Because the boarding list was not properly completed, there may still be people who have not been identified. To prevent a second or third incident in advance, whether it is a horse or a person, the basic registration must be done thoroughly.Mileage cards should be distributed at each equestrian center to establish a system that can track how much riding the riders actually did. The Korea Racing Authority is vigorously promoting the “Nationwide Love for Horses Campaign,” but it has not actually identified people who applied but have not come forward.The Korea Racing Authority considered introducing a Thursday betting ticket reservation system to facilitate smooth ticket purchases for racing fans who cannot visit racecourses or off-track betting facilities on race days, but it is reported that the plan was temporarily put on hold after the National Tax Service issued an official interpretation stating that taxes would be applied in principle according to the law.

Lastly, I hope that news from the producing farms can be communicated through racing media. The Halla Ma Production Association will also make efforts to inform the public through racing media about the circumstances and activities of the association and the producing farmers. 2018 marks the 20th anniversary of Racing Media, and it is also the inaugural year when Hallama, the passenger horse brand of the Hallama Breeders’ Association, will launch as a purebred horse. We hope that at the 20th anniversary event of Racing Media in 2018,

In a short period, the Korea Racing Authority has taken on numerous challenges, breaking free from its narrow confines and raising the banner of internationalization and advancement, including overseas expedition projects for Korean racehorses, Korea-Japan racehorse exchange events, the implementation of the Asia Challenge Cup, and participation in the Singapore Korea Cup international race.However, it is assessed that so far it has not shown achievements worthy of claiming a qualitative improvement in Korean racehorses. Although it won the Korea-Japan racehorse exchange away victory three years ago and also won this year’s Asia Challenge Cup, there is concern about how other racing authorities will evaluate it.

Governors Won and Nam, who signed the win-win cooperation agreement, traveled to Gasi-ri by electric vehicle and toured the Gasi-ri Cultural Center, the Pony Museum, and the Gasi-ri wind power site.At the Gasiri Cultural Center, village chief Jeong Gyeong-woon explained the village development plan linked to the village-building project and the wind power complex project, and presented a horse sculpture as a gift to commemorate the village visit.At the following luncheon meeting, Governor Nam responded in his toast, saying, “Gashiri seems to be a good example of what a future village in South Korea should look like,” adding, “In Gyeonggi Province, we are also carrying out a project called ‘Ddabok’ to create warm and blessed villages, and I will learn a great deal from this.”

Not long ago, Chairman Hyun Myung-kwan said in a conversation with staff that “entering Part II is a stepping stone toward satisfying horse racing customers,” and clarified that the ultimate goal is not to be promoted to a part, but to provide horse racing that satisfies customers.The joint support platform development project for startups in emerging overseas markets aims to revitalize the economy by creating new jobs through the combined strengths of both provinces in entrepreneurship and startup growth for pioneering emerging overseas markets. To this end, they will share network information such as exchange cities between the two provinces, co-host an overseas youth startup forum, and operate a joint overseas market development team.

Rehabilitation horseback riding needs to be promoted, but there are limitations, which is regrettable. Also, in my view, it is appropriate to introduce health insurance for therapeutic riding. Physical therapy is allowed, and it makes no sense that horseback riding rehabilitation through verbal instruction is not covered by health insurance. While preparing my master’s thesis, I learned for the first time that Italy has health insurance, but it is unfortunate that it is not yet available under our circumstances.

Second, since racing in racing media refers to horse racing and horse racing, there is a concern that the reports and materials produced by racing media may focus solely on horse racing. In Korean society today, it is practically correct to think of horse racing first when we start talking about horses. However, the number of people who enjoy horse racing is limited, and concerns about its gambling nature are also being raised. Therefore, I ask that you introduce more articles about horseback riding,

As someone who raises horses and from the perspective of the president of the Producers Association, I would like to offer my congratulations as well as some words of advice.First, in racing media, “media” means mediation or relay. I hope it can serve as a channel that effectively communicates both sides’ perspectives among people and horses, people who know horses and people who do not, people who have ridden horses and people who have not, people who bet on horse racing and people who do not.

Perhaps, like Cho Yong-pil’s song, racing media was founded at the end of the 20th century precisely because the 21st century longed for it so desperately.It was not just a simple animal. It is a companion that has shared history with us humans. We have pioneered history and expanded the sites of history by running together with people. Even though the automobile came to replace horses, we humans could not erase the history of being with horses. I could not let the horse go into the back alley of history.

