Originally, the government planned to hold a youth equestrian event in the square in front of Seoul City Hall, but it did not go well. Then, the plan was to change it to a park behind the National Assembly building in Yeouido, Seoul, and push for it again, but it failed at the end. As the plan was finally changed to hold the event within the Korean Racing Authority, the association decided to hold the event directly from the event to the establishment of the venue. Previously, there was a budget in consideration of the installation of stands and LED lights required to hold events in other places, but it seems that it was pointed out that it was a lax operation in the process of implementing it. And to some extent, I agree with the lack of management.

Racing Media CEO Kim Moon-young, who presented the race, pointed out that the current military system needs to be completely reorganized through a comparison of the race system between Seoul and Pukyong, and argued that horse racing competitions should be improved to a system tailored to individual characteristics. Regarding the distribution of prize money in the ranking, it should be faithful to the fundamental nature of horse racing, which is the loss of the championship, but this forces the sacrifice of the opponents, and said that the profit-making part should gradually increase for the development of the horse racing industry. In conclusion, Kim said that the biggest difference in the system between Seoul and Pukyong can be summarized as stable operation and infinite competition, and argued that the only answer to resolving various conflicts between Seoul and Pukyong is to unify all implementation systems.

Busan on September 20, and questions and answers about the presentation of the Korean horse racing system, the lineage of racehorses, the purchase of foreign horses, and the improvement of the horse racing system continued, confirming the high interest of Pukyeong-facing members in the Korean horse racing industry as a whole. The member seminar, which was attended by about 70 Pukyong-horse owners and 10 officials from horse racing-related organizations, led by Chairman Kim Gap-soo's current report, "Problems and Improvements in the Korean Horse Racing System," "The Ancestry of Racehorses" by Seok Young-il, a professor at Seora Law University (former chief of the Korean Horse Association), "Procedures and Methods of Purchasing Foreign Horse" by Shin Young-in, head of the Martha Team of the Seoul Horse Racing Association, and "Plan to Implement a Rating-Based Handicap Race" by Byung-un, head of the Korean Horse Association's Race System Transition TF team, and discussions were held by attendees.

In this regard, the Student Horses Association believes that the youth should work harder to revive the crisis as an opportunity. Since I am a person who runs a business, I am trying to introduce a 'management mind' to the operation of the Student Horses Association. It is a kind of hide-and-seek concept. I will receive consulting from an expert, and if there is a talented person, I will recruit and work with him. In the past, the Korean Horse Racing Association provided service to sports marketing experts to prepare a plan to revitalize the horse racing competition. I plan to visit sports marketing experts such as Jeong Hee-yoon, a visiting professor at Hanyang University, who was in charge of the service business at the time,

It is not necessary to drive out Hallama at this point in time. We need to think deeply about the impact on future generations. To sum up what was mentioned earlier, this can be seen as a matter of will of the Korean Horse Association. If you increase the number of horsemen and races in Jeju Island, you will see more face-to-face and horses, and the effect of creating jobs in the region is clear, but it is regrettable that you only talk about deficits and neglect them. The Korean Horse Association, which is in the "super power" position, must surely go hand in hand with production farmers. We must communicate with them with inclusiveness and come up with reasonable alternatives. We should have held a public hearing and taken the lead in identifying the problem. As much as communication with customers who are fans of horse racing is important, I hope you will consider communication with our production farmers as important.

Chairman Choi Byung-wook, who was elected in a by-election held due to the resignation of his former chairman and began to take the helm of the student horse riding, is a former equestrian athlete and has been regarded as the right person to be the head of the student horse riding industry, including former student horse riding association executives, face-to-face association executives, and outside directors of the Korea Horse Association, and has been working to develop student horseback riding based on his field experience while serving as the president of the student horse riding association for the past two years.

Horse racing is not a gambling, gambling, or gambling industry, but an entertainment industry. Above all, he also said that we should keep our pride and take pride in our face to face. Regarding the reality that the horse industry should be distributed to the public, he said, "The horse industry should also be illuminated from an industrial perspective." It is also important to remove regulations, increase the recovery rate, and raise prize money, and once this virtuous cycle structure is established, a lot of good domestic horses will be produced, making it a world-class racehorse and a story will be made. "The horse industry is a representative industry that contributes not only to the national economy but also to the development of farming and fishing villages,

