How good is it for us to ask the equestrian for an apology from the president? And I fully understand the news conference about the fact that they suffered damage due to Choi Soon-sil. Isn't it unfair from their point of view that executive director Park Won-oh came down and said something while the referee was watching? I hope that one person, Jeong Yu-ra, will not harm Amon's special athletes. Most of the students exercise since they were young and still take time out of school. All special athletes don't do it like Jeong Yu-ra. I have a friend who goes to college among the students I teach now. I go to Hanyang University, but I can't come today. Tomorrow, he takes classes, and he comes to exercise after 3 p.m. He takes classes, and he comes to exercise even if it's late in the afternoon. Most of them are like that. Few athletes quit school.

And just as a person who doesn't go to the mountain wears a hiking suit and thinks about going to the mountain once, he or she is going to ride a horse after wearing a horseback riding suit. If the horse industry also turns its attention to fashion, there is certainly an opportunity to expose the horse industry to the general public. To enter the Japanese equestrian market, a Japanese equestrian was dressed in our clothes to participate in the competition. By chance, however, the athlete won the dressage event at the All-Japan Championships, and it became well known to the Japanese horse racing world. The winner of dressage was promoted even more because he did not miss the first place and achieved excellent results. Then, a proposal was made through an agency that handles horse riding clothes, and recently, our brand has officially entered a shop inside the crane horse racing facility in Japan.

This is the part that demanded the resignation of Samsung, the current chairman of the Horse Racing Association. The players are grateful for the fact that a large company called Samsung supports them as the chairman of the Horse Racing Association. Horse racing is an unpopular sport, but it has invested in and contributed to the development of Korean horse racing. If Samsung steps down from its chairman's position right now, how will the horse racing association operate right away and how will next year's competition be held? It is nonsense to just demand Samsung's resignation without any countermeasure. He did not think about our horse-riding athletes and horse-riding people. What they said at the press conference was not all of us horse-riding people, but as victims. They are not integrating the opinions of all horse-riding people.

In fact, it was not an environment where people could easily access horses, but I accidentally entered the school. I learned horseback riding at the recommendation of Executive Director Park Cheon-seok. After establishing the Penakova Korea subsidiary, I heard that there was a CEO course for horseback riding in Sejong, and in this process, I wanted to wear horseback riding fashion clothes to the graduation ceremony and have asked for help. I sponsored it because I was close to each other, and when I stopped by to greet the next freshman, I was on the list of freshmen. Executive Director Park had already applied for it in advance. That's how I started riding in earnest. When I first rode a horse, I felt that it was a really good exercise. As I learned and rode a horse in earnest, I fell in love with an animal called a horse. In the past, I thought horseback riding was dangerous because it was about handling horses. Now that I think about it, it is a funny thing to say.

Horses were a new opportunity for her. It has been more than 20 years since she started living on behalf of her husband. Now, she is a representative of boiling and distributing the largest number of heads in the province. Now that she is intensively breeding more than 200 Hanramas, she is now running a stable management. She is producing, fostering, distributing, and selling horses herself, and developing soaps and extract as by-products. The company plans to open a white horse garden again and even establish a restaurant that combines distribution. It is a representative "sixth industry person" in the horse industry. Although she is a woman, she has lived in the rough horse industry for 20 years, so she knows everything. She even explains her age, breed and quality of meat just by looking at the appearance of horses that eat feed on feed.

Back then, most farmers were just slaughtering horses. Maintaining freshness was important, but freshness was always left behind due to the culture of not sharing meat, including liver and intestines. He decided that rather than selling high-quality horse meat alone, restaurants in the province would have to sell fresh meat to coexist. About five years after running the restaurant, he started distributing horse meat to promote fresh horse meat. Transportation, slaughter, and expenses at the venue were "free service" to the restaurant and sharing only the price of meat. He was under tax audit, and when he caught sales of 10 million won per horse, he fined him. He struggled to revitalize horse meat, shared meat and managed it transparently, but the tax authorities were reckless. Even if I explained it, it didn't work. I cried a lot at the unfairness.

Just as she insisted on natural raw fish, she was faithful to the basics. It was pitiful. The principle is to offer fresh and high-quality horse meat to customers. When horse meat comes in, it should be sold within 15 days. If the caught meat is left for a long time, it is not fresh, so the meat was sold cheaply or the meat was made as a child and distributed to customers. People around me dissuaded me from offering expensive meat, but I stuck to the principle. A year later, customers lined up. The White Horse Restaurant was well-known for delicious, fresh, and high-quality horse meat on the table, and word of mouth was fast. Fresh beef sashimi was also provided free of charge to customers. When the kitchen managers who handled the cattle came, they said, "Do as I do.

