During the 2014 Gyeonggi Province Governor's Cup, I dressed up in special clothes and won, so I dressed up in purple again this time to cheer for Pinot Noir. This horse is named after my favorite wine, and I should go for a cup of Pinot Noir with the people who cheered for me today. I didn't expect much, but I think I got a good result because I had consistently experienced racing. The Dong-A Ilbo had a short distance, so I was worried that I might be catching up. I saw that this race has strength because it is a long distance of 2,000M, and I even expected to win the championship. I am happy to win for two consecutive games, and I hope it has brought a little joy to the horse racing fans. Due to the slow initial flow, I decided that the jockey might be able to take the lead and displayed a moving development.

When Baekma Restaurant reopens, they plan to resume carrying horse oil soap. They are also developing a method to convert the extract into a beverage.They have not forgotten their principle of creating quality products so that consumers will seek them out.It is clear that the equine industry must grow for the horse meat and related industries to thrive.When asked, What should be done to revitalize the horse meat market?, Ahn's answer was concise. It's understandable, as it aligns with the principles she has upheld throughout her life.

Because I had witnessed my mother-in-law, who had a stroke, recover completely in the same way. It was the elders who personally experienced the benefits of horse meat, rehmannia, and extract for stroke and osteoporosis. Perhaps for that reason, she is also very interested in businesses that utilize byproducts such as horse oil cosmetics and soap. A few years ago, I refined my own oil and made horsehair soap, and I passed on the technique to a company. I’ve tried Japanese products,

It is intended to revive the spirit that participation in horse racing betting is for donations. When categorizing the types of social contribution projects, there are three stages: one stage where donations are limited, two stages where volunteering is made along with donations, and three stages: donation and volunteer participation and social value creation. Our Let's Run Foundation is currently in the process of transitioning to the third stage. Based on the Korean Horse Association and related organizations, the Let's Run Foundation will continue its active social contribution program using horses and through talent donation by horse officials. A "better tomorrow with horses" is never a dream. The Let's Run Foundation thinks that a world where words make all people happy is tomorrow. Personally, I think I am extremely lucky to have the opportunity to work as the secretary-general.

Some even receive it from mainland restaurants, claiming it is 'Jeju-grown horse meat.' It's because of a cost-benefit analysis. Producing and distributing high-quality meat may bring in less immediate profit, but it brings us one step closer to popularizing it through taste, and it is certain that more people will seek it; however, the popularization of horse meat is only bruised by commercialism. The reason our horse industry is going backward now is that certain individuals closely tied to money are creating a quagmire.

Kim Jong-kook, head of the Korea Racing Authority, graduated from the University of Seoul Department of Public Administration, received a master's degree from the University of Seoul Business School, and is currently studying for a doctorate in sports and cultural welfare policy at the Seoul National University of Science and Technology. Thanks to Pinnoir, I'm on the podium again, and I feel happy and excited every time. I was very worried that I would catch up because I hit the middle of the race. It is true that he was turning six this year. The Dong-A Ilbo thought the race was over in an advantageous way in terms of experience because of bad weather, but I am very happy that he ran so well today. I plan to manage the horse as much as possible and think about the next race.

Promoting horse meatBut it is something that blurs the image. It's not the size of the meat that matters, but the breed.Shouldn't they serve high quality, delicious meat at such a major event for residents and tourists.Tourists might not seek out horse meat again after returning to the mainland unless they taste it deliciously when they visit Jeju. Consumers will develop a positive perception only if the horse meat restaurants, suppliers, and sellers all look ahead and provide high-quality meat. It really upsets me when people who have eaten horse meat say it smells.

Given the situation, it would be normal for the distribution and restaurant sectors to make a big profit in order to save money. However, she never treats horses meaning racehorses as 'big horses.' Inland, a horse mackerel can be bought in Jeju for 700,000 to 800,000 won. It costs about 10,000 won per kilogram, so even if you use only 50% of the amount for meat, that's 2 million won; and if you further process and sell it as food, the profit is even greater. Even so, he insists on having only a Halla horse and a Jeju horse. It was because they never gave up on their original motivation for opening the restaurant

Males that are castrated and over 2 years old are good for finishing.They bred a horse imported from China with a Shahrama, and it is as large as the Belgian,with excellent marbling even in old age.It is the most suitable horse for fattening.Jeju horses have good marbling and a savory flavor,but their somewhat tough texture is a drawback.If you run to Gyeongju, there's no marbling.Even among the same yamamaro,the one with less racehorse blood is of better quality. Breedings that combine Jeju horses and traditional horses tend to have better marbling.

