Other Dongwoo Associations usually have a hall. Retired people gather to eat and play long-term baduk, and they use it as a place for communication, and I hope that there will be such a space in our Massa Association. Members are collecting special reserves for the construction of the hall. We are planning to create a place where members can communicate with each other by setting up a small single-story building on the outskirts. It is heartbreaking to see that the horse racing industry is shrinking as the 2007 Sea Story incident became a social issue and the Audit Committee imposed control over the horse racing industry. Except for the communist bloc, major countries in the world conduct horse racing, but few countries directly control horse racing or set purchase caps.

With this manpower, they have expertise that will remain even if they go abroad and run a racetrack. Often times, offers come from abroad, but they also need to find a way to utilize the retired professional manpower. The members also volunteer for rehabilitation horseback riding. I was the first vice-chairman to become the chairman. I restructured it due to difficulties in management due to a lack of practical support, but it is still in a difficult situation. Since I took office, the general meeting has been held in the Masayo auditorium, meals in the cafeteria, and the culture of looking around at my old workplace is changing to save money.

Since then, social return projects have been positively carried out for the local community. I believe that the development of the horse racing and horse racing industry and the government's contribution to national tax revenues have been dampened by the means of controlling horse racing. I believe that the purpose of establishing the Korean Horse Racing Association can be achieved only when regulations are lifted to create a place where anyone can enjoy sports comfortably. It is true that there are some very worrisome aspects when looking at the issue of over-the-counter sales offices and the recent situation. Personally, I was born in the year of the horse.

However, we have a number of prerequisites for the advancement of horse racing, and in particular, the improvement and advancement of the underdeveloped horse racing infrastructure is a key task that must be achieved as soon as possible.As is well known, in the midst of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and the rapidly changing world situation, the horse racing industry is also facing internal and external crises and upheaval. In particular, the horse racing industry around the world is in need of many changes and innovations as it enters a recession, and the Korean horse racing industry is also facing an era of transformation. The development of the horse industry begins with the horse racing industry, which is a lifeline.

Currently, the Korean horse industry is expected to grow and develop in accordance with the implementation of the Horse Industry Promotion Act. However, it is still insufficient because it has not achieved any practical effect on the field. Moreover, the recent manipulation of state affairs has deepened public distrust and misunderstanding of the horse industry, which has been a great hurt to our horse racers. However, despite unfavorable conditions, our horse racers have begun a sprint of change and innovation with the interest and support of horse racing fans. Korean horse racing has made a leap forward as a part II country since July 2016 and has advanced to the Dubai World Cup this year, proudly matching the world.

Until now, the Horse Racing Culture Newspaper has contributed greatly to the development of the Korean horse racing leisure culture industry, especially to meet various demands for information on popular sports, improve the quality of the horse racing industry, research and development of horse racing technology, and play a role in fostering the sound horse industry.In addition, I believe that by taking the initiative in establishing an advanced horse racing culture, including horse racing fans such as jockeys and assistants, it has not only contributed greatly to the development of Korea's media culture but also to the development of horse racing magazines and even professional newspapers.

Second, racing by racing media means racing and horse racing, so there is a concern that racing media's reports and materials will be focused only on horse racing. When we start talking about horses in Korean society, it is virtually right to think of horse racing first. However, horse racing is limited in people who enjoy it, and concerns about its gambling have also been raised. Therefore, we ask you to introduce more articles on horse racing that can expand the breadth of horse-goers indefinitely. From the standpoint of a horse producer, it makes sense to sell or rent a horse at a high price, but you feel more pride in meeting more people. I hope that the spread of horse-riding culture will become active through racing media.

Horses were not just livestock. They are partners who have shared history with us. They have pioneered history and expanded the field of history by running with people. Even though cars replaced horses, we humans could not erase the history we shared with horses. We could not put horses on the back of history. We continued to support horses running and were enthusiastic about horse racing, and we came to enjoy horseback riding, sharing a common sense and breathing together. I believe that racing media's footsteps in 19 years are what keeps horses from disappearing as historical relics and helps them be remembered, cheered, and breathed in the scenes of our human lives.

