It is truly wrong for the opposing side to present a distorted claim by exaggerating only a part of the past. In the 2000s, the horse racing industry developed further and had a positive impact on society, but it was all ignored. The effects of leisure spectator sports as well as the industrial aspect were also ignored.Some people argue, “Why do you race at off-track betting centers? Go to a racetrack (Let’s Run Park) instead.” However, a racetrack is a production facility equipped with various amenities, and an off-track betting facility is the final consumer outlet of the horse racing industry, like a neighborhood grocery store. I think saying not to open such off-track betting venues is the same as saying not to do horse racing.

In our country, there isn’t even accurate information available regarding horse racing. There are books in Japan and Hong Kong that cover sagging, disease, bloodline, and training methods, but there are no books that treat betting professionally. While I was still in service, I studied by gathering materials in my spare time, and after retiring, I spent six months writing out the entire content. Since then, I have made an effort, analyzing race videos and race results for nearly six years. I learned a lot, especially from Japanese horse racing. I also carefully read through the national horse industry certification exam textbook, which covers horsemanship, general knowledge, and regulations, three to four times.

Korea's culture is a big problem. People engaged in the cultural sector should be able to live by doing cultural work, but that is not possible. Painters live a normal life by drawing and selling. However, in a transitional capital society, it is difficult. Few artists sell paintings in reality. Popular artists, famous senior artists, and the works of the deceased are sold, but those of young artists are not. Culture is generally difficult. The Moon Jae In government seems to be paying attention to culture, but it still lacks a lot. Even looking at the data on the income level of cultural workers posted on the Internet, the annual income is less than 10 million won.

That's why I started literature. Originally, I wrote poetry in middle school. At that time, there was a magazine called 'academy', and it was the only magazine during the Korean War. Poets were published through 'academy', and they were elected in one or two places. Hwang Dong-gyu and Ma Jong-ki, who are poets, are alumni who were active through 'academy'. As I did this and that for my life, novels became my main focus. But now, people don't read novels, so I don't write them well. People don't read books, so they don't sell and the publishing industry is in recession. When I was young, I used to write with passion and willpower, but the problem is that books are not sold, so they are not helpful to life at all.

Novel manuscript fees are poor, so manuscript fees alone cannot make a living. For such reasons, not only me but also many writers have side jobs, such as attending school to give lectures or serving as an editor of a publishing company. I wrote novels, did this and that, and worked in the movie industry. As I loved movies so much, I started collecting videos, but as it became known, a media company asked me for a "movie column." I had to write a story about what I saw in the movie, but it was much easier than writing a novel. After writing a novel like that, I wrote a movie column for 2-3 years.

October, when autumn leaves start to turn red, is the most emotional time of the year. A collection of poems can be found on the empty side behind the colorful fall scenery. In October, the month of culture, we prepared a project to listen to stories of artists dealing with culture and art works based on horses. First of all, we met Lee Je-ha, a veteran novelist, poet, painter and singer. Unlike other works, he often uses horses, but he uses static words rather than words. I tried to shed new light on the words that he viewed through his creative activities in all areas, including literature and art.

At the time, there was nothing for the people to enjoy. When I went to Ttukseom Racecourse, it left a mentally strong impact. I’ve enjoyed various hobbies like golf and Go, but the image of horse racing—the game of riding horses and racing them—and the process of deduction were all fascinating.But whether then or now, 90% of horse racing fans still don’t know anything about horse racing and play without any basics, and they still hold onto the old mistaken belief of chasing quick windfalls. I’d like to ask what our country’s horse racing fans learn about horse racing. It’s unfortunate that, in reality, we haven’t been able to learn accurately and enjoy the game without overdoing it.

Horse Association by communicating with the media and the public while promoting the human resources development team, the head of the cultural empathy center, and the new business project. When he served as the head of the human resources development team in 2008, he introduced the transparent and dynamic public enterprise awards of the Korean Horse Association to the public through interviews with employment-related media, and when he served as the head of the Siheung Cultural Sympathy Center in 2011, he played a first-generation role in actively promoting the social contribution project of the "market sales office" through media interviews such as local newspapers and magazines.

When asked at this year's parliamentary inspection whether he intends to serve all three years of his term, he replied, "If his term is guaranteed, I will do my best within my term." However, after the parliamentary inspection, Chairman Lee Yang-ho, who was classified as a "gujeonggwon" figure as the government started to reshuffle the heads of public institutions, expressed his resignation, and a public offering for the head of the Korean Horse Association began. For the past year or so, the young CEO and communication king who has practiced the vision of the new government as a personnel in the district office and as a personnel in the district office is said to have broadened a new horizon in the Korean horse industry.

Current sales are less than 8 trillion won, and I think even this is being done under pressure. The horse racing industry cannot afford to die like this. To reform the related tax system and change public perception, the KRA must take active measures, such as forming a long-term task force team.The Gyeongju schedule also needs a grave that can operate at intervals of at least 30 minutes. In Japan, it is scheduled at intervals of 3 to 40 minutes. The races are scheduled without giving us horse racing fans even a moment to grab a cup of coffee or a meal, and there’s no chance to catch our breath; this aspect also needs to change.

In addition, Chairman Lee Yang-ho suggested the future direction for the Korean horse industry in a short period of time, including reconsideration of research climate at the Horse Industry Research Institute, hard work to eradicate illegal racing, diversification of social contributions and group support, and support and cooperation that extended to agricultural and rural areas. Of course, there was also "shade." The horse industry expressed concerns over the decision to close the Yongsan Cultural Empathy Center, and it was embarrassing because successive suicides of managers and executives were not directly related.

