The second protagonist of the 19th Horse Industry Awards relay interview is Kim Yong-geun, a jockey in the best jockey category. He played a part in the "Power Blade"'s rise to the triple crown, breaking the stronghold of the jockey Moon Se-young, who has won the best jockey category for five consecutive years. In his first year since debuting in 2006, he made a spectacular debut with 23 wins, and in 2012, he recorded 91 wins, setting a new record of the most wins in the season. As he moved his activities from Pukyong, a park, to Seoul starting this year, Moon and his rival match are also attracting attention from horse racing fans. He met with Kim Yong-geun, a jockey who showed humble attitude, saying, "The good performance of horses rather than his skills has been attributed to good performance," and had an interview with him at the Horse Industry Awards.

This is my first time encountering a horse through this rehabilitation horse riding held at Samsung Medical Center. I think there will be more people around me who have never touched a horse. However, horseback riding cannot be someone's own. Rehabilitation horseback riding can help sick children develop empathy and build intimacy by communicating with animals. As a living medium, I am confident that it helps more than machines. I hope people don't see horseback riding as just an image of aristocratic sports. I hope that sick children and all children can enjoy horseback riding. Recently, the image of horses and horseback riding has been deteriorating due to various incidents, and I hope government agencies and organizations that promote the horse industry will continue to support and organize them well. I hope that rehabilitation horseback riding will be promoted and activated as soon as possible, and a healing society through horses will come."

I did not worry about safety. There are two sidewalker volunteers who catch the rider from both sides, a leader who pulls the horse from the front, and a rehabilitation teacher conduct the class. There are no risk factors for parents to worry about. It is not just riding a horse, but when conducting the class, they continue rehabilitation by catching something for a sense of balance. This is how the child is enjoying himself. It was not a normal horse riding feeling, but I felt, 'This is a rehabilitation horse.' No. Two other children from the Frederick Willie syndrome patient group also participated. The children also seemed to be enjoying themselves. When a friend of the same age as Yerin first started riding rehabilitation, she was afraid of horses, but over time she showed good performance. Teachers were also worried a lot at first because it could be dangerous because of unexpected behavior, but now they say that the number has decreased a lot and that they have formed a lot of intimacy with horses.

I have been serving as the chairman of the hospitalization committee since July 2015. It started with the suggestion of Professor Jin Dong-kyu of Samsung Medical Center. For his child's rehabilitation, he went to a pediatric rehabilitation hospital instead of going to a tertiary hospital such as Samsung Medical Center, and he always attended the annual Frederick Willie syndrome symposium. At the meeting, Professor Jin Dong-kyu of Samsung Medical Center, who is interested in Frederick Willie syndrome, suggested riding a rehabilitation horse. I did not know much about horseback riding. However, I did rehabilitation therapy using horseback riding equipment often. Perhaps this is why my child said he wanted to ride a horse since he was young, and he was not afraid when he rode a real living horse. The reason why I participated more actively when I received an offer from Samsung Medical Center to participate in the rehabilitation ride was that the child was not afraid but liked it.

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.

This disorder causes people to feel hungry 365 days a year, making it difficult to control their food. Patients with Frederick Willie's syndrome feel the feeling every day when ordinary people skip a day. Most people are obese due to their high interest in food, which causes obesity complications such as high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease. The group was formed in 2002 by parents of children with Frederick's syndrome in Korea. Initially, the hospital linked them to form small groups, and hormone injections were also supported. Since joining the hospital is not mandatory, it currently has about 240 members. This syndrome is not clearly visible to the eye, so there are many cases where you may be suffering from it. These days, it can be known by genetic testing in advance at hospitals, but many parents do not know and overlook it because their children were born and had a bad time before, but when they were 2 to 3 years old, their appetite suddenly increased and the amount of food ate increased.

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.

Chairman Lee Yang-ho said, "It was a very difficult time for agriculture due to the Uruguay Round negotiations at the time, and to overcome this, he first introduced the Agricultural Cooperative Corporation and the Agricultural Company Corporation, and introduced the Agricultural Promotion Area to lay the foundation for our agricultural policy." In particular, he said that farmers, organizations and the government have also introduced a self-funded system to study the promotion of consumption by creating funds. He suggested the motto "Let's take one step ahead and do our best in philosophy," and said that it is important to make efforts to prevent problems in advance. Chairman Lee Yang-ho also said, "It is important to put out the fire that fell on your feet, but it is also important to look at the direction the organization should go in the mid- to long-term."

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.

However, the horse was weak after three corners. People see this and say what they did because they didn't do good deeds, but you can tell by watching the video of the race. 'Freddie Formaroy' is not a word that necessarily goes to a good deed and wins. In fact, it was not easy to decide. Many people asked me why I had to go to Seoul and suffer when I had a family in Busan, and I rode well and made a lot of money. I talked a lot with my wife and discussed a lot with my assistant teacher Kim Young-kwan. The company also suggested that we change the atmosphere in Seoul, so I moved it. It's been about a month now and it's fun. It was hard because I couldn't get used to it for the first two weeks. But now I'm fine because I'm used to it. From my point of view, I think there are more advantages than disadvantages. The downside is that you earn less than Busan and don't see your family often. There is less mental burden than Pukyong. Currently, life in Seoul is satisfactory.

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.

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.

As such, the horses of Article 19 were firm and strong. They were in bad shape because of those reasons, but they were the worst when the "Freddie Formoroy" scandal broke out. At that time, he performed well on the "Freddie Formoroy" and won a horse race, so he was confident. All horses of Article 19 had never ridden before. He was also well aware of their habits. I clearly knew that the horses of Article 19 would fight against each other because I introduced a "main stay" that pre-empts and pre-recruits the "tuk-tuk-tuk-tuk." I thought I didn't have to lose money by fighting the strength of the 'Otuk-tuk-tuk' because I had two experiences of turning one or two and winning without going to the good deed. If I went to the good deed, I would go, and if 'Otuk-tuk-tuk-tuk' wanted to go out, I would give it away. I was going to check it by following it and exhaust the power of 'Otuk-tuk-tuk', and I was going to win the 'main stay' after saving my strength.

Every horse he rode showed good performance. Popular horses have improved their performance to some extent, while non-popular horses have become less popular. His strong handling has led to his rapid rise in popularity.Since I won the horse race and reached the highest position, and Kim Young-kwan was also the best assistant teacher, I heard many bad things. You are a standard-bearer of Article 19, you will be treated when you meet in the race with Article 19, etc. The assistant teachers didn't tell you directly, but they heard it indirectly. Actually, it's not me. If I didn't ride a Article 19 horse and the other horse was at the end of Article 19, I really wanted to win and tried to win. However, as a result, I often lost to the Article 19 horse. So I was misunderstood a lot. I told my assistant teacher Kim Young-kwan that I would win. He said he was confident of winning, but when he ran in the race, he often lost.

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.

Powerblade seems to be a time of year. Every year, there were one or two horses that were competing and similar in level at each race. And in the second half or during the 'Minister of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs' competition, the horses suddenly got stronger and good horses appeared. Last year, when Powerblade ran, there was no clear opponent. We had one in the same group, the horse used for sprinting. The best key was in the 'KRA Cup Mile.' There was a difference between whether or not we could win the championship. At that time, the horse was in very bad condition. He won the championship even when he was in bad condition. This horse is a really capable horse. At the beginning of the 'Korean Derby,' I was confident that I would win the championship unconditionally. The horse was in such good condition.

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.

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.
