The event consists of various programs such as lotus root cultivation experience, photo contest, and lotus concert, creating a synergy effect that raises awareness of lotus products and promotes consumption. The 20-ri Dulle-gil, which was created along the lotus road, is adjacent to Miryang Theater Village, Experience Center, and Lotus Complex, which attracted more than 100,000 visitors last year. Choi Bong-soon, head of the rural industry division at the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, said, "Donbak, an agricultural company, is contributing to increasing the income of farmers based on special lotus root processing technology, pioneering new consumption markets, and revitalizing the local economy through experiential activities."

Currently, 12 farms produce lotus roots, and it is gaining the effect of killing two birds with one stone: securing stable raw materials and increasing the income of local farmers, such as supplying about 400 tons of lotus roots last year alone. Pork gourd is complete with HACCP-certified processing and freezing facilities, producing a variety of safe processed foods such as lotus root, fried lotus root, lotus root powder, and lotus root. In addition, it signed a contract to deliver 220 tons of "steamed frozen lotus root" annually with a large distributor this year, equipped with state-of-the-art facilities that can process 1,500 tons of lotus roots annually. CEO Kim Jong-soo introduced high-quality lotus root processing products that are differentiated from existing lotus root products, and in particular,

However, even in the face of a crisis, we cannot help but stop and pick ourselves up and prepare for a new start. Not all industries will be flat and future-oriented. Considering the future of this difficult horse industry now, the difficulties today will be the foundation for further growth in the future. Let us all not be frustrated and endure this pain, adapt to change, and create a new future. This will be a sound industry and survive only when we do our best in each field, from the first to the sixth industries, including production, horse racing, and horse racing. Although the horse industry as a whole is in a difficult situation, we will have to quickly adapt to the changes of the times and prepare for tomorrow.As the best horse newspaper in Korea, I would like to ask you to lead the entire horse industry and provide reasonable alternatives

Real innovation begins with communication and sharing. In order to cope with the current horse racing crisis, this identity of horse racing must be established, and I hope that racing media, an authentic horse racing media, will play a role as a channel for communication and sharing of the horse racing industry. In order for the domestic horse industry and the horse racing industry to move in the right direction amid the rapidly changing environment, the Korean horse industry Journal and the horse racing culture newspaper need to play a continuous role. The Horse Industry Journal and the Horse Racing Culture Newspaper have presented in-depth reports covering the entire horse industry, criticism and alternatives to the horse industry and Korean horse racing in the tough surroundings,

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 to run for change and innovation with the interest and support of the horse racing fans. Korean horse racing, which has embarked on a great journey of advancement and internationalization of horse racing, has made a leap into a part II country since July 2016 and has advanced to the Dubai World Cup last year and this year to stand on par with the world. In addition to horse racing innovation, we were able to achieve positive results for the horse racing industry, including the export of racehorses and the export of race broadcasts.

Compared to 2011, the effect of economic contribution increased by 350 billion won and employment increased by more than 3,300 people, probably due to the efforts of the government and the Korean Horse Association as well as the media such as the Horse Industry Journal. The Korean Horse Association is an organization with a history of nearly 100 years, and is the only public company in Korea that accumulates know-how and creates economic added value by using horses for a long time. For this reason, it was designated as an organization dedicated to fostering the horse industry in 2012. This year, the Korean Horse Association plans to make various efforts, such as training customized professionals for the development of the horse industry and actively promoting farm support projects to foster domestic horses.

In the rapidly changing media environment, the role of professional newspapers is more important than ever, and we analyze in-depth the deep expertise that the general daily newspapers do not meet and provide readers with. In that sense, professional newspapers are an essential companion for readers, including the government, companies, and industry workers in each industry. Until now, the Horse Racing Culture Newspaper has contributed greatly to the development of the Korean Horse Racing Leisure Culture Industry,

First, the media of racing media means mediation and broadcasting. I hope that it will serve as a channel to communicate well between horses and humans, people who know horses, people who don't know horses, people who don't ride horses, people who don't ride horses, people who don't ride horses, and people who don't race horses. 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.

