Horses also run at a lower level. There is a lot of deviation from horses with good abilities. Overall, the quality of the race is deteriorating. Jeju Horse Racing is being broadcast in Seoul and Busan, and customers have complained that they can't watch it or what kind of horse racing is it? In fact, employees working at Let's Run Park Jeju have been agonizing over this issue, but there were limitations due to internal circumstances. As Hallama and Jeju Horse ran together, there were many conflicts, so they couldn't afford to systematically pour out training or energy.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.

Having shattered prejudice against female riders with her ability to overwhelm men, Kim Hye-sun is now a living history of Korean horse racing, breaking the record of the first female rider to win a championship each time she added one more win. The story of Kim Hye-sun was made public last year when a documentary about her daily life was introduced on a special live broadcast for the 42nd anniversary of her foundation by KBS. Kim Hye-sun, who shouted, "Don't set your own limits" as the title of the broadcast at the time, has been a free rider for about a year since 2013, and declared her free rider again in February 2015, continuing her strong run against the social prejudice of being a female athlete.

At a special zone meeting held in Jeju in June last year, Jeon Sung-won, 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 racehorses, as Korea's representative passenger horse from 2023. Support is needed to establish a system for the production and fostering, training, and distribution of horseback riding. Please pay attention." Kim Jin-gap, who has been in charge of Jeju-Gyeongju resource management at Let's Run Park Jeju since 2014, has also been working hard as a practitioner in charge of developing related policies and manuals, persuading farmers, and taking the lead in education. On May 7, he met with Kim Jin-gap, head of Jeju's Gyeongju Resource Management Department at Let's Run Park, and heard the progress of the systematic development of Jeju horses for Gyeongju.

Kim Hye-sun, who became the first female Korean racer to reach the 100th mark on Nov. 2, 2013, is making a new history in every race by achieving 200 wins in two years and 10 months. With the Korea Cup International Race and International Week drawing attention from domestic horse racing fans as well as many foreign horse racing circles, Kim Hye-sun was personally left with 200 wins and -3 wins. Although Kim achieved 197 wins with the victory of Ilgi Dangcheon in the 11th race on Sept. 4, it was difficult to guarantee 200 wins as she did not record a win since Aug. 20. However, she won the "Cheonji Storm" in the 7th race of the HRI Trophy on the 10th and took a step forward to 200 wins after a leading race.

When she reopens her White Horse Restaurant, which is about to start its second journey, she will also handle Mayu soap. She is also developing a way to make extract into a beverage. She still has not forgotten the principle of making good products and allowing consumers to find them. The proposition that the Korean horse industry can live only when the horse meat and subsidiary industries market grow is clear. Asked "What should we do to vitalize the horse meat market," Ahn's answer was concise. It is in line with the principles she has followed all her life, so it is reasonable. Do not put "Homa" on the list, and do not use it in restaurants. Sometimes if you say that it is delicious, even if it tastes bad and smells bad, customers never visit you again.

This is because of Sujita-san. It is clear that producing and distributing high-quality meat will bring more people to popularization with low immediate profits, and if so, more people will visit it, but the popularization of horse meat is also getting bruised in the business. The reason why the Korean horse industry is going backwards right now, that is, certain individuals closely related to "money" are making the food. It is because of his uncivilized personality that all I have to do is eat one thing well and live a good life. He is a family member, but CEO Ahn Hae-young also recommended that the reporter eat horse meat often and get acupuncture. This is because I witnessed my mother-in-law, who had stroke, completely cured in the same way.

The 'Mayon-a-horse' is continuing to develop, and the 'Mayon-a-horse' will play a role in creating the popularization of horseback riding in the future. I also have confidence in this. However, I don't know how long it will take. The final goal of the 'Mayon-a-horse' that Daemyung Group wants is to promote CSI5* to create an environment where foreign players can bring their horses directly 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 this role unselfishly.Equestrianism is now politically intertwined by a series of events. The equestrian who has worked silently so far may be the victims of the Choi Soon-sil scandal in a way.

In the future, Daemyung Group will continue to take the lead in popularizing horseback riding by combining various cultures and horseback riding that the public likes. It is true that the horseback riding industry slowed down for a while due to the Choi Soon-sil scandal. Daemyung Group also feels sorry for the students' view of horseback riding as a means to go to college. However, Daemyung is trying not only to expand its base for horseback riding, but also to keep its original intention of "Mayon-a-horse." It plans to continue developing sports and cultural encounters without being shaken by any drafts.Last year, it was held at the grass ranch and this year it was held at the Sonopelice Equestrian Club. It is true that the Sonopelice Equestrian Club was not able to organize the best environment for horses due to inconvenience such as the practice horse race last year.

Don't try it if you want to sample it with such meat," he told the provincial government. It is trying to promote horse meat, but it is trying to obscure its image. It is not important that the meat is big, but the variety is the problem. Shouldn't we offer high-quality and delicious meat to a big event where provincial residents and tourists come? When tourists visit Jeju Island, they should enjoy horse meat so that they can find it even when they return to the land. Horse meat restaurants and suppliers must look far ahead together and deliver high-quality meat so that consumers can have a good perception. It is very upsetting to hear that horse meat people who have eaten it smell. Everyone is hissing, but just as many of the horsemen in Jeju Island are vulnerable to safety issues,

The problem was that when the data was finished, they said, "I made this. Please attend," but there was something that the farmers didn't come and didn't know. However, I couldn't let it go. After creating the manual for the first time and thinking about how it could be used in the field, I decided on two policies. First, the staff visits the farm in person to show that there is such a thing, and then makes them attend the entire training. So this year, I am visiting all the farms one by one to report the news of manual production and show the video through CDs. It is not just done at the racetrack or simply to inform them, but it is also visiting and demonstrating farms that are the size of the East and West regions. It is showing the actual training. As a result, a lot of nearby farmers attended.

