Rehabilitation equine therapy” refers to the practice of using horses as animal-assisted therapy to treat mental and psychological disorders as well as physical disabilities. It is generally known to stimulate interest through interaction with large animals such as horses, and to help improve confidence and judgment. It also helps improve concentration. Because it involves interacting with speech while engaging in physical exercise, it is effective not only for stress relief but also for reducing negative emotions,

Therefore, the horse industry must be linked to the income of local farmers. What local farmers feel firsthand is more important than anything else. Revitalizing the local economy and creating jobs are also important.To ensure the smooth opening of Yeongcheon Race Park, where related construction and projects are currently underway, we will work closely with the Korea Racing Authority (KRA) and Gyeongsangbuk-do to create a world-class, high-quality park.It also aims to build a prosperous Yeongcheon based on the horse industry by establishing infrastructure for horse racing and horseback riding—often called the crown jewel of the horse industry—as well as training, auctions, and specialized personnel.

Aside from treatments for the current symptoms, there is no single medication for this condition, but it is very important to receive comprehensive, systematic, and specialized care for the various symptoms. It is characterized by decreased muscle tone and excessive appetite, obesity and short stature, hypogonadism, and learning and behavioral disorders in infancy. Due to low back extension, the muscles are weak, scoliosis is likely to develop, and because appetite cannot be properly regulated

Because they are living intermediary animals, I am convinced they are more helpful than machines.I hope people don’t see horseback riding as just a noble sport. I hope people will think of horseback riding as something that sick children, and all children, can enjoy. Due to several recent incidents, the image of horses and equestrian activities has been deteriorating, but I hope government agencies and organizations promoting the development of the horse industry will continue to provide steady support and organize well.

In response, a Korea Racing Authority official said, “Chairman Hyun’s absence from the joint agreement ceremony was due to internal scheduling reasons,” adding, “Chairman Hyun stated that he needs time to make a judgment on the working-level report on the horse training complex development project, so the decision is currently pending.” In addition, “there are matters that need to be finalized internally, such as reviewing our investment capacity and the business environment, and these are currently under review; we have not decided to abandon the project.” He stated, “Once an internal decision is made, we plan to hold talks with Gyeonggi Province soon.”

However, it is true that there is a significant shortage, because sick children are not only in Gyeonggi Province but are found throughout the country.In reality, there are hardly any suitable places for therapeutic horseback riding. I’ve heard that the Korea Racing Authority runs support programs, but it’s not easy to find information, and as far as I know, there aren’t many.Through this therapeutic riding program conducted at Samsung Seoul Hospital, I encountered a horse for the first time.

People who live in Seoul have fewer opportunities to come across horses. If you want to go horseback riding, you have to go to Gyeonggi Province or the outskirts. And there are far fewer places for therapeutic horseback riding than one might think. There are only a few. There are a few places. Even just at Samsung Seoul Hospital, it takes more than an hour.The financial burden outside of working hours cannot be ignored either. Thanks to the clinical trial, I did get to experience therapeutic riding,

Maybe because of that, my child had said since they were little that they wanted to go horseback riding, and they didn’t seem afraid even when riding a real living horse. The reason I became more actively involved when I received an offer from Samsung Seoul Hospital to participate in therapeutic riding was that my child was not afraid of it and enjoyed it.It started in July this year. It was conducted over 15 weeks, twice a week for a total of 30 sessions.

According to the current Korean horse racing system, there is no particular correlation between the owner and the trainer. I can't do the encounter and the trainer at the same time. At present, owners entrust their horses to trainers or handlers for training, but in the future, I believe that, as in other countries, owners should carry out basic taming and training of their horses at their own farm or training center.I also think that if the owner understands the characteristics of their own words, they can choose a trainer and handler that suit those words.

Over the past ten years, the results have always ranked within the top 10 in both the wins and prize money categories. I challenged the major and special races countless times, but third place was my best result. Most horse owners, no matter how good their horses are in regular races, would probably wish at least to stand on the podium once.After failing and being crushed dozens of times more myself, I came to the realization that I was not meant to be with them, and that I should give up the path of a master and focus on business instead.

