing. There is a foreign acquaintance among the racehorse producers in Jeju, so I visited Korea with their introduction. They said that Korean horse racing is currently developing a lot and the future prospects are bright.

In particular, local governments are attractive in that they have no tax resistance as they can contribute to the expansion of local finances without increasing the tax burden on the people. Some point out that the government is trying to raise the tax rate of leisure tax items and introduce casino tax, following resident tax and automobile tax, under the pretext of strengthening poor local finances.However, opposition is also expected to be strong. Amid mounting voices calling for the legal gambling industry to strengthen its competitiveness while the legal gambling industry is suffering further social damage due to strong regulations by the integrated supervision committee, raising the leisure tax seems to be an anachronistic idea to stifle the legal gambling industry and eventually kill the entire legal gambling industry.

Under this recognition, this article aims to restore a healthy Korea by seeking fundamental countermeasures to face illegal gambling. First, it is now necessary to implement a combined illegal integrated gross sales system that can encompass the illegal market by breaking away from the view of total quantity, which was previously focused only on the legal market. To this end, the gambling industry integration supervisory committee should conduct regular surveys on illegal gambling and develop realistic policies that can absorb the illegal market as much as possible into the legal market. Second, it is necessary to strengthen the competitiveness of our legal gambling industry so that it can target both illegal and overseas markets at the same time. To this end, it is necessary to establish a strategy differentiated from illegal and overseas markets, while dramatically improving refund rates and betting methods.