He has worked in France for three years since 2013. After working in various countries, he is now in charge of funeral parlors and horseback riding. His father was largely influenced by his involvement in the funeral parlour. His father was a famous assistant teacher and funeral parlour since the 1950s. "He was very inspired by his father. He is still doing his funeral parlour by hitting his tools even though he is 83 years old," he said. "As a funeral parlour, I also want to live my life with a constantly learning attitude like my father." When asked how he felt when he saw Korean horse racing as a foreign funeral parlour, he said, "He is passionate about Korean horse racing. I can feel that not only horse racing fans but also those involved really love and like horse racing.

For example, all the things that would have been easy to do if the horse-riding auction had been held at Jangsu Ranch, which was equipped with auction facilities, were all things to be noted here. From the installation of horse-riding and temporary horse-riding to the management of the horses' movements. Still, I think it is a great harvest that such a large horse race was installed inside the fair for the first time in Korea, and various performances ranging from horse-riding gymnastics to dressage shows were held and received great response. There were difficulties, but in the end, I was able to hold the fair well because of your cooperation. In Korea, there has never been such a large indoor horse race inside the exhibition hall. Since there is little experience in holding horse-related events in Korea,

Many events have been held mainly in Gwacheon, but I think we should go in that direction if we can hold them in other regions. However, it is necessary to select the exhibition area in the future by examining and considering the improvements made through this fair. The horse industry has a single field and has been thinking a lot about how to decorate the horse industry fair, a big event. We tried to make sure that events and projects that differ in timing and place could be held at KINTEX in the second week of October. It was to create as much synergy as possible for the fair. However, it was not easy to combine several independent events. As each situation is different, there were so many things to pay attention to from schedule adjustment to movement management.

Triple Nine," which has been selected as the representative horse of the year for the second consecutive year and has been reborn as the representative horse of Korea, has made a page in the history of Korean horse racing by taking the final stage of the Dubai World Cup, the dream stage for the first time in a Korean horse race. Although it was regrettable that it ranked 11th out of 13 in the last race, the Godolphin Mile Competition, it is said that it has shown a further improvement in Korean horse racing. Choi Byung-bu, the face-to-face, also kept his promise with horse racing fans by participating in "Triple Nine" until the final round. To see the four competitions in which "Triple Nine" competed in person, I met Choi Byung-bu, who showed his affection by traveling to Dubai four times.

Therefore, the intention was that this time it should be an "industry-oriented fair." I thought about how it would help participating companies' businesses and what it would support them. In addition, it was expected that information sharing among participating companies would help develop the horse industry on its own. Therefore, I prepared this fair thinking that it should be regarded as an fair attended by companies related to the horse industry. In addition, it was also intended to introduce cultural contents related to horses. It was judged that the cultural industry is an industry and that it would be more meaningful and successful if there are various things to see and enjoy rather than a simple industrial exhibition. There was also a message from the chairman, Si Sung-kwan, that it would be better to reinforce the contents of horse culture.

Companies that participated in the industrial fair should be the center, but if it is held inside, there may be cases of interference. The fair itself could have been seen as part of an event held at a racetrack. There was also a concern that the main visitors would be fixed as those who visited Let's Run Park Seoul to enjoy horse racing rather than the general public. Also, Let's Run Park Seoul must install the facilities on outdoor sites, not on specialized exhibition facilities. As such, it is inferior in terms of exhibition infrastructure. After thinking about which measures could help promote horse industry-related companies, he came to Ilsan KINTEX thinking that it would be of great help if he used specialized exhibition facilities. The first fair in 2010 had to be satisfied as the first fair held for the first time due to the short preparation period,

In a broad sense, there are three reasons. The fact that it is a rare international youth competition, that pony auctions are held together, and that private horse racing grounds are the center of the horse industry special zone played a major role. It was notable that international youth competitions are not common and that pony auctions are held together. The reason why the foundation of the Korean horse industry is weak is that most of the horses are imported, and I thought that the opening of the pony auction was meaningful because it is a process in which the foundation for production and trade is being established. In addition, private horse racing grounds must be activated in order to expand the base of the horse industry, and it was considered a lot that such events will be held in Icheon, a special horse industry zone.

