Whatever the group, Samsung and Hanwha, paid 1.5 billion won, 1.6 billion won a year, applied for the association, or did, it helped the players. Horseback riding is an event without government support, so you can't compete without a company sponsoring it, and it's hard to participate in the Olympics.Until now, the chairman's office has been handled by the Korea Racing Authority, Hanwha, and Samsung. Because the company continued to support the money there, the association was able to run and host matches. You might say that 1.5 billion won is small, but if you pay for it every year, the company should be considerable. Although the Korea Racing Authority is said to be a company related to horses, the company's former chairman liked horseback riding, and applied. It would not be easy for Samsung and Hanwha to take over the chairman's office of the Horse Racing Authority in another company that has nothing to do with horses. We are athletes.

Most athletes start exercising with the ambition of winning medals in the Olympics and Asian Games. I don't think I'll just go to college while riding. Students who go to college and compete in the next Asian Games will participate in school classes and exercise with the dream of trying out for the next Asian Games. In preparation for the Olympics, he applied from various fields, starting with the off-season training. Because Samsung spent money and provided support for the development of horseback riding, we were able to participate in the Olympics and Asian Games and win a medal. After the Olympics, we can go out and guide other athletes and deliver their know-how, which is huge. All horseback riders know that Samsung has developed a lot in horseback riding. No matter how much sports you wear only panties and hold shoes, development is difficult without sponsors.

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.

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.

Born in 1928 in Letterken, Donegol, South Island, Father McGrinch arrived in Busan at the age of 25 in 1953 after receiving a new service in 1951. After moving to Suncheon, he served as an assistant priest of Suncheon Cathedral for five months. In 1954, he came to Jeju as a missionary of the St. Golom Outpost Missionary Church and took the helm of the Hallim Public Office of Central Headquarters. Witnessing the reality of Jeju, which was struggling with poverty due to the Jeju April 3 incident and the Korean War, Father McGrinch took the lead in modernization by laying the foundation for cattle farming and establishing social welfare facilities. He purchased a Yorkshire pig that raised a pig from Incheon and brought it to Hallim in Jeju, which later became the basis of the largest ranch in the East, producing 30,000 pigs a year, and the foundation of Jeju's modern herding, and Father McGrinch was nicknamed the "blue-eyed pig priest.

In an article titled Leave Pukyong Racecourse, CEO Kim Byung-hong said, "The fairness of horse racing is achieved through free competition, but it does not suit the horse racing system at all to pay attention to the distribution of income." First of all, CEO Kim Byung-hong said about the indefinite strike by the Busan Gyeongnam Racing Park branch of the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions and the Busan Gyeongnam Horse Racing Authority, saying, "Don't instigate people for your own benefit by encouraging people who have done their best in their duties, such as managers, facilities, and beautification." Regarding the strike, he said, "Even if it is the right of the KCTU, you should know that horse racing is a completely different industry from other manufacturing and service industries," stressing that focusing only on income distribution rather than competition,

Meanwhile, President Moon Jae In paid tribute to the late Father McGrinch in a condolence speech on his death, saying, "The deceased came to Jeju Island as a ray of hope, which has been devastated by the April 3 incident and the Korean War." President Moon said, "He wanted to establish a Sung Yi-dol ranch to get rid of Jeju's poverty, and he became a friend of the poor and underprivileged by establishing welfare facilities such as hospitals, nursing homes, and kindergartens, and credit cooperatives," and added, "The Irish priest with blue eyes took care of and healed Jeju's pain and deeply engraved God's love and peace in the hearts of our people. Thank you and I love you." On the same day, Moon Dae-rim, a candidate for governor of Jeju Island, issued a "statement on Father McGrinch's adenoma" and said, "Father McGrinch is a true saint who has worked for Jeju all his life.

The current situation in the agricultural industry is a crisis, but since agriculture is a life industry, we need groundbreaking policies and national support to revive our life industry and maintain stable farm income and rural communities." Referring to the need to change the philosophy of agricultural policy and introduce an innovation system, he said, "The people should highlight the justification of government support, citing the need for a price for farmers' efforts to strengthen their public functions," adding that it is a time when the role of the National Agricultural Forum as well as farmers' organizations and civic groups is expected. After the public interest function of agriculture will be specified in the Constitution, the task of establishing a foundation for national agriculture and establishing and developing a new policy philosophy will be given, he said.

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.

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.

Teacher Thomas, who debuted on the Korean stage as the third foreign assistant teacher at Let's Run Park Pukyong in 2015, has already entered his third year as a Korean assistant teacher. Three years is a long and short time, but he must have understood Korean horse racing by seeing, hearing and feeling it on the front lines of Korean horse racing. In addition, his grades, which are currently ranked at the top of the list of assistant teachers belonging to Let's Run Park Pukyong, are proof that he is already familiar with Korean horse racing. Now, he is a member who is making a new history of Korean horse racing beyond just a foreign assistant teacher, and he seemed to have affection for Korean horse racing. Let's check the current address of Korean horse racing from the perspective of Thomas, a foreign assistant teacher.

In addition, for quality control in the processing and distribution stages, the agricultural product processing center is established in accordance with HACCP standards, the frozen tower is operated, and efforts are being made to maintain the freshness of agricultural products. Every month, nutrition teachers and parents are running a program to experience the entire process of supplying food materials in the production and processing of agricultural products, building trust in food materials. In particular, it has signed a business agreement with a local senior welfare institution to actively hire the elderly, who are vulnerable to employment, in processing work, and is contributing to the development of the local economy and the improvement of the quality of life of the elderly by creating jobs for the elderly by receiving social enterprise certification.

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,

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.

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.

Before graduating from high school, I decided to get a job and attended an editorial design course for six months. After graduating from high school, I worked as an advertising company and freelancer for nearly two years in Seoul and Jeju Island. I wanted to know about horses that I first encountered in Jeju. So, I recklessly joined the racehorse production team at Sung Isidol Ranch and worked for about two months. Working at Jeju Airport, where working conditions were good, whenever I was off, I went to the horse rink to help me work and rode a horse to ride a rehabilitation horse, and I thought I wanted to study horses and rehabilitation horses properly. With the introduction of the horse-riding instructor I knew at the time, I met Professor Kwon Seung-joo. During the interview,

The reason I asked for an interview with the Horseback Industry Journal is that it is a media company that understands the situation in the horseback riding industry more than other media companies. I don't think I will do any more interviews at the athletes' council. The perception that horse riding is an aristocratic sport has declined a lot, but it is a pity that horse riding is considered bad and sold due to the Choi Soon-sil incident. Not only horseback riding but also all sports and the sports industry itself are on the back foot. It is hoped that not only young athletes who ride horses but also many others will have more opportunities to experience horseback riding. Woo Jung-ho, president of the National Federation of Horseback Riding Athletes, asked for an interview with the newspaper, pointing out that support is needed for athletes' protection and training,

Whatever the group, Samsung and Hanwha, paid 1.5 billion won, 1.6 billion won a year, applied for the association, or did, it helped the players. Horseback riding is an event without government support, so you can't compete without a company sponsoring it, and it's hard to participate in the Olympics.Until now, the chairman's office has been handled by the Korea Racing Authority, Hanwha, and Samsung. Because the company continued to support the money there, the association was able to run and host matches. You might say that 1.5 billion won is small, but if you pay for it every year, the company should be considerable. Although the Korea Racing Authority is said to be a company related to horses, the company's former chairman liked horseback riding, and applied.
