Last Sunday, there was a ceremony to deliver the Dubai World Cup merit plaque at Pukyong, Let's Run Park. I jokingly said this there. "Our horses will stay in a good stable like a hotel for 3 to 4 months and then come back to Korea, and I'm worried about whether they will be able to adapt well." Indeed, Dubai's stable is hotel-class compared to our stable. First of all, the floor space is large, and air conditioning is installed in each stable. And everything is pleasant. Next to it is an exercise grassland, where eight animals stay, but it is only a flat with a massage room. It is unimaginable for us. It is true that Dubai is a rich country.

We won the match on Super Saturday, with Triple Nine ranked fifth and Nani ranked sixth. Park Kang-ho, the ambassador to the United Arab Emirates, jokingly said, "Japan still won." And the word "Nani" means the international rating is 113, so I ran in a 2,000-meter race at the Dubai World Cup later. I came in fifth place and was on the same plane as Masu Yoshida who came back from Dubai. To be honest, we won the match. Objectively, it is true that the difference with Japan is quite wide. The number of horse racing officials in Dubai made a big difference. There were about 10 in total, but Japan seems to have about 30 to 40 reporters and 100 reporters including those involved.

The horse was such a good horse that I didn't get a vote on the outside, but I also thought I might have exhausted my energy inside. It's a consequential story, but I can't help but wonder if I would have won first and second place on Super Saturday, not fourth place, if I hadn't competed twice in the Dubai World Cup Carnival. There are no special episodes. If anything, we talked about it as a joke. The last Godolphin Mile race was raining a lot the day before, and other horses probably hadn't been in a lot of rain races, so we jokingly said that we hope it will continue to rain. Since we've run in rain and in wet sand, we thought that if it keeps raining, it would be advantageous for us.

When my horse runs in a regular race, I leave everything aside and visit the racetrack. In fact, it is not easy to fly long distances for 9 to 10 hours at a considerable age. However, I think it is the duty of the two sides to be with my horse when he runs. And what I must see is also a must-see personality. In fact, I'm not a free person, but I think it was up to my mind more than anything. If I think about it now, it remains regrettable what it would have been like to play one game at the Dubai World Cup Carnival. I think I was able to participate in Super Saturday alone since I finished first in the carnival race by a one-head gap. Domestic horses, including Triple Nine, usually competed every five to six weeks in Korea.

To this end, all assistant teachers who directly manage and manage race horses, which is an important axis in implementing horse racing, will make ceaseless efforts to present a more thrilling, fair and reliable race. I take this opportunity to promise you that I will always think of horse racing fans first and do my best to show better horse racing. Currently, Korean Horse Racing is striving to enter advanced horse racing for a new leap forward with its long history. Many changes and efforts are being made to implement horse racing and change the system accordingly, and to produce and introduce excellent horse racing. Despite these efforts by the horse racing industry, various regulations are undermining the horse racing industry's efforts to advance horse racing, and many parts are stagnating.

The years-long recession and the declining trend of the horse racing industry are causing anxiety to all racers and demanding new challenges. Korean horse racing is facing the issue of globalization and the expansion of the base of various classes of the horse racing and horse racing population. Some of you may not feel it yet, but it is true that each part of the Korean horse racing industry is already facing significant internationalization and demands of the times. In particular, the Korean horse racing industry thinks that with the successful hosting of the Asian Horse Racing Conference, preparations for Korean horse racing to compete on an equal footing with advanced horse racing countries are becoming visible, and above all, new inflows from various classes are required to boost interest in horse racing and take off the stagnant horse racing industry.

In July last year, several Korean horses participated in the Singapore Horse Racing Competition. One of my horses called "Triple Five" participated in the competition, but the horse's performance was not good since then. He had a two-month vacation due to poor racing performance in October and November. Perhaps because of such experience, he was not happy to participate in international competitions overseas, and he instantly became reluctant to participate. So when I asked what horses would participate in Korea, he said that they would include "Power Blade," "Main Stay," "Department Demention," and "Seoul Bullitt." "Triple Nine" is a Korean representative horse that has been selected as a representative horse for two consecutive years,

Despite the severe sluggish sales and internal problems in Let's Run Park Busan and Gyeongnam, I would like to deeply thank everyone who participated in the inland domestic horse auction held on May 29th, as the worst situation seems to have been avoided due to the generous interest of the assistant teachers and staff. Producers are very motivated and have high expectations for the new head of the Korean Horse Association's willingness to focus on fostering the horse industry. Just as there is light and darkness in all societies, there are many farmers who have jumped into bankruptcy or closed their businesses in the 30-year history of domestic horse production.

Triple Nine," who has been selected as the representative horse of the year for the second consecutive year and has become the representative horse of Korea, has made a page in the history of Korean horse racing by standing on the final stage of the Dubai World Cup, the dream stage for the first time as a domestic horse race. Although it was disappointing to finish 11th out of a total of 13 at the Godolphin Mile Competition, the last race, it is said that it has shown a further improvement in Korean horse racing. Choi Byung-bu, the face-to-face, also kept his promise with horse racing fans by participating in "Triple Nine" until the final.