Due to prejudice against the horse industry, we met by chance, but when we saw "Seokseth Story" playing an active role in Dubai, we felt proud to face each other. It is now a great joy and fun to work in the horse industry, one of the pillars of Korea's industry, he said. "I think I did a really good job after facing each other. It's the best choice in my life." As for the secret to maintaining good grades, he said, "There are not many things we can actually face each other," and added, "Basically, I trust the assistant teachers and managers. Trust is the most important thing." The reason why he performed so well in Dubai was also emphasized, "It's not because I did it, but because of the assistant teachers and managers who did all the hard work,

We also have the unforgettable flower wagon abuse case, Blink-dol. To put it another way, how about self-portraits from the Korean horse industry, where people starve themselves to reduce weight, excessive whipping for faster runs, and locking their property in a narrow stable for the safe protection of their property. On Feb. 23, the National Assembly's Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Committee passed a plenary session of the National Assembly's bill to revise the Animal Protection Act to prevent animal abandonment and abuse after Rep. Kim Han-jung's efforts. The Korean horse industry, which has set foot on the path of advanced and globalization, should also take the lead in concrete and implementing discussions on animal protection and welfare.

The Ministry of Strategy and Finance announced on the 18th that it will absorb 1.2 trillion won (over the next five years) worth of funds, including Sports Toto profits, horse society special reserves, and poverty eradication contributions, into the budget system through the "2015 Budget."

Equestrian is a new part of Jeju Island. Among various contents that can be presented to tourists visiting Jeju such as medical services and tourism, horseback riding is a highly luxurious tour that can enhance the image of Jeju's tourism. In particular, he is knocking on the door hard as he thinks it is helpful for Jeju's economic growth and development. The two countries signed an agreement with the China Science and Technology Startup Association last year to promote the horse industry in both countries, and the two countries continue to interact with the Chinese government. In China, it is a sport of the highest class that requires at least 10 billion won in capital to ride horses. The scale is enormous, such as buying an island and riding a foreign horse or building a ranch in the size of Jeju. When the Korea-China FTA takes effect, the Korean government is preparing for and looking into the future of Jeju's horse industry.

In addition, although the society has been carrying out various projects to foster the horse industry and return social programs with special reserves, it is highly likely that the society will lose the initiative in the project as it is included in the government's budget system. The government, which has been increasing taxes by advocating for increased welfare, is raising concerns that the horse industry may leak its finances, which should be used to foster the horse industry, into the wrong place. Since the establishment of the Jeju Racing Authority in 2005, the Jeju Horse Producers Association has continued to have geographical debates over Jeju Horse and Hallama. Since he took office as the fourth chairman in February 2011, he has been agonizing over how to resolve the issue. The province's plan to foster the horse industry is to foster the Jeju horse industry in the global world.

Since the late 1980s, I have been taking my children with me to volunteer. Perhaps because of the impact, my children are still not stingy in making donations. One time, I went to volunteer with my oldest daughter to support her. After my parents passed away and I was a student living with my grandmother, but after my grandmother passed away, I had nowhere to go. Then the oldest daughter said, "Dad, I have nowhere to go, can you stay with me?" and asked me about it. We were together like that, and I came forward to find my birth mother. After searching, I found out that my mother was in Japan, and I guaranteed her and sent her to her to my birth mother in Japan with the cooperation of the school teachers.

There were no automation technicians in Korea at the time. I went to Meidensha, Japan, to learn automation technology, and as the first automation technician in Korea, I made a lot of money at that time. Automation devices were introduced in Korea at the time, but each company brought in only automation machines and drawings, so they called me after hearing my rumor. At that time, I was paid 20,000 won a day, but I went there for a short time in the evening for installation and received 30,000 won. The newspaper also received 30,000 won for a look at the rotary machine at night. I received a lot of calls from the Government Complex, but the government complex said it would take a long time to send it home after it broke down,

Working so hard in the field, I was given the role of building a government complex in 1970, and I helped. After completion, I was awarded the highest engineer's commendation at the Government Complex. I was working with a German engineer at that time, and I wanted to know advanced technology of Germany. But whenever a German worked, he locked the door and didn't teach me the technology. So I learned it while staring at the ceiling in four places. A German fought me, went back to his country, and worked with the technology I saw over my shoulder. At the time, the facility manager saw me and said I was the best. After that, the country sent me technical training to Meidensha, Japan.

Team leader Jang said that the preliminary announcement of the rating will make the weight of handicaps between registered horses predictable, and that the rating itself quantifies the difference in race horses' ability.Pukyong police officers showed keen interest in the handicap race implementation plan based on ratings, and many of them asked if they could guarantee the objectivity and professionalism of handicappers. In response, team leader Jang Byung-woon stressed that all handicappers are doing their best, saying that ratings will be given based on objective facts such as race records and distance differences between race horses. There was also a question about abolishing the upper limit of the introduction of foreign horses, which team leader Jang said is difficult to answer accurately, not in charge of, and that there will be an explanation from the developer through workshops with related organizations.