Even though cars have replaced horses, we humans have not been able to erase the history we shared with horses. We could not put horses on the path of history. We continued to support horses running and were enthusiastic about horse racing, and enjoyed horseback riding in common. I believe racing media's footsteps in 19 years are helping horses be remembered, cheered, and breathed in the scenes of our human lives without disappearing as a historical relic. The Hanramar Producers Association is an association of horse-producing farmers in Jeju. Born with the sound of crying a horse, I also rode a horse first before I learned how to walk, and I have lived raising horses all my life. As a person who raises horses, I would like to congratulate them and ask them to speak from the standpoint of the Korea Producers Association.

The horse industry is an industry that grows according to the increase in national income and has already been established as a living sport in many advanced countries. Recently, as interest in health and leisure has increased, Koreans' interest in the horse industry is also expanding. The horse industry is a complex cultural industry that combines livestock and leisure, and has a very high added value. However, there are many challenges for the domestic horse industry to take a leap forward and develop. The government is making various efforts to expand the base of the horse industry, including horse breeding, revitalization of leisure sports, training of professional manpower, and manufacturing related goods. In parallel with the government's efforts, the interest

There were many twists and turns due to the horse racing innovation plan, but the company is doubling its investment and efforts, such as improving the quality of seed horses and racing horses, to keep pace with them, but considering the unfortunate reality that the number of Thoroughbred racehorses required at two racetracks in Korea is limited and farm income such as the loss of surplus horse processing is not increasing, efforts to expand the horse industry and reduce losses are urgently needed, including the rapid opening of the Yeongcheon racetrack and the preservation of surplus horse processing. For the development of the entire horse industry, including horse racing and horseback riding, the best efforts are needed for each group's given crane dances.

We hope that the disabled will enjoy health and happiness through horseback riding, and that the disabled will actively participate in jobs in the horse industry and horse-related industries, providing an opportunity for them to contribute greatly to the economic effect of the horse industry.

Last year, the first five-year comprehensive plan for fostering the horse industry closed last year. In 2011, the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs set a goal to develop the late industry into a new source of income for farming and fishing villages in the FTA era, and made efforts to expand the base of the horse-riding population, focusing on youth and families. In addition, the government also established a policy to foster the horse industry as a driving force for the development of the livestock industry and revitalization of farming and fishing villages. Over the past five years, horseback riding has contributed to the public health, including daily sports and rehabilitation therapy, and has successfully carried out emotional purification and mental treatment for youth such as popularization as daily leisure sports,

Preferably, various support measures and systems should be in place to reorganize the auction market centered on one-year-old horse like developed countries. Inland breeding horses use Let's Run Farm Jangsu's grasslands efficiently, and training has been possible regardless of weather conditions on Let's Run Farm Jangsu's 400-meter indoor road completed earlier this year. It is expected that the quality of inland horses will be improved and the later development will be greatly improved when the existing hilly areas and extended hilly areas are completed with a budget of more than 10 billion won. If you come to the inland domestic horse auction organized by the association, you will be able to meet high-quality breeding horses that producers and Let's Run Farm Jangsu's nurturing trainers have produced and nurtured at a foam-removed price under the support of Let's Run Farm Jangsu,

In order for the horse industry, including horse racing, to establish itself as a new growth engine as soon as possible, all participants, including producers, horseshoe, the Korean Horse Association, the media, and the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, should once again take the reins and work together to pave the way for a new leap forward. The management difficulties of inland racehorse producers are also more serious than ever. The liberalization of imports of foreign horses has reduced the purchasing power of domestic horses, and the auction market is still cold. In order to ensure transparency in the distribution structure of racehorses and to form a fair market value for racehorses between many sellers and buyers, it is urgent to revitalize auctions organized by trustworthy associations.

Every semester, two weeks of hands-on horseback riding are held at the Korean Horse Racing Academy. The horseracing community does not seem interested in gathering corporate CEOs and opinion leaders who can sufficiently serve as the spearhead of the revitalization of horseback riding. It's something I really don't understand. Apart from cost support, many alumni of the CEO of equestrian culture will participate and have a great effect even if there are in-depth programs or special lectures for them. The support should also be fully supported and supported. If businessmen are gathered to hold programs and events, they are 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 sponsorships.

As I went around the site as a advisor so that students can take horse riding classes safely and properly, I learned it little by little. Just as entrepreneurs contributed to vitalizing golf, entrepreneurs must lead the consumption culture of horse riding. It is regrettable that the CEO course of horse riding culture consists of such opinion leaders, but the horse industry is not interested in them at all. It would be great if we 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 for the development and revitalization of horse riding, and that development should be promoted, and it seems that they are not interested at all.