If there are any shortcomings, it is necessary to look back on whether there are substantial factors to match the external expansion and if there are any shortcomings, it is necessary to find ways to go far together rather than fast by strengthening the foundation. There were many twists and turns due to the innovation of horse racing at the production ranch, but many investments and efforts are being doubled, such as improving the quality of seed horses and improving the quality of racehorses, but considering the unfortunate reality that the number of Thoroughbred racehorses required at two racetracks in Korea is limited and the income of farmers does not increase, such as the loss of surplus horse processing,

For the development of the entire horse industry, including horse racing and horseback riding, it is thought that the best efforts are needed for each organization's given crane dances, and the Horse Industry Journal is also a media outlet specializing in the horse industry, so that the affected area can be found and put on the operating table, and we hope that you will be knowledgeable about your role and role as a criticism through criticism and alternatives. Congratulations once again on the anniversary of the foundation by growing and developing despite difficult conditions, and we wish the endless development of the Horse Culture Newspaper and the Horse Industry Journal with 100 years of history, just like the history of Korean horse racing in its infancy.

Active support is needed if conditions are created in the future and the association takes the lead in fostering later.Preferably, various support measures and systems should be in place for the reorganization of the auction market centered on 1-year-old horses, like in advanced countries. Inland horse owners are efficiently using the grasslands of Let's Run Farm Jangsu, and training has been possible regardless of weather conditions on the 400-meter indoor road in Let's Run Farm Jangsu, which was completed earlier this year. In addition, it is expected that the quality of inland horses will be improved and the later development will be made when the existing hillside is completed with a budget of more than 10 billion won.

The Horseracing Culture Newspaper has been faithfully playing its role as a forum for horse racing, by delivering trends in the horse racing industry without adding or subtracting any additional measures and suggestions for the development of horse racing, including the improvement of the system and the horizon of Korean horse racing, and has also made great efforts to raise social awareness about horse racing. Once again, I would like to express my gratitude to the staff and staff for their hard work, including Kim Moon-young, CEO of the Horseracing Culture Newspaper. Currently, Korean Horse Racing Authority is setting its sights on entering advanced horse racing for a new leap forward.

Despite the efforts of the horse racing community, various regulations that are not seen in other horse racing countries are pouring out. This is a matter of concern as it is weakening the horse racing community's efforts to advance horse racing. In addition, the Korean Horse Association's ambitious innovation plan for change and reform is also hampering the development of horse racing. The horse racing community should also join forces to cope with this, and the Horse Racing Culture Newspaper should take the lead in creating a healthy advanced horse racing by gathering correct public opinion and presenting a future-oriented mature vision. Congratulations on the 19th anniversary of the foundation of the Horse Racing Culture Newspaper

When businessmen are gathered to hold programs and events, it is several times more effective than targeting the general public. If these people fall into horseback riding, they can contribute to the development of horseback riding in the form of sponsorship. In the case of grassroots horse riding competitions promoted by the Korean Horse Racing Authority, the purpose is also good, so if businessmen are attracted, sponsorships may naturally appear to promote their companies. In addition, training, field trips, and programs for businessmen in places such as Let's Run Farm longevity in the Korean Horse Racing Authority or external riding courses of each local government will be very popular.

As I went around the field as an advisor so that students can take horseback riding classes safely and properly, I learned it little by little. Just as entrepreneurs contributed to vitalizing golf, entrepreneurs must lead in order to vitalize the consumption culture of horseback riding. It is regrettable that the horse industry is not interested in the CEO course of equestrian culture, which consists of such opinion leaders. It would be nice to encourage and support each other for the development of the horse industry. The Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry has always said through external business reports or business plans that programs are needed to develop and revitalize horseback riding, and that development should be promoted.

Just as entrepreneurs contributed to vitalizing golf, they can play a leading role in revitalizing horseback riding, but it is regrettable that the horse industry is not interested in them at all. As mentioned earlier, don't say negative things about other horse riding courses, but find your own characteristics and have colors. In the mobile era, it is meaningless to say to consumers who choose everything in their hands, "We are the best horse riding course." It is more important how much we provide consumer-centered services. We can't do everything, so we need to find something special. You can use your local natural environment or combine tourism and cultural factors such as local agricultural products.

