Since 2009, rehabilitation horseback riding has attracted much attention from the general public as well as representatives of horse riding courses, parents of the disabled, and even until recently. Contrary to such interest, however, rehabilitation horseback riding in Korea is still in its infancy. The Korean Horse Racing Authority has formed a task force in June this year to run the event on a trial basis, and has been making moves to revitalize rehabilitation horseback riding. The organization is pushing to open the horse riding center with the aim of making a standard model and distributing it to private horseback riding courses. Kwon Jin-hyeon, who served as the chief coach of the horse riding center this time, is an advanced driver certified by the International Association for Rehabilitation Horses (PATH) and had operated the horse riding center in the U.S. until six months ago. The organization expects that Kwon Jin-hyeon's appointment will set guidelines for Korean rehabilitation horseback riding.

The Korea Racing Authority expects to record sales of 29.4 billion won in broadcasting rights by the end of September this year due to the export of Singapore's live race this year, with a total of 42 billion won in sales this year as the number of export destinations expands. It also said that a total of 60 billion won in sales is expected in 2016, when the actual race is exported in earnest. Overseas exports of the live race are expected to have the effect of minimizing the increase in costs such as racing prize money, expanding profits and diversifying risks, and simultaneously enhancing the international status of Korean horse racing and the Korean horse industry by exporting Korean horse racing to Europe, the birthplace of horse racing. Meanwhile, the Korea Racing Authority signed an agency contract for doping tests in Macau in September, recording an additional 200 million won in annual sales. An official of the Korea Racing Authority said, "We will continue to strive to develop overseas markets

The Korea Racing Authority exported two domestic horses to Malaysia in 2011 for the first time in Korea. At that time, K-pop, the first export, proved the possibility of exporting Korean racehorses by doing well, winning two consecutive games despite numerous concerns. Although it is regrettable that it has not yet achieved satisfactory results after opening the way to export domestic horses, it is important that the domestic racehorses production industry, which has already achieved quantitative growth in the late 1990s, can continue to grow quantitatively as well as qualitative production through a breakthrough in exports. Among the seven industries in Korea's legal gambling industry (rookwon, Sports Toto, horse racing, bicycle racing, casino, and small fighting), horse racing is the only one that has succeeded in exporting abroad. Sales are soaring year by year, and Sports Toto, which is pointed out as a hotbed for private gambling, is in contrast to the massive outflow of foreign currency as 65% of its

In order to block illegal racing caused by banned substances, Korea began to secure experts in drug testing in 1976 and completed the current inspection system (pre-, post-, and pre-voting inspection) in 1987. Currently, there are separate departments in charge of doping tests in Let's Run Park Seoul, Pukyong, and Jeju, and they play the role of the spearhead of ensuring fairness in horse racing by conducting thorough doping tests on all racehorses on every race day. The Korea Racing Authority's acting doping test for overseas races confirmed the possibility of exporting the system that Korea Racing Authority has established to foreign countries. The final step that the Korean horse racing industry aims to pursue is to become a racehorse producer that produces the world's best horses. Although the Korean horse racing industry is about to be promoted to Part II, it feels that it still has a long way to go on its quality. It is necessary to make constant efforts to improve the quality of horse racing,

Overseas export of the actual race is expected to have the effect of enhancing the international status of Korean horse racing and the Korean horse racing industry by minimizing the increase in costs such as prize money, expanding profits and dispersing risks, and exporting Korean horse racing to Europe, the birthplace of horse racing. An official from the Korea Racing Authority said, "We will continue to make efforts to develop overseas markets so that we can achieve the goal of 100 billion won in overseas sales, which can replace two over-the-counter sales centers in 2020. Exports from outside the race are also taking place. In September, Korea Racing Authority's fairness and technology for fair racing were recognized internationally. The Korea Racing Authority's doping inspection office (chief Han Kwan-seok) has been in charge of testing samples for Macau horse racing and jockey drugs for one year, recording an additional 200 million won in annual sales. Horse racing, which is a living organism, requires

Representative Jin asked the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency's Intelligent Crime Investigation Unit to investigate the case, saying, "The Racing Authority embezzled and used public funds while attempting to manipulate public opinion with public funds, and committed additional embezzlement by depositing excessive expenses and diverting them into cash." Regarding the subject and specific allegations, the police replied, "We cannot reveal them because we are investigating." In the research conducted so far, the control group that used only artificial joint fluid amounted to 9.02 million won, while the application group that used artificial joint fluid and stem cells amounted to 17 million won. In addition, the rehabilitation period was shortened from 208 days to 192 days on average, and the rate of return to Gyeongju increased from 80% to 91%. Super Dream, which actually received homogeneous treatment for bone fracture, recorded a good record, ranking first in Gyeongju even after receiving treatment.

