At the time, the Korea Racing Authority proposed that, as illegal horse racing continued to rise, causing massive tax revenue outflow and worsening problems such as gambling addiction, a government-led crackdown was necessary to legalize the underground economy and minimize the social losses caused by gambling.They also highlighted the need to amend the Korea Racing Authority Act to establish a legal foundation for overcoming management crises, such as the decline in horse racing revenue, and to fulfill its role as a dedicated institution for the horse industry. The revisions include expanding the scope of the project, establishing a legal basis for online betting to comply with the full real-name system and purchase limits, and strengthening penalties for misconduct in horse racing.

His horse was in good condition, and we began serious training on Tuesday to build our rhythm. I’m very happy to have won, and if there are any races in Korea while I’m active in Japan, I’d like to come and say hello.At the end of last year, the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs completed a study on “Measures to Revitalize Off-Track Betting Venues,” which included 15 key tasks for their stabilization, among them the introduction of an online betting system.The online betting system, introduced in Korea in 2005, was enacted to meet the demands of customers seeking online transactions amid the rapid spread of IT technology, to bring users of illegal internet horse racing ticket purchasing agencies into the regulatory framework, and to contribute to the sound development and popularization of horse racing by providing real-name ticket-purchasing services.

Just because they are called riding horses doesn't mean they are at the level of professional riders; they are designed for comfort. Six months is enough. Six months could be long. I believe it could be done in three to four months if you focus on the process.In Halla's case, it is currently 4 to 5 million won per unit. After 3 to 4 months of training, the price can rise to 8 to 9 million won. It is the value of a trained horse. As long as the training system works properly, there will be no loss. We had established policies to preserve losses from the national budget,

What is regrettable is that, despite reaching an agreement, having policies prepared, and the association being properly managed, we simply wasted two years due to internal conflict instead of receiving policy funding. They failed to secure even a national project.As a result, converting Hallama into a riding horse has become a burden. But I will keep helping along the way. In Jeju, a riding horse breeding and training center will soon be established on the Korea Racing Authority’s site and in Seogwipo. If these facilities are used well,

Since horses dislike sand splashing, we researched many ways to overcome this issue. I think focusing on managing my condition to minimize the stress from playing away was the key to the victory. I believe Korea can develop quickly because of its strong willingness to learn from advanced horse racing. I would like to visit Korea again if I have the chance.At the preliminary meeting, the trainer said that as long as he let the horse run freely, it could achieve good results. I think focusing on the fast-approaching 'Fly Top Queen' and 'Joy Luckie' led to a good result.

Build a portion of it there so that Jeju horses can join, be trained, and complete their training on the main course before coming.To support farms with inadequate facilities, the Jeju Horse Producers Association has secured a certain amount of provincial funding to operate the Seongeup Livestock Center. We are renovating the facilities. Although a mid- to long-term roadmap has been established, infrastructure is necessary for the implementation of entry-level criteria based on the process.Of course, it is not enough to just build the infrastructure and have a plan in place.

Although it was in the early stages, we persuaded the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry and managed to get it to the Ministry of Strategy and Finance,but the special zone funds were not provided sufficiently.We secured 400 million won in national funds and 400 million won in provincial funds through other channels,but as the project progressed,various internal regulations and legal issues rendered those funds unusable.In the case of Thoroughbreds,the Korea Racing Authority's funds are used,

In a real circular pasture, the area should be completely enclosed to maintain high horse concentration during the initial acclimation stage, but most farms do not have a closed circular pasture like those of the Korea Racing Authority. In addition, most farm workers operate alone. Although there are 20 to 30 horses, I am often busy because I work alone. I can't invest much time. When training alone, you may not even know what is wrong. The four pilot farms meet once a month to take turns receiving training, sharing feedback, and correcting any issues.

As the Integrated Gambling Industry Supervision Commission, which had maintained strict regulatory policies on the legal gambling industry, begins to change its stance, the possibility of the horse racing industry resuming online betting is increasing.Recent estimates from the media and academia suggest that the scale of illegal gambling ranges from 100 trillion to 160 trillion won, with tax evasion related to it reaching up to 8 trillion won (according to the 2014 estimate by the Korea Institute of Criminology). Despite calls from various sectors to focus on cracking down on and preventing illegal gambling, the Gambling Supervision Commission consistently maintained strong regulatory policies toward legal gambling, but these ultimately created a balloon effect, and signs of a policy shift within the commission are now beginning to emerge.

Graduates who have learned those processes and manuals at school carry out those processes professionally. For example, after graduating, trained students sign contracts with 15 farms and visit them regularly to train the horses according to their needs and the training process. The plan is for them to receive training expenses instead of being unable to join the racetrack or having to stay there long-term and pay management fees, so that the horses can be put to use. We are working closely with the school to carry it out.