However, the Seogwipo City Livestock Cooperative recently provided partial support for the cost of slaughtering. Feeding for horses is also expensive and nothing is done properly. Under these circumstances, in order to save money, it is necessary to make a big profit in the distribution and restaurant sectors. By the way, she never deals with homas, or big horses for racehorses. Homa can be bought from the mainland for only 7-800,000 won. It costs about 10,000 won per kg, but if you catch 50 percent of the meat that can be used as meat, you will earn more money by selling it as food. Nevertheless, she insists on only Hallama and Jeju horses. She did not give up on the principle of "offering fresh and high-quality meat to the customer,

For the first two years, he could hardly sleep for a few days after visiting the court. The horse was a new opportunity for her. It has been 20 years since she made a living on behalf of her husband. Now, she is the CEO of boiling and distributing the largest number of head hands in the province. Now that the two are intensively breeding more than 200 Hanramas, she is now running stable management. She is producing and nurturing horses herself, distributing and selling them, and developing by-products with soap and extract. She plans to open Baekma Garden again and even open a restaurant that combines distribution. It is a representative "sixth industry person" in the horse industry.

Even though he served fresh and high-quality meat and ran the restaurant neatly, he was stubborn as if it were an oil field. When the party recommended him to try it, the customer, who reluctantly ate it, added more raw beef. And… Rumor has it that he became a regular for 10 years. Back then, most farmers were just slaughtering horses. Maintaining freshness was important, but freshness was always on the back burner because of the culture of not sharing meat, including liver and intestines. He decided that rather than selling high-quality horse meat alone, restaurants in the province would have to sell fresh meat to coexist. About five years after running the restaurant, he started distributing it to promote fresh horse meat.

It was different from what I used to eat when I was young. I thought that I would have to change something to have customers. I thought that I could use fresh meat, so I decided to do it for three years. As if she insisted on natural raw fish, she stuck to the basics. It was regrettable. The principle is that fresh and high-quality horse meat is served to customers. When horse meat comes in, it should be sold within 15 days. Since the caught meat is not fresh if it is left for a long time, the meat was sold cheaply or the meat was made and distributed to customers by making Jangjorim, which was used as a child. People around me dissuaded me from providing expensive meat, but I stuck to the principle.

It cannot be done immediately as if it takes at least five years to fear the curriculum, but the conditions for joining the racehorse in the future will begin by giving signals to production farmers and their opponents how to prepare for it.Last year, a roadmap was drawn from the mid- to long-term race resource management plan to strengthen the competitiveness of Jeju horse racing. Horses that have not been trained or evaluated at all now also enter the racehorse. It takes about 90 days from here to start training and to go to the race. We cannot keep taking this system. Step by step, some of the horses that have finished the start test are allowed in. In the next step, only horses that have passed the 100 percent start test are allowed in.

She was more agile than anyone else when she worked and her voice was firm on the phone. Ahn Hae-young, whom I met on Sep. 13 near Baekma Garden, which is currently under construction in Wahley, Jeju Island, was able to live a new life thanks to the words, which made her a living like a "haenyeo" from the horse industry. To her, words were a matter of "eating and living." Twenty years ago, her husband had to be hospitalized for a long time because of an accident. In desperate moments, she had to make a living instead of her husband. She started a sushi restaurant nearby while working at the hospital. There were quite a lot of customers because they insisted on only natural production, but my husband moved to Seoul and had to close the restaurant.

We also ask for a lot of support and encouragement in this regard, whether it is the government or the sports association. Daemyung Group, which does not spare investment in horseback riding, is playing a role as a driving force in the development of Korean horseback riding in name and reality. Kim Hong-chul, the general manager, said that the "Mayon A Horse," which began in 2015, is continuing to develop, and eventually, he wants to see foreign players bring in their horses and compete normally with domestic athletes by attracting CSI5*. Jeon Sung-won, the current head of the win-win marketing division, and Kim Jin-gap, the head of the Jeju Regional Headquarters, who was the head of the Jeju Regional Headquarters at the time of the agreement for win-win development of the horse industry, are still communicating with farmers in a responsible manner on this important issue, and are constantly developing related policies and applying them to the field.

The grass was not pretty and stylish, but the competition was held in a dedicated stadium, so the reviews of foreign players were good as it was focused and compact. Horse Auction' is a policy project of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry. In line with this, the auction part was added. It was conducted differently from the auction before. However, for the development of the horse industry, fundamental countermeasures are needed. The horse industry project has been launched with government policies for the past five years. I know that it first started between 2011 and 2012, and if 500 horse racing stadiums were built in the first five years and horse racing professionals were part of the first project, the five-year plan for horse racing development seems to be drifting away.

You may question the effectiveness of the standard manual. So, we designated a demonstration farm. Four farms with facilities and motivation were designated among the producers. I selected 24 from four farms and they are actually training them according to the manual. Jeju National University, which produced the training manual, and staff of the pilot farm meet once a month to show results and refine the manual for difficulties. After some time, the horses were produced according to the manual. They track the data and compare horses that have been trained at the pilot farm with other horses according to their age. We will track and announce how early the race will be and how good their performance will be after the race. Knowing that it will be effective in other farms, we hope that it will spread to other farms soon."