The French Gallup is delivering races to France and eight European countries (Germany, Austria, Belgium, Spain, Luxembourg, New Caledonia, Switzerland and Monaco). It also signed a contract with EQ SPORT, a joint-owned publisher of three Malaysian racetracks, on Nov. 11 and agreed to export a total of 81 races on a trial basis for the two months of this year. The Korea Racing Authority (KRA) expects to record sales of 29.4 billion won in broadcasting rights by the end of September this year due to Singapore's live race exports, with a total of 42 billion won expected this year as the number of export destinations has expanded. It also said that a total of 60 billion won in sales is expected in 2016, when the actual race exports are in full swing. The export of the live race takes the form of receiving a certain portion of the local betting amount as royalty for the transmission of the live race in Korea. When it started exporting live race, the KRA planned to expand the live race in 2017, and thanks to the

Lawmaker Jin claimed, "The Horse Racing Association promised Park that if he conducts a pro-choice activity, he will give 1,000 won for each signature in favor and the right to operate the store in the video racing center." The memo presented by lawmaker Jin that Park wrote at the time at the scene where he met with the horse racing staff shows words such as "1,000 won per resident's signature" and "Story of the store." Lawmaker Jin also said, "Park received 2.1 million won from the Horse Racing Association after receiving signatures in favor of 2,100 local residents, and paid a total of 2.1 million won in a way that would cost more than the actual number produced."

Korea Racing Authority has recently signed a live race export contract with eight EU countries including France and Malaysia, which is gaining momentum. The Korea Racing Authority (KRA) has secured not only live race export, but also doping inspectors, which are absolutely necessary to ensure fairness in horse racing, and overseas export of Korean racehorses, proving that Korean racing is no longer a frog in a well but is confidently competing with world racing. First of all, Korean racing will be available in 10 countries around the world starting in November. The KRA said it recently signed a live race export contract with eight EU countries including France and Malaysia. The deal has led the KRA to export Korean racing to a total of 10 countries including Singapore, which has been exporting its existing racing competitions. The export contract was signed on October 23 by Gallup France (under the Agriculture Ministry), which will be exporting a total of two races including the Grand Prix on a trial basis

In Korea, the application of stem cells to animals, including horses, is still insignificant. A three-year plan is being established by 2017 and the goal is to prove its effectiveness. Currently, in order to provide it cheaply to each other, we do not charge millions of won for stem cell cultivation, and we only charge one procedure. In particular, we do not think of stem cells as urgent because quality is the most important. This is because if there is contamination during cultivation and the contaminated culture enters the injured area, it can grow the disease further. How good the quality of the stem cells in 1 mm is more important than anything else. The ultimate goal is to enable stem cells to be commercially linked.

On the 23rd, 600 executives and employees attended the convention hall on the 6th floor of the Seoul Horse Racing Park viewing stand to share their achievements this year and pledge to innovate management in 2016 The Korea Horse Racing Association (Chairman Wise Kwan) held the "Management Strategy Meeting in the Second Half of 2015" at the convention hall on the 6th floor of Luckyville, Seoul, on the 23rd. About 600 people, including executives and employees of the Korea Horse Racing Association, participated in the meeting, sharing 2015 innovation cases by headquarters such as "Globalization of Horse Racing," "Advancement of Marketing," and "Management Innovation," and 2016 major visions such as "Let's Run Park Seoul Theme Park Creation," "Internationalization of Horse Racing Products," and "Global Marketing." It was the first attempt in February this year that the Korea Horse Racing Association had all employees attend a management strategy meeting, which was usually attended by only executives,

The Horse Racing Management Union and the Korean Association of Teachers' Associations have been signing wage and collective bargaining every two years since 2002, but the collective agreement was cut off in May. The union claims that the Korean Association of Teachers' Association unilaterally notified them of the termination of the collective agreement. When the mediation between the two sides failed, the union decided to fight with the approval of 96 out of 103 members and went on a general strike on November 3. The Jeju branch of the management union has been picketing in front of the main gate of the Jeju Horse Racing Park on the morning of the horse racing day since it decided to go on a general strike.

Although the line is clearly drawn under the name of related organizations, our horse racing managers were willing to participate in increasing horse racing sales. 27.9% of the accident rate, including 22% horse racing managers and 7.9% of riders at Jeju Racecourse, is the process and the result is that. Everyone knows that the essence of racing is a defeat by the championship. Our workers think that it is a legitimate argument to demand wages for the products produced, and that the main job is to produce racehorses. Incentives are incentives that the existing labor and management have signed collective agreements, implemented them, and maintained smooth and developmental labor-management relations. We hope that labor and management will make positive efforts to resolve the situation as soon as possible, and that the implementation body, the horse racing society, will approach the problem-solving attitude in a responsible manner to achieve true development of the horse racing industry.