Chairman Lee Yang-ho, who emphasized internal and external cooperation with the slogan "Let's help unconditionally, let's help infinitely, let's help what we can't help, let's help before calling" at the inauguration ceremony, has been on the site since his inauguration. Ahead of the Lunar New Year's Day, he appeared in person at nearby traditional markets and children's centers for social contribution events for the vulnerable in the region, which continued steadily during his term. With the motto of "Let's take a step ahead, let's look far and do our best" as a work philosophy, he launched the Future Development Strategy Establishment TF to check large-scale investment projects and improve organizational and manpower operations.

Lee Yang-ho, a native of Gumi, North Gyeongsang Province, who was inaugurated as the 35th head of the Korea Racing Authority on December 19 last year, entered public service with the 26th administrative notice and served as the 25th head of the Rural Development Administration, including the head of planning and coordination office at the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry. After taking the post of chairman of the Korea Racing Authority, which is the head of the horse industry, he drew attention by dispelling concerns about "falling mountains.

Both the assistant teacher and the horse manager may have complaints, but I hope they will make concessions to each other and make efforts to improve them step by step over time. Ryu Joo-young, who wants to be remembered as a good example of facing each other, hopes something good will happen next year, the sixth year after his debut. When we first encountered each other, he said he was in a position to learn rather than make a profit for five years. As he said, he learned a lot by paying expensive tuition for two to three years when he was not familiar with horses, and now he has his own know-how.

Although it has made rapid progress compared to the past, the domestic horse racing industry is still at the level of underdeveloped countries. There are areas that need to be gradually improved over time, and the improvement of the environment of the horse race is one of them. I hope that the horse race society will also make efforts to improve the environment for the horse race. The horse race will make efforts to change on its own, but it may change faster if the Korean Horse Racing Association, the implementation of the horse race, provides factors to change the environment for the horse race. I don't know if it is still doing it, but it shows many horses directly to many horses.

That is simply the nature of horse racing, and moreover, the more advanced the country, the better it is transmitted to the market. Therefore, you must also understand the odds theory that embodies the essence of horse racing. Dividend theory is similar to that of stocks as well. The difference is that in stocks, you analyze the investment company’s potential over about a year, whereas in horse racing, you need to judge whether the horse has “improved” after watching it for about a month.Given the size of the economy, our horse racing industry needs to grow further. I believe that the horse racing industry, a major source of funding for the horse industry, should stabilize its sales beyond the 10 trillion won mark over the next 10 years for the equestrian industry and related related industries to develop.

Younghee's Generation" and "Gyeongju's Durebak." I look forward to seeing good results in these words. It may be a matter of solidarity, but I want to be remembered as an exemplary case for those who face each other. Although I paid very expensive tuition for a few years since my debut in 2012, I have spent the first five years that I thought about, and now that I'm getting good grades starting this year, I'm getting greedy. And now that we've met each other, I want to become a top-class man who achieves the highest score.

Rather, it will be not the development of horse racing, but the regression of stepping back. Rather than direct employment, I think efforts are needed to make up for the shortcomings by referring to the institutional system currently implemented in Let's Run Park Seoul. They say that their minds should change first rather than roles. Although they have invested, there are many faces who want to make a profit right away by watching over a certain period of time. Those thoughts are wrong. A lot of improvement is needed. Horse racing development means that the horse society will eventually grow with the national growth, and the Korean horse racing will go to the G1 and G2 advanced horse racing.

Whether it is an assistant teacher or a horse manager, we should gather and come up with the best plan to make it hard to understand why we are going on strike. Everyone did not sincerely engage in negotiations for their own benefit. It is not just anyone who is to blame, but all of them are to blame. The horse society, assistant teachers, and horse managers are all to blame. There should never be a strike. For the development of horse racing, everyone has to make little concessions and come up with good plans to resolve the problem as soon as possible.

Excessive interference can create a situation where they touch each other's pride, and mutual trust does not build at all. That's why I tend not to interfere at all. However, there is one thing that can be regarded as interference, and this is the part where horses are fed. I always talk about that when I go to a bar room, I believe that whether it's good or bad, you have to eat well to run well. I leave everything else to the assistant teachers freely. It is up to the assistant teachers to decide who to pick up the rider and how to train them. I don't know exactly why the strike was decided, but I think the strike itself is wrong.

On July 17, the Caregivers’ Union submitted petitions to the Anyang Regional Employment and Labor Office (Seoul), the Busan Northern Regional Office (Pukyong), and the Gwangju Regional Office (Jeju), requesting administrative guidance on the grounds of violations of the Labor Standards Act and collective agreements. Subsequently, the Busan Northern District Prosecutor’s Office issued an administrative directive stating, “Overtime without labor-management agreement violates the Labor Standards Act, so do not unilaterally impose additional work.” In Seoul, Chairman Park Bong-cheol was questioned by the Anyang District Prosecutor’s Office at the end of July as a complainant, and the fact-finding investigation into the head of the Trainers’ Association and the chairman of the Korea Racing Authority, who are the subjects of the investigation, is ongoing.

Horse racing must not forget the first principle: the prepared horse wins. Unlike people, words show things as they are. For example, regardless of whether a horse is in good or bad condition, it is bound to sell the most. Generally, the prepared term is “the strongest among the horses,” meaning a horse that shows the highest odds among several horses. This theory takes into account the odds movement before the race, regular training, and movements at the preliminary market, and when you are unsure or uncertain about the most popular horse, you must always place the last-place horse at the center of all your bets.If the words are ready, they are bound to be delivered to the market through some channel.