From the early days of opening, LetsRun Park Busan-Gyeongnam began building relationships with horses through direct interaction.Knowing that a horse-related certification system was being implemented under the Horse Industry Promotion Act, I started trying from the first attempt, but I kept failing at the very end.Actually, I was going to give up on the exam this time. It’s embarrassing that they keep failing at the end, and people in the horse racing industry even wondered why a horse owner is taking a trainer’s exam.

The Players’ Association does not intend to conduct any further interviews.The perception that equestrianism is a noble sport has greatly diminished, but it is unfortunate that the Choi Soon-sil scandal has cast a negative light on equestrianism and led to its denigration. Not only equestrian sports, but all sports disciplines and the sports industry as a whole are bound to regress. I hope that not only young equestrian athletes but also many others will have more opportunities to experience horseback riding.

You could say that 1.5 billion is a small amount, but if that is paid every year, the company would have to be quite large. The Korea Racing Authority says it’s a company related to horses, but. Samsung and Hanwha were supported because the previous chairman enjoyed horseback riding. It won’t be easy for another company, which has nothing to do with horses, to take on the role of president of the equestrian association.We are players. I have absolutely no intention of getting involved in politics.

The labor-management agreement by the Korea Racing Authority (KRA) to normalize public enterprises can be seen as highly significant because, after the government introduced strong measures to normalize public enterprises, it was the first among them to produce tangible results from efforts to restore proper management while other public enterprises were hesitating.Of course, some voices question whether the Korea Racing Authority, long regarded as a “dream workplace” and the number one aspiration among job seekers, can meet demands for genuine business normalization through swift government action. However, given that labor and management of the Korea Racing Authority, which has declared a second founding and is championing customer-centered management, have agreed on swift normalization measures, it appears that a major wave of innovation can be expected to follow.

Whether it was Samsung and Hanwha, that group, contributing 1.5 billion won a year, or 1.6 billion won, or providing support for the association, whatever it was, there was something that benefited the players. Since equestrianism is not supported by the government, without corporate sponsorship, they cannot even compete in competitions, and making it to the Olympics is difficult.Until now, the chair companies have been the Korea Racing Authority, Hanwha, and Samsung. Because they continued to provide funding there,

The Local Tax Research Institute is pushing for a revision of the automobile tax rates to make the fixed automobile tax on ownership more realistic, and is considering expanding the scope of acquisition tax to include new taxable items such as energy facilities like solar and wind power plants, as well as manufacturing equipment in factories. In addition, reflecting social and economic changes, consideration is also being given to taxing acquisition tax on virtual spaces such as internet domains.Jung Moon-geon, Deputy Director of the Local Tax Research Institute, said, “If local taxes are imposed on the admission of golf courses and similar facilities, it will greatly contribute to strengthening local finances.”

Students who compete while attending university pursue the dream of definitely trying out for the next Asian Games selection trials, balancing schoolwork and sports.They provided support in every aspect, starting with training camps, while preparing for the Olympics. Because Samsung spent money and provided support for the development of equestrian sports to that extent, we were able to participate in the Olympics and the Asian Games. I could have won a medal too.

None of the athletic special talents do it like Jung Yura.Among the students I’m teaching right now, there is a friend who is attending university. I go to Hanyang University, and on Mondays and Tuesdays I attend classes all day. So I couldn't come today.

To promote the horse industry solidly, the Yeongcheon Citizens’ Equestrian Team, the largest in the country with 114 members across six divisions, was established and began operations in 2012. In addition, the team has built an organic cooperation system by signing industry-academia-research agreements with Kyungpook National University, various academic societies, and social enterprises. In particular, to establish a foundation for the horse industry, we are currently constructing the country’s first regional riding center for riding horses with mounted horses, equipped with indoor and outdoor training facilities, an auction hall, an education center, and a breeding center, near Unjusan Riding Ranch. For the industrialization of horses, it is especially important to utilize horse by-products to increase added value and link it to farm household income.