There is a place called Seongho Reservoir in Icheon City. I plan to contain everything for horses around this reservoir. It will focus various horse industry-related businesses from horse riding grounds to horse riding schools, horse-riding residence hotels, and horse saddle-making companies. It will create many horse-producing and breeding farms to generate income and make them a center of popularization of horses with everything about horses. Even now, horseback riding is common to be considered an aristocratic sport. It is not easy to ride a horse unless you have some money. That's why it is starting with youth horse riding. In particular, with the Pony Bell on it, the youth are making it easier for them to live their horses and popularize them. For example, Icheon City invested 240 million won for youth horse-riding groups,

Personally, my dream was to create a permanent horse racing market. I also designed a marketplace where the whole family could come and ride horses, watch shows, and buy supplies on weekends by making a horse racing park nearby. It was intended to host the event in Yeonggwang, Jeollanam-do, and recently, a local government in the metropolitan area showed interest and is pushing for it. Even in Korea, where the FTA began in earnest, the income of cattle and pigs is gradually decreasing. The government also encourages horses, but it is in the early stages. Management is still difficult at sites such as horse racing and ranches, and there is no sales channel. However, I think the possibility of development is endless. In order for the horse industry to develop, it must focus on research and development. In addition,

When the Chilgok plant is completed, it is expected that it will meet the demand for Gyeongju's retirement horses in Let's Run Park Busan and Gyeongnam and Yeongcheon. Since it is a company specializing in waste disposal, we need to establish a system and foundation to handle even dead horses. I think it is most urgent to turn horses into resources. There is no way to dispose of them, let alone support them, so they call a forklift and secretly bury them in the ground. It is because there is a company that handles cattle and pigs, but it is expensive, and there is no basis for handling horses. When I cut it, the meat usually weighs 180 kg, but the feed factory says it cannot pay more than 4,000 won per kilo. It is 500,000 won per two including transportation costs, but it is said to be expensive at the horse riding site. We will try to reduce the price to the 300,000 won mark as much as possible.

I heard that Jeju will hold a horse-riding fashion show. (Thousand) In May, Jeju National University will hold a fashion show with students from Jeju National University. It has already signed an MOU with Jeju National University, and is hosted by Lee Kyung-gap, a professor of food and nutrition at Jeju National University. As in all sports, industry and fashion must go hand in hand. It is an opportunity to introduce and show horse-riding clothes to the general public including students through the fashion show. It is important to promote the horse industry itself, but it can also bring about the effect of promoting the horse industry by exposing horse-riding clothes and horse-riding fashion first. Just as people who do not play golf wear golf clothes as their daily clothes, and people who do not go to the mountains wear hiking clothes as their daily clothes, ordinary people can enjoy wearing horse-riding clothes as their daily clothes.

Penakova. It is a brand of horse-riding clothing that any horse-riding person has heard familiarly. It always appears at stadiums or horse-riding events where horse-riding takes place, and they are breathing with horse-riding people. They use various broadcasting equipment to broadcast live horse-riding competitions, and they are taking the lead in promoting horse-riding by re-editing and uploading videos of dressage matches that may feel boring. Penakova, which is striving to spread horse culture in various ways, won the grand prize in the horse culture category at the 19th Horse Industry Awards. We met with Park Yoon-seop, CEO of Penakova (hereinafter referred to as 'Yoon') and Park Cheon-seok, executive director (hereinafter referred to as 'Cheon') who are self-proclaimed as an alimi of the horse industry beyond horse-riding alimi, and talked to them.

While exploring various ways to tackle the problem, the "Diversification of Use of Retired Horse" project has been launched. Meanwhile, Holstown (CEO Kim Moo-young) is headquartered in Paju, Gyeonggi Province and is preparing to set up an office in Chilgok, North Gyeongsang Province, to specialize in disposing of retired horses and all horses. This reporter interviewed Kim Moo-young, the CEO of Holstown, in Paju, Gyeonggi Province on Oct. 27. The company specializes in disposing of retired horses and abandoned horses, which was selected by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs and the Korea Racing Authority as a "project to support diversification of use of retired horses." It is currently operating a plant in Chilgok. It plans to start operation in earnest next year. It will also push for the establishment of a farming company.

However, for now, I am not sure what I can do and how I can help. For trainers, I believe they need to acquire advanced training skills in the future. Instead of sticking to the old skills learned from their seniors, I believe that new technologies must be learned by inviting instructors from horse society or trainer associations to become an advanced horse country that is second to none in the world. It has been several years since the law was announced, but there seems to be not much that can be done because the law has not been completed. I believe that the development of the horse industry will accelerate only when the unfinished law is completed as soon as possible rather than left as it is. The Korean Horse Association is a public enterprise, and I think privatization should be done.

Since we met each other, I have met horses. One of my high school classmates, a friend whose wife's family runs a racehorse production ranch on Jeju Island, told me that they were recruiting horses at Let's Run Park Pukyong one day. The friend said, "You are qualified, so apply for it," so we met each other without knowing what it is. That's how the relationship began, and in February this year, I majored in horse genetics in graduate school and earned my master's degree. I run a Jemagi Technology Institute in Changwon, and I am building a tentatively named Marand racehorse recreation facility, a horse riding course, and a tourist farm in Ibanseong-myeon, Jinju, Gyeongsangnam-do, with the goal of completing it next spring.