The Jeju branch of the National Horse Racing Authority Labor Union (Chairman Kang Tae-jong) held a resolution meeting for the victory of the general strike in front of the sculpture of Jeju City Hall at 11 a.m. on the 2nd and called for sincere negotiations by the Association of Teachers' Association. At the rally, which brought together more than 100 members, including Kang Tae-jong, chairman of the emergency committee, and officials from the Federation of Korean Trade Unions, the horse racing coach's union said, "The horse racing assistant teachers' association unilaterally notified the termination of the collective agreement and demanded only individual negotiations," adding that if negotiations are made individually in the future, employment insecurity and working conditions of horse racing workers, will worsen.

He also warned, "If the employer gives up the plot to exterminate the union and does not engage in sincere negotiations after today, the Federation of Korean Trade Unions will make it clear once again that it will mobilize all methods in solidarity with its affiliated labor unions and punish them with a full-scale solidarity struggle." The Horse Racing Association, designated as the only agency in charge of fostering the horse industry in Korea, has first stepped up to revitalize national horse riding to stabilize the development of the domestic horse industry, especially pushing to lay the foundation for the production of passenger horses, which had never been done before.

When I hear about the victory, I always give credit to the hawk family for their hard work, but I'd like to hear the specific bragging of the hawk managers. I heard that the division of labor is very systematically divided. In fact, there are often cases where things in our hawk are not easy, so we don't endure it for a long time. Considering the number of new people who come in and go out, there are a total of 16 family members who are working together. Since there is no management system of the association in Busan like Seoul, each hawk has to handle the administrative part. Kim Jin-woo, manager of our hawk, is in charge of that. He is a unique person who uses people, registers for participation, writes a new horse list, writes contracts, and even applies for insurance and equipment. He can be said to be the head of our hawk. In the case of Cho Ho-Sung and Kim Wook, the assistant coach approval manager, they are the left and right arms of our hawk. He is carrying out a key mission related to horses as

It is true that I participated in the competition with half-expectation and half-worried. I always had high expectations at every Breeders' Cup, but didn't I finish third last year and second the year before? Horse racing didn't mean that just because I did my best, but it was a combination of the conditions of the horse racing on the day and the opponent's strength, and I'm glad that it led to good results. As the open race will continue to be added in the future, I think it's not the end, but the part that we need to keep running. I have peaked as an assistant teacher, including the king of multiple victories and breaking records every year, and I wonder how you feel. At awards ceremonies, it is difficult to read emotions because you don't have many facial expressions. I won as an assistant teacher, so how wouldn't you be happy? I just wonder if it's because other people say yes. I tend to control my emotions as much as possible at award ceremonies. There are often people who feel uncomfortable about me

The opening of foreigners to foreigners was initially planned to be gradually expanded to 20 people next year and 25 people in 2017. The Seoul Horse Racing Association opposed this, but the foreign horseshoe recruited this year is not actively engaged in activities due to a lack of understanding of Korean horse racing and poor horse racing environment compared to foreign countries. They agreed to gradually expand the number of foreign horseshoppers but maintain the maximum 10% level after the opening of Yeongcheon Horse Racing Center. Meanwhile, it was agreed that the distribution rate of next year's ranking prize money will be raised from 55% to 56%, and raised to 57% in 2017. The Korean Horse Racing Association has been pushing for a second phase of horse racing innovation measures to create synergy with the first phase of horse racing innovation measures since the first half of this year. In early April, the Horse Racing Association delivered the "Second Phase of the Horse Racing Innovation Plan"

Through the consultation, it was agreed that the number of restricted races at Pukyong Racecourse will be increased in 2016, one of the restricted races at Pukyong Racecourse in 2017 and one of the Grade races in Seoul in 2018. This is because the Seoul Horse Racing Association has argued that it is impossible to expand any more open races until Seoul's massage and assistant facilities are improved and competitiveness is improved. Starting next year, some of the walls in the area between Seoul and Pukyongyang will be broken down. First of all, the racehorse trade between Seoul and Pukyong, which took effect this year, will be temporarily suspended from next year, and the company will allow cross-entry to one or two horses per horse race next year only. However, in order to prevent the supply and demand imbalance between racetracks, the size of consignment should be considered equal to each other, but the maximum range should not be exceeded by 20%. As for the method of paying the prize money,