The horseback riding industry has remained the same in the past, while facilities are also being developed mainly by customers and events, programs, and communication services are carried out. As mentioned earlier, you should not say anything negative about other horse riding ranges, but rather find your own unique characteristics and have colors. To consumers who choose everything in their palm in the mobile era, it makes no sense to just say that we are the best horse riding range. How much you provide is more important than how much you do it consumer-centered. You can't do everything, so you need to find something special. You can use your local natural environment, or combine tourism and cultural factors, such as local agricultural products. Of course, I know there are some difficulties. Still, in order to overcome difficulties in the long run,

Only then can the overall image of the horse industry rise and develop. If you go to the horse racing course, you are in a hurry to cut down on other horse racing courses, claiming that they are the best and nowhere else. However, it is more like cutting my flesh. Rather, you should first have basic facilities such as changing rooms and showers, and then adjust one by one through a facility or route configuration that allows you to see the accompanying people riding. This point is well utilized in golf, which is called a nearby leisure sport. In the past, golf instructors who taught golf taught taught golf to push and teach golf customers, claiming that they were former players. However, as golf became more popular and spread, the golf market grew and competed. In addition, as consumers' understanding of golf has improved, the industry has now changed more customer-oriented than named.

Whether you are abroad or in the provinces, you can learn enough if you have the will. If you want to learn the Korean language industry abroad, such as in China and Southeast Asia, you are not restricted by the conditions of space. Because the curriculum can be conducted from a distance, leaders who are training in the field can obtain a master's degree without visiting the classroom. And you can graduate by completing your major instead of your graduation thesis. The master's course in the horse industry, which will debut from the fall semester this year, will recruit applicants by July 20. If you apply within the period, you will be notified of your acceptance through document screening. Our graduate school has a variety of scholarship benefits and a variety of majors, so it will be good to choose.

Perhaps in the future, graduate students will play a role in leading and leading the horse industry. Of course not me. I will invite the best people in the horse industry to teach. Someone who has both skills and awareness. As it is a graduate program, it is a personnel matter of a master's degree or higher. Some may question that there is no curriculum. Those who do not know may misunderstand this, but our graduate school's basic course is well equipped. It is well organized into marketing, service, distribution, facility management, and events. It is specialized by combining the 'horse industry' with this. We will invite the best experts in the horse industry as professors to make it the best class.

Starting in the fall semester, the master's course in the 'horse industry' will be opened for the first time in Korea. I promoted it when I was a sports industry major at Sejong University's Graduate School of Industrial Science. In the department of sports industry, four majors were prepared: horse industry management, sports marketing, sports medicine, and sports tourism. I think I'm really worried about what I'm saying, and I want to develop the horse industry into a true industry. 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.

This is the poem of Professor Kim Hak-shin, who is in charge of the CEO course for domestic company CEOs and opinion leaders at Sejong University. When I visited Mongolia last year, I featured my thoughts on riding horses along the riverside that flows through Terlji National Park. 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.

Lee has a dream to become a Jangje-sa in Korea. "If I have a good chance of finding a job like this, I can relieve all my fatigue when I see a horse walking comfortably with a horseshoe that has been completed after hard work," Lee said. There have been two ways for Jangje-sa to acquire a certificate after going through a national qualification exam or a training course for the Korean Horse Association. After going through the national qualification examination, it was possible for her to practice horse racing if she acquired the license through a training course for the Korean Horse Association. Recently, however, the Korean Horse Association's Jangje-sa Training Course has been abolished, allowing only those who passed the national qualification examination to participate in Jangje-sa. If she acquires a Jangje-sa certificate through the national qualification examination,

Horses are the only animals that wear shoes. The horseshoe is not just a protective gear but also a direct link to health and racing performance. Now that job creation is the biggest topic in the horse industry, Jangje is attracting young people's attention as a promising profession. Once regarded as a difficult, dirty, and dangerous 3D job, Jangje is recognized as a special profession in the horse industry. More and more young people are viewing it as a "promising job" that others have not chosen. It is a rare job that only 80 people in Korea currently have due to its unique professional characteristics. There are 65 Jangjeosa certified by the Korean Horse Racing Authority, and many freelancers are engaged in ordinary horse riding courses unofficially.