Data will be tracked to compare horses that have undergone training at demonstration farms with those of different ages. They will track and fear how much earlier the race entry becomes and what the results will be. Knowing that it has been effective at other farms, we hope it will be distributed quickly.In coordination with Jeju Halla University, which co-authored the standard manual, four pilot farms have been selected to gather monthly for training sessions to refine the manual.First, there is the problem of aging farms.

Rather than limiting themselves to the racetrack or merely promoting the program, they are visiting farms in the eastern and western regions to demonstrate it firsthand. This shows them in actual training. As a result, many surrounding farms participated."One may question the effectiveness of the standard manual. Therefore, pilot farms were designated. Among the producers, we selected four farms that had the facilities and the motivation. Yes, we selected 24 horses and are training them according to the manual.Jeju Halla University,

After receiving approval, we were alarmed and held briefing sessions for therapists, trainers, trainees, and owners last year.We created a standard manual last year. There is a method for every aspect of raising and training.It was produced by capturing the actual training process on CD.The problem is,after having all the materials ready, saying,I made this.Although they said,Please attend," many farmers did not show up, and there were things they did not know.But I couldn't just leave it be.When creating the manual,

Therefore, as long as the legal basis is in place, it is unlikely to be difficult to reintroduce online betting.A Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs official said, "The need for the revival of online betting has been raised for a long time. Online betting can change the negative image of the previously crowded downtown off-track betting centers. It was stated that, furthermore, securing the competitiveness of legal horse racing can help reduce the harms caused by illegal private horse racing.The Korea Racing Authority is also making great efforts to resume online betting. In 2013, the Korea Racing Authority proposed to the National Assembly that the law be amended to allow betting tickets to be purchased online.

Last year, a roadmap was drawn in the mid- to long-term race resource management plan to strengthen the competitiveness of Jeju horse racing. Words that have not yet been trained, or whose training level has not been evaluated at all, are also brought in as racehorses. It takes about 90 days from starting training here to entering the race. We cannot continue with this system.Gradually, at first, have some of the horses that have completed the start test enter. The next step is to allow only horses that have passed the 100% departure inspection to enter.

First, they prepared a school system' that organizes the production process systematically. Last year, we reviewed good research materials on how to handle production and the development of sullabiesheds, as well as how to manage their early and late stages.There is plenty of information about thoroughbreds, both abroad and in Korea, but not a single one about the Jeju horse. The standards related to 'Thoroughbred' could not be applied to Jeju horses. So last year, we created standard manuals for production, breeding, training,

Recently, the Gambling Supervision Commission has hinted at allowing the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs and the Korea Racing Authority to resume online betting, reportedly demanding thorough preparations to prevent gambling addiction, including the implementation of a real-name system and adherence to purchase limits.The abolition of online betting, which goes against the times, has ultimately caused inconvenience for horse racing fans, a decline in viewing conditions, and a lack of service. Although somewhat late, the revival of online betting appears to be essential for the legalization of the underground economy and for the horse racing industry to escape its crisis.Due to opposition from some residents and civic groups, the Korea Racing Authority delayed the opening, but on June 28, 2014, launched a trial opening for LetsRun CCC Yongsan and continued the trial operation until the end of September.

Because they enter without proper training, their expertise is lacking, and many accidents occur. The horses are also running worse. His abilities are good, but there are also significant disparities. Overall, the quality of the race is lacking. Jeju horse racing is broadcast in Seoul and Busan, but there were complaints from customers saying, "I can't watch it," and "What kind of horse racing is this?"Employees working at LetsRun Park Jeju had also been considering this issue, but there were limitations due to internal circumstances.

Management Department are conducting farmer training following last year’s service report on the production, breeding, training, and nutrition and feeding management of racehorse Jeju horses.In the case of Thoroughbreds, the Korea Racing Authority has invested a large sum of money in producing and training them even before they become racehorses. They put a lot of effort into the pre-race stage by establishing a jangsu and a Jeju ranch and managing personnel.

On May 31, the Korea Racing Authority resumed betting sales at LetsRun CCC Yongsan but adopted a 'no-response strategy' toward the opposition rallies and illegal activities at the time. This lack of response from the Korea Racing Authority thwarted efforts by opponents and civic groups to turn the issue into a social concern.The Korea Racing Authority is calling for an objective evaluation, stating that 'Let's Run CCC is evolving beyond a model of tax payments and donations to support underprivileged groups into a community job creation and resident-friendly cultural facility.'A Korea Racing Authority official said, "LetsRun CCC Yongsan is the first project by the Authority to transform itself into a community-friendly multi-leisure space rather than focusing on profitability."It was emphasized that a themed complex cultural space will be created within the building, featuring content that local residents will welcome.

Since 2014, Deputy Director Kim Jin-gap has been in charge of managing Jeju’s racing resources at LetsRun Park Jeju, and over the course of that long period, he has continued tireless efforts as a dedicated practitioner, developing relevant policies and manuals, persuading farms, and leading training.
