Thanks to Pinot Noir, I'm standing on the podium again, and I'm happy and excited every time. I was very worried that I might catch up with him because I hit the middle of the race. It is true that he was turning six this year. The Dong-A Ilbo also thought that the race was so good in terms of experience because of bad weather, but I'm very happy that he ran so well today. I plan to take care of the horse as much as possible and think about the next race. When I was governor of Gyeonggi Province in 2014, I dressed up in special clothes and won, so I dressed up in purple again this time to cheer for Pinot Noir. It's named after my favorite wine, and I'm going to go have a cup of Pinot Noir with the people who cheered for me today.

Lee Si-dol is now staying at the Lee Si-dol Ranch after his retirement. He lives in a stable with a good environment and many fans come to see him. It seems that "The Tang Dynasty Corruption" is still popular because it achieved such splendid results when he was active. Even now, it will be difficult to break the record of winning 11 races. I am grateful that he remembers me more than just a good performance by making a lot of social donations in the name of "The Tang Dynasty Unbeatable." It is rewarding to see many fans coming to take pictures with "The Tang Dynasty Unbeatable" even now.

Recently, the composition of people visiting the horse racing park has diversified to include family customers accompanied by young children and young people who came to play with lovers or friends, in addition to horse racing fans who enjoy horse racing. I think it is currently a process of transforming into a healthy leisure sport. In order to bring about a bigger change in this process, it is also necessary to use horses so that the general public can see and enjoy horse racing rather than focusing on horse racing. The general public should be able to come and go naturally without hesitation on a daily basis.

Compared to three years ago, the level of horses, the assistant teacher's teaching skills, and the rider's ability to ride have improved considerably.

Originally, his major was in management, and in 2006, he was dispatched to Seoul National University for education. After retirement, he obtained a management instructor's license because he thought it would be helpful. After quitting, it was not easy for a management instructor to work only on a license. So, I decided to narrow down the scope further and move toward agricultural management. I have obtained qualifications for organic agricultural engineers, agricultural and fishing village development consultants, and facilitators, and am working in the agricultural field.

However, I am not disappointed because I am good at other tasks, but there is one thing that remains to be desired. It is unfortunate that the Seongdong branch, which used to be across the street from Ttukseom racetrack, was unable to extend when I was the last head of the off-the-shelf section. I felt rewarded while promoting the opening of the Jeju racetrack and the purchase of land for Jangsu Ranch, but the last Seongdong branch is really unfortunate. The Seongdong branch is a place where Ttukseom racetrack used to be a meaningful place in the past. Rather than being a horse-riding management consultant, he is a management consultant.