At that time, Punggeum was about 1.5 million won, but they sent it to school at their own expense. When I visited the school in Ijakdo to deliver the traditional Korean traditional music, all the students lined up on the playground and clapped their hands in gratitude. It was so touching to see students come out to the playground and applaud even though it was a cold winter. And when can someone like me who has lived only in the industrial field as an engineer speak to the students while standing at the church? A few days later, I was impressed once more. I went home and students from Ijakdo sent some 70 to 80 thank-you letters. That's when I decided to start the scholarship project in earnest.

We believe that promoting the introduction of foreign horseback riding should be done when our resources are insufficient or the values of existing resources are not in line with the conditions. There is a horse that has been recognized for its value as Hallama, and it is a pity that it will leave it alone and only leave it. The horse is not the object of restoration but of improvement. Although Australia's kangaroos have not been industrialized, they need to be compared with the effects of promoting Australia's identity and identity and creating various added values. There is a question of whether to invest tens of billions of billions of dollars to restore cultural resources or make racehorses. The problem that the horse society will transfer and manage the management of natural monuments Jeju horses from the Livestock Promotion Agency is a problem that is not timely and follows scientific controversy.

I asked him to allow me to live comfortably on the ranch where he was born after treatment without euthanasia, but he said that it was difficult to treat in reality, so I had to euthanize him. In the U.S., there was a similar case with a broken leg, and he said that he had treated him for six months, but he failed in the end. He euthanized him because he thought he was suffering only from words. Some people said that he was trying to get insurance. Some people say that they don't even get insurance if they are over the age of 5. The misunderstanding was resolved only when an explanation message was posted that "Mr. Park" is not eligible for insurance and that insurance is not available.

Let's Run Park Busan and South Gyeongsang Province also established the Busan and South Gyeongsang Province Horse Racing Scholarship in 2007 and are actively carrying out scholarship projects until now. Many of the faces voluntarily donate and contribute to society, but among them, Kwak Jong-soo, better known as the face of 'Mr. Park', stands out. I visited Kwak Jong-soo's office in Seocho-gu, Seoul for an interview on the 24th of last month. When I entered the room, I was filled with various citations and appreciation plaques. What stood out was the certificate of appreciation I received from the National Tax Service. As an entrepreneur, I felt like I had fulfilled my duty to pay sincere tax.

However, I personally don't like it when people say that the score came out well and the teamwork was good. I became an "honorary jockey" in 2015. It seems to have been benefited from Busan's first records. Many jockeys' dream is to be an "honor jockey." Watching Park Tae-jong as a jockey in Seoul, I also dreamed of becoming an "honor jockey." It is a pity that it was achieved in Busan, but another goal is to win 1,000 games. And now, there are more foreign jockeys, and before retiring, they will show their aides that Korean jockeys are never behind foreign jockeys. This year, I am going to challenge for an assistant teacher's license. The "honor jockeys" are exempt from the assistant teacher exam. Only the interview is left. I plan to change to assistant teacher after two or three more years.

Every jockey has his own know-how, but I think he knows a little more about horses because I have ridden horses longer than my juniors. I made my debut as a jockey in Seoul. I was playing in Seoul and was assigned here when the racetrack opened in Busan. The difference is that Seoul tries to maintain classical horse racing, but Busan tries to imitate a lot of advanced horse racing with an open mind. Busan horses have much better abilities than Seoul. The training pattern itself is mainly 100m to 150m longer than Seoul, so Busan horses have much stronger endurance than Seoul horses. Seoul tends to use horses for a long time, but Busan immediately sends them on vacation or replaces them if the horses seem strange. For this reason, Busan seems to perform better than Seoul.

While attempting to establish a pedigree and create a new brand, we must raise the issue of equity. If the Korean Horse Association's policy is to use horses with only eight generations of unclear pedigree among horses used as racehorses, shouldn't the Korean Horse Association disqualify horse racing horses? It humbly accepts the criticism that the horse was abused to match its height. However, claiming that some farmers' fault was done by the association or by the entire Hallama farmers is no different from the general prejudice that horse racing is a "gambling" and ignores it.Our demand is to let Hallama run the race until the demand for horseback riding expands. There is no reason to force Hallama to collapse the horse industry. Hallama's excellence has already been proven, as it is recognized for its meat quality and character as a horseman, and helps the inland horse riding industry improve and manage its management.