However, there are still many challenges for the domestic horse industry to make a leap forward and develop.The government is making various efforts to expand the base of the horse industry, including horse breeding, promoting leisure sports, training skilled professionals, and manufacturing related products. Alongside these government efforts, the interest and cooperation of industry, local governments, and related organizations are extremely important. If we put our heads together and work hard,

As the Korea Racing Authority’s tentative suspension of the introduction of a non-track betting ticket reservation system has been announced, the voices of disappointed horse racing fans are growing louder.The Korea Racing Authority’s introduction of a betting ticket reservation system is intended to improve purchasing convenience for horse racing fans. The Korea Racing Authority introduced a betting ticket reservation system on May 18, 2007. At the time, reservations became available not only through the internet and ARS but also via mobile devices and unmanned ticket vending machines, but the races available for reservation were limited to Bukyeong races on Fridays, and Seomul Racecourse Park races on Saturdays and Sundays, while cross-race reservations were not offered.

The Korea Racing Authority recently officially requested the National Tax Service to issue an official interpretation regarding the introduction of a “book rental reservation system.” This is to make it more convenient for horse racing fans to purchase betting tickets in advance for races scheduled on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, when the races are not held on Thursdays.The problematic part was the tax section. A 2,000 won admission fee is charged upon entering the racetrack and off-track betting locations. Among them are a 1,300 won individual consumption tax and a 300 won education tax, so as a horse racing fan, I pay a 1,300 won tax.The Korea Racing Authority requested the National Tax Service to issue an official interpretation on whether admission fees should be charged even when actual horse racing does not take place and people simply visit racecourses and off-track betting centers to purchase betting tickets.

The content and fields conveyed during that time are likely diverse and boundless. I am confident that these things, together, are fully serving as a compass in shaping Korea’s language culture and leading the language industry.It is said that our country's horse industry is currently facing various difficulties. The horse racing industry has not been loved by the public, and equestrianism is experiencing a spread of negative perceptions due to recent developments. I believe that racing media needs to play a role in wisely overcoming this reality

In advanced horse industry countries, media related to the horse industry are deeply loved by the public. I expect that racing media will soon stand at the center of that role in our country as well.The Korean Horse Trainers Association also recognizes the importance of horse training and will continue to make every effort to integrate advanced training techniques used in riding horses and racehorses. To achieve this, we will build the Korean Horse Trainers Association into a continuously growing organization by sharing training-related information with racing media and receiving their advice.

Although there have been many difficulties at the production farms due to the horse racing innovation plan, they are making efforts to keep pace accordingly by increasing investments and efforts in improving stallions and improving the quality of racehorses. However, considering the unfortunate reality that the number of Thoroughbred racehorses required at the two racecourses in Korea is limited and farmers’ income does not increase due to losses from surplus horses, multifaceted efforts are urgently needed to expand the horse racing industry in the long term,

Korea’s horse industry, and many changes and developments have continued, including the implementation of the Five-Year Plan for Horse Industry Development and the designation of horse industry special zones. The Second Five-Year Plan is also being implemented, but whether it has enough substance to match its outward expansion, and whether it has been moving forward blindly, is something that needs to be reflected on by now. If there are shortcomings, they should be sufficiently addressed, and the foundation should be strengthened so that,

He also promoted a nationwide horse-riding campaign, encouraged executives to ride horses, and gathered information on the status of riding centers across the country, thereby spreading a nationwide horse-riding boom. I hope the policy continues to be inherited and developed, but there is some regret that its form has since changed or been altered.The Korea Racing Authority should run a horseback riding healing center and a program that can provide therapeutic treatment through horses for people with disabilities.

Since then, projects such as social return initiatives for the local community have been carried out positively.I think that for the past ten years or so, the focus has been solely on finding ways to control horse racing, which has been stifling the development of the horse racing and horse industry as well as the government’s contribution to national tax revenue. I believe that only by lifting regulations and creating an environment where anyone can comfortably enjoy sports can the horse racing and horse industries develop,

Proud Citizen Award from the Seoul Metropolitan Government. In 2009, he actually oversaw the launch of Korea’s first horse quarantine council, and by establishing a horse registration office, he made a major contribution to establishing a horse registration system not only for racehorses but also for riding horses and breeding horses.

With the advent of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, a wide range of diverse keywords such as artificial intelligence and big data are emerging, and we expect new value to be created and further developed. The horse industry has long been a field where data is extremely important. With new information and communication technologies and data integrated, it will become a pillar of the intelligent information society, and I have no doubt that Mal Industry Journal will stand at the center of that role.