The abolition of the foreign horse racing purchase limit is because the Seoul Horse Racing Association argued that it is necessary to verify the purchase limit for a certain period of time as the purchase limit has been raised to $50,000 this year, and that it is impossible to abolish or raise the price limit further until the competitiveness of domestic horses is secured. The Seoul Horse Racing Association strongly opposed the plan to introduce a fixed rate system for horse racing, which has not yet reached a full agreement, saying that the combined race between the first and second grades of mountain racing has shown poor performance as feared, revealing the competitiveness of domestic horses. Regarding the introduction of a fixed rate system for horse racing prize money, which has not yet been fully agreed upon, the Seoul Horse Racing Association is in a position to discuss the change of the fixed rate system after realizing the current amount of horse racing prize money is set lower than the actual

Starting next year, cross-entering between Seoul and Pukyong will be allowed for Shinma only, and one race in the open race is expected to increase at Pukyong Horse Park. The Seoul Horse Racing Association, which has been negotiating over the prize money for horse racing until recently ahead of the implementation of horse racing in 2016, said it has concluded consultations with the Horse Racing Association on the institutional areas excluding prize money for horse racing in its 2016 horse racing innovation plan. In a notice sent to members facing each other, the Seoul Horse Racing Association said it has improved through consultations on the eight innovative tasks proposed by the Horse Racing Association, including the expansion of the implementation scale of open racing, the allowance of cross-entering between Seoul and Pukyong, the expansion of the opening ranking and the distribution rate of prize money to foreigners. However, it was agreed that the abolition of the purchase cap on foreign horses and the

It eliminates the benefit of –4 to mares when giving initial ratings. Currently, there are 4 points fewer than male and female horses, so the number of mares in the upper and middle grades compared to male and female horses is significantly insufficient. Eventually, this phenomenon caused a problem in that the preference for mares decreased as the chances of participating in high-grade prize races decreased. However, in the case of mares, the plan is to reduce the burden weight by 1.5kg in actual racing. On the other hand, only for this year's first grade, the burden weight will be re-applied if the maximum weight horse is not displayed to the entire grade. For smooth promotion, it is possible to deduct if the winning horse is sluggish for two consecutive times in the 1st and 2nd grades, and in the case of winning horse, it is possible to deduct if it is sluggish for two consecutive times. Next year, the types of special fixed weights will be expanded. Currently, only one differential weight by gender and

Starting next year, races in the segmentation of the rating will be expanded, and the race will be increased to enhance the sense of racing, judging that the conditions for racing in the segmentation of the rating section, which has a good sense of racing, will mature due to the reduction of the rating section. Since the introduction of this year's rating, the upper-grade race has not been established due to a lack of the number of participants, and the planned race prize money has been left behind as it has been replaced by lower-grade races, so the reason for the payment of all the planned race prize money through the operation of overlapping sections is included next year. The standard for the increase in the maximum rating of the winning horse will also be lowered. Currently, domestic horses will be given a maximum of +20 and foreign horses will be given a maximum of +24, but it will be adjusted to +15 and +17, respectively. In addition, the additional increase in the rating of foreign-born winning

If this year's Asian Challenge Cup was a half-fledged international race involving only Asian countries such as Japan and Singapore, the Korea Cup, which will be newly established next year, is expected to be an international race in name and reality. Japan, Singapore and Dubai, where quarantine inspections between the two countries have been concluded, are considered natural to participate as Korean racehorses have also held away races. Besides, the Korean Racing Authority is considering inviting Hong Kong, the U.S. and European countries. To this end, an international racing TF team will be formed to push for a successful hosting of the Korea Cup. However, it is expected to be a big variable as the government has to quickly complete quarantine inspections in order for horses from countries that have not yet been quarantined between countries to participate. The Korea Racing Authority plans to form a "Korea Cup Racing Authority" to select horses for the implementation of the Korea Cup. Increasing the sense

As a first step, the Korean Horse Association imported 25 horses of passenger seams from Germany, the strongest country in horseback riding, in January this year. In order to maximize the introduction effect, all the seams imported into Korea were selected as "pregnant horse" horses, and between March and June, they gave birth to 25 horses in good health. Haflinger, who is known to be optimal for youth horseback riding with his mild personality, has 18 horses, the representative brand of the German Warmblood Sports Horse, 4 horses of Hanover, and 3 horses of Holsteiner, making it possible to distribute horseback riding to all ages. The 25 horses that have completed their childbirth will be used only to produce professional horseback riding in Korea in the future. The seed mares were distributed to 11 general farmers who applied to participate in the Korean Horse Association's "Professional Horse Racing Pilot Production Project" last year and will carry out full-fledged production activities.
