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, just like in advanced countries. Inland breeding horses are efficiently using Let's Run Farm Jangsu's grasslands, and training has been possible regardless of weather conditions on the 400-meter indoor road in Let's Run Farm Jangsu, which was 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 hillside is 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 the high-quality horse produced and nurtured by the producers and the training staff of Let's Run Farm Jangsu at a price that has removed the foam,

I applaud the racing media officials' hard work for the development of the horse industry even during a difficult time when the overall horse industry is shrinking due to internal and external factors. It is considered a serious time for all participants, including producers, horse racing, the Korean Horse Association, the media, and the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, to take the reins once again and work together to pave the way for a new leap forward so that the horse industry, including horse racing, can establish itself as a new growth engine as soon as possible. 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.

Recently, the Pukyong Racing Authority "Triple Nine" won a close race against a top-class foreign horse in the Godolphin Mile race at the Dubai World Cup, one of the best races in the world, and the main stay won the Dubai World Cup qualifying round. In addition, many changes and efforts are under way, including the implementation of horse racing, the change of the system, and the production and introduction of excellent horse racing. Despite the efforts of the horse racing community, various regulations that are not seen in other horse racing countries are pouring out. This is a matter of concern as it is weakening the horse racing community's efforts to advance horse racing. And the fact that the Korean Horse Association's ambitious innovation plan for change and reform is largely stagnating and regretting due to collective selfishness is also holding back the development of horse racing.

The support should also be fully supported and supported. If you gather entrepreneurs and hold programs and events, they are many times more effective than targeting the general public. If these people fall into horseback riding, they may contribute to the development of horseback riding in the form of sponsorship. The grassroots horse riding competitions promoted by the Korean Horse Association also have a good purpose, so if you attract entrepreneurs, you can naturally have a sponsorship to promote your company. In addition, running training, field trips, and programs for entrepreneurs in places like Let's Run Farm Jangsu of the Korean Horse Association or non-riding courses of each local government will be very popular. And they can not only expand the base of horseback riding but also return to reinvestment for the industry.

From the fall semester of this year, Sejong University Graduate School of Industrial Economics will open a master's course in the horse industry for the first time in Korea. I ask many horse industry officials to be interested and participate. I think it will be of great help to the development of the horse industry if the horse industry's active support produces master's course experts. Once again, I ask for your interest and participation. Kim Hak-shin, a professor at Sejong University Graduate School of Industrial Economics, says that in order for the horse industry to develop, the number of expert groups in that field must increase. Professor Kim, who has a love for words, has set up a master's course specializing in the horse industry for the first time in Korea. He wants to contribute to the development of the horse industry by producing experts in the horse industry.

Just as entrepreneurs contributed to the revitalization of golf, entrepreneurs must lead in order to revitalize the consumption culture of horseback riding. It is regrettable that the horse industry is not interested in the riding culture CEO course, which consists of such opinion leaders. It would be nice to 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 to develop and revitalize horseback riding, and that development should be promoted. For a while, I've been expressing such opinions and proposing businesses, but there's no sound coming back. I don't even talk about it anymore because there's no feedback at all. Every semester, there is a two-week experiential horse riding at the Korean Horse Association Equestrian Academy.

As mentioned earlier, don't say anything negative about other horse-riding grounds, but find your own characteristics and have colors. For 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 grounds. How much you service is more important. You can't do everything, so you have to find something special. You can utilize 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, we need to break away from the existing method and focus on customers. I am not an expert or employee in the horse industry, but I listened attentively to people outside the horse industry while I was working as a CEO. It would be embarrassing to say that you are a quasi-professional.

Of course, there was also "shade." The horse industry expressed concerns over the decision to close the Yongsan Cultural Empathy Center, which was embarrassing because successive suicides of managers and executives had nothing to do with it. Recently, related organizations have begun to protest against the operation of a consultative body for direct employment of horse managers. 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, Lee Yang-ho, who was classified as a "government authority" figure after the parliamentary inspection, offered to resign as the government started a reshuffle of heads of state-run organizations, and a public offering for the head of the Korea Horse Association has begun. Analysts say that his actions as a young CEO and communication king have broadened a new horizon in the Korean horse industry.

Whether it is establishing an athlete-turned-instructor or putting a horse in front of them, it is not centered on consumers in terms of facilities and atmosphere. Other leisure sports, including golf, are already breaking away from such aspects of the past. Facilities are also being developed mainly by customers and are being operated with events, programs and communication services, but the horse-riding industry has remained the same in the past. Professor Kim stressed that entrepreneurs must lead the horse-riding consumption culture in order to revitalize the horse-riding consumption culture. Just as entrepreneurs contributed to vitalizing golf, they can play a leading role in vitalizing horse-riding, but it is regrettable that the horse-riding industry is not interested in them at all.