However, as golf became more popular and more widespread, the golf market grew and competed. In addition, as consumers' understanding of golf has improved, the industry has now changed to be more customer-oriented than named. It would be okay if the horseback-riding industry had a little interest in it, but I don't make such an effort. These are the reasons why I first started majoring in horse industry management in the graduate school of industry. For consumers, facility operation and development, marketing, distribution, services, events, and program planning are necessary. The consumer market must be consumer-oriented to revitalize, and the current horse-riding industry is not consumer-oriented,

Related institutions should establish standards for industrial standardization, and educational institutions such as schools should actively develop educational programs to provide standardized services to consumers. Only then can the overall image of the horse industry rise and develop. When you go to the horse racing grounds, you are in a hurry to cut down other horse racing grounds, saying that they are the best and are not different. However, I cut my flesh. Rather, you should have basic facilities such as changing rooms and showers, and go one by one through a facility or a route configuration that allows you to see the accompanying people riding.

For example, in the course related to laws and regulations, they will study laws related to the horse industry, and in the course of learning history, they will learn culture and history of the entire horse industry. The class is conducted remotely through the Internet. You can learn anytime, anywhere conveniently, beyond time and space. Whether you are abroad or in a rural area, you can learn well if you have the will. If you want to learn the Korean language industry abroad, such as China and Southeast Asia, you are not constrained by the conditions of the space. Leaders who are training in the field can obtain a master's degree without coming to the classroom because the curriculum can be conducted from a distance.

Each person's expertise can be further enhanced through in-depth classes in the master's course, and after graduation, they can use what they have learned in the front line. Market analysis specialized in the 'horse industry', identification of consumer behavior, and various marketing and services will be usefully used in the field. Perhaps in the future, graduate graduate students will play a role in leading the horse industry. Of course not me. We will invite the best people in the horse industry to teach. Someone with both skills and recognition. As it is a graduate program, it will be a master's degree or higher. Some may question that there is no curriculum.

If an industry seeks to develop, it must increase the number of expert groups in that field. In that sense, opening a graduate master's course specializing in the horse industry is of great significance. The major of horse industry management encompasses not only professional physical education and daily sports but also various fields such as rehabilitation, facilities, supplies, fashion, and tourism. In addition to marketing, rehabilitation training using services and medicine will be conducted with the focus on horses. As the number of applicants for the major in horse industry management increases, the number of subjects tailored to the major will also increase. Through education, we will further systematize and specialize in the horse industry.

Professor Kim, who is more inspired by poetry as he starts learning horseback riding, is actually a marketing education expert who has nothing to do with the horse industry. An expert in a field unrelated to the horse industry, he started out on the outskirts of the horse industry, but he is faithfully playing the role of an educator to convey the charm of horse riding to corporate CEOs and opinion leaders and to establish a proper horse-riding culture. Starting in September, the graduate school will open a master's course specializing in the horse industry for the first time in Korea. Currently, bachelor's courses in the field of horse industry are opened at several universities, but this is the first and only graduate master's course.

Since expertise is needed, it takes nearly 20 years of labor to become a first-class funeral priest.Lee Ja-kyung, who is the youngest Jang Je-sa in Let's Run Park, Busan and South Gyeongsang Province, studied civil engineering at a university and worked part-time at the Let's Run Culture Empathy Center in Gwangju to find a job as Jang Je-sa. "I have no worries about the future because I have my skills," said Lee, who dropped out of her college. Lee has a dream to become the best Jang Je-sa in Korea. "If you have a good outlook and skills, there is no better job than this, you can relieve all fatigue by watching a horse with a horseshoe attached walk comfortably," Lee said.

Once regarded as a difficult, dirty, and dangerous 3D job, Jangje is recognized as a special profession in the horse industry. A growing number of young people are viewing it as a "promising job" that others have not chosen. It is a rare job in Korea, with only about 80 people currently due to its unique professional characteristics. There are 65 certified public servants of the Korean Horse Racing Authority, and many freelancers are engaged in ordinary horse riding courses unofficially. There are only five first-class Jangjeosa in Korea that can find a horse's painful legs only with the sight and sound of a horse walking. They are recognized as professionals, with annual salary reaching 100 million won. The annual salary of new Jangje is about 40 million won.

To achieve her dream, she is also focusing her efforts on increasing production and expanding into distribution markets such as meals and exporting to the U.S. market.