Thank you for your efforts in developing the horse industry, such as horse racing and horseback riding, and for contributing greatly to the recognition that the horse industry is not a gambling industry, but a horse racing culture and the birthplace of the livestock industry. Korea's history of horse racing is almost 100 years away, but as seen in foreign cases, the horse industry still has a lot of homework for further development because it is not an industry that takes place overnight. Furthermore, the production history of thoroughbreds in Korea has been less than 30 years, so it faces many challenges, including infrastructure policies, system improvements, and racehorses. Although it is developing with ceaseless efforts, frequent policy changes can cause great confusion in production, so long-term horse racing policies based on the production industry are urgently required.

As is well known, the horse racing industry is also facing internal and external crises and upheaval amid the Fourth Industrial Revolution and the rapidly changing world situation. Korean horse racing has also faced an era of transformation. Above all, the vital task of revitalizing the horse racing industry is to establish the horse racing industry as a new growth engine and promising business for the rural economy. To put it simply, the core of the horse industry is horse racing. Industrial growth and financing through horse racing are the driving force behind the development of the horse industry, and if its essence is shaken, the horse industry will lose its roots. In order to cope with the internal and external crises of Korean horse racing, the identity of horse racing must be established above all else, and we must all keep in mind that real change and innovation are only possible through communication and co-prosperity.

Korea Racing Authority, which has embarked on a great journey of advancement and internationalization of horse racing, is doing its best to become a member of global horse racing after entering Part II country, opening a new era of horse racing welfare, and accelerating the improvement of horse-centered thinking (思考) and horse racing infrastructure. It is also accompanied by efforts by horse racing to successfully host the Asian Horse Racing Conference this year to promote the status of Korean horse racing to the world and find solutions to advancement through international exchanges. Although there are still a lot of horse racing issues to be resolved, I think the positive achievements of the horse racing industry will continue in the future and overcome the current horse racing crisis.

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.However, we racers did not lose hope despite the unfavorable conditions, and with the interest and support of horse racing fans, we began a real race of change and innovation.

Producers are very motivated and have high expectations for the new head of the Korean Horse Association's willingness to focus on fostering the horse industry. Just as there is light and darkness in all societies, there are many farmers who have jumped into bankruptcy or closed their businesses in the 30-year history of domestic horse production.

In the horse auction market of more than 20 years, the biggest crisis for racehorse production farmers has recently been faced with a big drop in the winning bid rate and the winning average price, so we hope that a solid breakthrough will be made through the improvement of the horse racing system and the establishment of long-term policies suitable for Korean horse racing. Each related organization, including the race implementer, may have its own difficulties, but I hope that it will be reborn as a healthy and exciting development of the Korean horse racing industry through the discovery of the policy of blessing in disguise. Teacher Jeong Ho-ik obtained a master's degree in the Department of Horse Industry at Jeju International University in July with a thesis titled "The Effect of Eating Red Ginseng Ingredient Feed on the Improvement of Race Capability."

It was not only the honor of racing media but also the joy of all those involved in the horse industry to be selected as news search partners by Naver and Daum Kakao in 2017. I hope that they will discover more novel and new news and serve as a lighthouse for the horse industry. These days, Naver and Daum Kakao are also flooded with countless articles and promotional materials. For this reason, content that is not authentic and novel is often neglected by customers. It is filled with more stimulating content to hold customers' eyes. These things may attract attention for a moment, but they tend to become less persistent.

There are also hopeful elements of multilateral business and the global advancement of Korean horse racing, but regulations and negative perceptions of horse racing darken the future of Korean horse racing. In order for our horse racing to be competitive and grow to be on par with advanced countries in foreign countries, it is necessary to continue investing in horse racing, and unreasonable system and infrastructure improvement must be carried out in parallel. And the implementation of all the plans should be carried out through sufficient consultation with horse racing organizations. The connection between Choi Soon-sil, Jeong Yu-ra and horseback riding remains in the public consciousness as vague negative perceptions of the horse industry despite many efforts on the ground. Various efforts and practices are needed to overcome that perception at a time like this.

This is also in line with our Internet newspapers' efforts to deliver the world's news quickly. With the advent of the 4th Industrial Revolution, a wide range of keywords such as artificial intelligence and big data are emerging, and new values are expected to be created and developed. The horse industry has been a field of very high importance for data since the past. New information and communication technologies and data will be combined to form an axis of the intelligent information society, and I have no doubt that the Horse Industry Journal will be at the center of its role. Currently, Korean horse racing is at the crossroads of many crises and challenges due to sharp drops in sales, customer churn, and discriminatory perceptions of society that do not improve easily.

There is an urgent need to introduce a subsidy system equivalent to the compensation for the closure of racehorse production farms, which are equivalent to the compensation for the closure of the FTA, so that farmers who are facing limited conditions can find a new way to sustain their livelihoods. This system is considered necessary not only for the farmers who are producing racehorses but also for the farmers who are suffering from severe management crisis. The government and the Korean Horse Association are urged to take extraordinary interest and come up with policies to ensure the sustainable growth of horse production farms. Horses have existed with humans. They were used as a means of transportation, carrying human cargo, and for combat purposes. In the late Joseon Dynasty, they also served as information and communications services for Pavalma, which delivered urgent official documents or news to remote areas from government offices.