During the first one or two years, I would go to the auction and then be unable to sleep or eat for days.For her,speaking was a new opportunity.It has already been over 20 years since she stepped up to support the family in place of her husband. It has now become a proud 'representative'of the province,leading in the number of pigs it fattens and distributes.Now, having focused on fattening about 200 Hanlama horses,it is operating with stability.They produce,breed,distribute,and sell the horses themselves, while developing by-products into soap and extracts.

In fact, Melbourne is a horse racing area recognized by the whole area, so I am proud of it, and I am grateful that the results follow as much as I have worked hard. I don't think you should be complacent in order to grow. I had no fear in my decision because I thought that gaining new experiences in various places was the way to grow me. Also, I heard that the Korean horse racing market is growing. I think it is a good opportunity because I think there are many things to learn and experience in growing horse racing.Basically, the beginning is very fierce in Korea. In the end, this is also due to the main difference, but in the case of Australia, since it is mainly grass, it is a method of following the horse as much as possible to build up power in the beginning and then sprinting at the last minute.

He believed that local restaurants should sell fresh meat rather than him selling only high-quality horse meat for mutual success. About five years after opening the restaurant, they began distribution to promote the fresh horse meat. Transportation, slaughtering, and other expenses at the auction were 'provided free of charge' to the restaurants, and only the cost of the meat was shared.I was subjected to a tax audit, and they fined me for recording sales of 10 million won per word or two. They struggled to revitalize the horse meat industry,

Fresh yuk sashimi was also provided free of charge to customers. When the kitchen managers who handled cattle arrived, they passed on their know-how, saying,Just do as I do. All the yukhoe, yukhoe sashimi, and course meals served in the province now began with her hands.There was resistance. One customer, who had a strong aversion to horse meat, was a nuisance from the moment they entered the restaurant, saying,I don’t eat this kind of meat.” Even after serving fresh, high-quality meat and running the restaurant cleanly, they were stubborn

Recruitment and promotion of journalists for Racing Media is a step in line with the expansion of its business ahead of the online news partnership between Naver and Kakao, following the signing of an agreement with KBSN in February on horse industry broadcast planning.

Adults used to give horse meat even when they had a cold or were feeling unwell. I rented a restaurant and did about two months of market research. By the way I've been to a few places, but they had bad smells, served black meat, and the raw beef wasn't fresh. It tasted different from what I ate as a child. I felt that it had to be different for customers to come. I decided to try it for three years, thinking I could use fresh meat.Just as she insisted on using wild-caught sashimi, she stayed true to the basics. It was almost foolish. The principle is to serve fresh, high-quality horse meat to customers.

The existence of the Let's Run Foundation itself is possible because of customers of horse racing. I thought that horse racing customers should come to the forefront in all fields. The Let's Run Foundation also wants to make it clear that the donation agent is the horse racing customer. Korean horse racing has undergone tremendous changes in a short period of time in terms of culture, and is still changing to a positive aspect. As the customer level has been upgraded, it is now necessary to inform horse racing customers as the subject who provides financial resources for social contribution projects, not gamblers. Since the Korean Horse Association, which is the parent company, is a public enterprise, the Let's Run Foundation's policy is set by the national government and the mission of the Korean Horse Association. However, the first horse racing in Korea was born to raise funds to encourage horse racing, and participants participated in horse racing to donate.

While the facilities, infrastructure, and curriculum are top-notch, I believe the quality of instruction has yet to improve in proportion to these outward developments. Since being designated as a Meister High School, students’ levels have risen, but I feel concerned that they are struggling during theory classes because practical lessons are being taught alongside them. This is also why we have increased the emphasis on basic physical fitness during the interview process for student selection starting this year.