When you go to the horse riding course, you are in a hurry to undermine other horse riding courses, claiming that they are the best and nowhere else. However, it is more like cutting my own flesh. Rather, you should have basic facilities such as changing rooms and showers, and adjust them one by one through a facility or movement line that allows you to see the accompanying people riding. This point is widely utilized in golf, which is called a nearby leisure sport. In the past, golf instructors who taught golf were professional players, pushing and teaching golf customers. However, as golf became increasingly popular and widespread, the golf market grew and competition began. In addition, as consumers' understanding of golf has improved, the industry has now changed more customer-oriented than named.

Because the curriculum can be conducted even 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 of 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 various scholarship benefits and various majors, so it will be good to choose. The semester tuition is also around 3.7 million won, which is cheap. And when you complete your master's course, you can get preferential treatment when you enter Sejong University for your Ph.D. In order for the horse industry to grow and develop, local horse riding courses must have their own grade classification.

Those who will run a business are essential. In the master's course, each person's expertise can be further enhanced through in-depth classes, and after graduation, they can use what they have learned in the field. Market analysis specialized in the 'horse industry', identification of consumer behavior, and various marketing and services will be useful in the field. 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.

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 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. Maybe I'm really talking about something, but I'm thinking of developing the horse industry into a real industry. If the industry tries to develop, the number of expert groups in that field should increase. In that respect, the opening of a graduate master's course specializing in the horse industry is of great significance. The major of horse industry management includes not only professional physical education and daily sports, but also various fields such as rehabilitation, facilities, supplies, fashion, and tourism.

Perhaps our desire and hard work overlapped to win the ticket. When I first met Seachap, I was 9. The horse breed was a Holsteiner, big and reliable horse. He was not big enough to be afraid of the smallest things, so he was afraid of things like mats on the floor or if he thought it was a little strange. When he started to get scared, he couldn't even drag him around. But for an average Holsteiner, he was gentle. That was only for people. He was very aggressive toward other horses, especially Sumal. He was so aggressive that he could throw his front foot up when he ran into him while passing by. He was very nice to people, but he was very rough with horses.

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, she will be able to practice horse racing as well as riding.

First of all, getting a ticket to the Olympics was difficult, but the process of getting a ticket to the Olympics was also difficult. This is because they had to perform well at multiple Grand Prix events rather than performing well in one or two events. Perhaps this is why the athletes training together for the Olympics at the time wondered if advancing to the Olympics could become a reality. The coaches, coaches, and sponsors must have felt the same way at the time. The world wall was too high, and Korean horseback riding was far behind him. And because horseback riding was not only in good condition and the horses had to be in good condition, participating in the Olympics was like a dream.

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. There are only five first-class Jangjeosa in Korea that can find a horse's painful legs only with the sight and sound of a horse walking.

First of all, the biggest concern is how to come up with the budget for next year. The reason why the participation fee for last year's championship was raised from 20,000 won (9.26 U.S. dollars) to 50,000 won (8.31 dollars) was to allow the participation fee to be maintained by adding prize money to outstanding players or horses as we do not have sponsors, but if this trend continues, the participation fee will have to be used as the management fee of the association. And the association has not given any news to the players. There is a need to disclose transparently what is happening at the board of directors or the general meeting of representatives to the players, but it is not seen at all. It is said to be an association for players only in words, but it is still the stage for political fights of old forces, and it is busy attracting people up there.

The livestock industry basically aims to provide safe livestock food to the people in a stable manner. On the other hand, the horse industry aims to improve the quality of life of the people by training and using horses well. The law is different. As a result, this problem itself became Gye-reuk. In our livestock country, there were few concepts on the use of animals, and it was unfamiliar because it was a special part of the horse industry. As the horse industry promotion method cannot solve it, we are looking for a way to cooperate with the horse industry by creating a livestock use industry in the livestock industry. A new government has been established and there is a movement to legislate to solve this problem. If the livestock use industry is applied, it will be an opportunity to recognize problems such as horseback riding facilities as livestock industry, so far, harmony is needed in the legal aspect.

We have created a public horse racing ground near the city, improved the insurance system, promoted stabilization of horse riding management, and launched personal riding insurance late last year and are continuing to do so this year. It is regrettable that the government failed to provide personal insurance in the final stage. The law also has the basis for insurance support, so we are considering how to get involved in the insurance issue. Regarding the installation of horse riding facilities, the problems of whether or not to install large-scale horse riding facilities in the agricultural promotion zone and the inability to build large-scale horse riding facilities in the green belt have not been solved yet. There is also a problem that worsens the management of the horse riding industry due to the inability to use electricity for agriculture.

Horseback riding was the envy and envy of the general public because it was their own sport. Horse racing is a speculative industry rather than horse racing itself, and its negative image has been solidified by the people because it has a strong image of gambling addiction. It is a matter of constant concern, but with the sound horse racing industry, it is quite difficult to create a horseback riding industry that the whole people can enjoy together with sound sports. The Horse Industry Promotion Act was enacted in 2011 and the first five-year comprehensive plan was established in 2012 to conclude last year. Until now, the first comprehensive plan has been established and carried out based on four solutions: building a foundation for the horse industry, strengthening competitiveness, expanding demand for horses,
