Also, the Korea Racing Authority plans to help host competitions held in different regions. The Korean Racing Authority is currently running a website called "Hosfia," and there will be a way to display the contents we provide through the website. It's a very expensive production, so wouldn't it be nice to have a video VOD service for the horseback riding competition? I think manners come first in all sports. At last year's competition in Gumi, they put posters on "Hello First," "Being polite," and "Greeting each other," and worked hard on etiquette education. At every competition, the directors of the association watched them work hard for the competition from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m., and said that the children were struggling first.

Some pointed out that some delegates spent operating expenses recklessly. It was inevitable because there were several changes in the project last year. Originally, the government planned to hold a youth equestrian event in the square in front of Seoul City Hall, but it did not go well. Then, the plan was to change it to a park behind the National Assembly building in Yeouido, Seoul, and push for it again, but it fell through at the end. As the plan was finally changed to hold the event within the Korea Racing Authority, the association decided to conduct the event from the event's progress to the venue's establishment. Earlier, there was a budget that considered the installation of stands and LED lights necessary to hold the event in other places, but it seems that it was a lax operation in the process of implementing it.

In addition, I remember the series that was held under the title of field trip. I always feel this while working here, but the fans seem to be full of misunderstandings and distrust that cannot be helped because they are betting on horse racing. At that time, that was so severe that I desperately wanted to show them the live scene. I hoped that the beads, will, passion, and grievances of the officials I capture could dispel any misunderstanding from the fans. It was a 15-minute broadcast that made a horse or character as the main character, and I think it was a time when I was able to run around a lot and grow up by meeting many people. At that time, there were only announcers in the broadcasting team, and there were no producers, writers, or even editors.

After a meeting to create our own horse racing program, I challenged myself to plan the broadcast for the first time, and the first broadcast I produced was a 15-minute documentary. It is the first work I will never forget. Not long ago, rider Park Tae-jong, who won 2,000 games, decided to make a special program by winning 100 games for the first time in Korean horse racing for a month. I think I followed him from dawn to evening, putting all my efforts and passion into it. Even now, rider Park Tae-jong is very embarrassed during interviews, but at that time, he was shy enough to shoot 100 times to say a word. In the process, we became close to each other and later jockey Park Tae-jong even played pranks in front of the camera.

Due to the urgent news, when I visited the Mabang on the morning of the horse race, a fairly old person shouted, "It's unlucky when a woman comes." It's true that I didn't feel good, but on the other hand, I thought, "This is fun." It was because I thought that this culture could be dispelled carefully according to my efforts. Since then, I think I've been working hard to cover on my feet. As a result, there are times when women's scarcity helps. Conversely, the existence of me was unique to them, and since they are drawing a lot of attention, it seems that it was easier to ask for a report or ask for cooperation. I always think that the basic tendency itself is new than what I always do. In fact, I try a lot of things with good intentions, but I often don't finish them.

First of all, I don't think recruiting members will be a big problem. Whether there are a lot of members at the beginning of the association, I think it will increase as more and more events and businesses are carried out. This is because everyone is interested in training horses. The biggest difficulty is that we must lead the divided horse training field together. Currently, trainers are scattered across the country, and there is a sense of disjunction between horse racing and horseback riding, and there is a concern about how to unite them. So in the first year, I will pay great attention to integration and try to come up with a solution. Training is not divided into horseback riding and horse racing, but horseback riding is in charge of training, and the part that can be done by the horse racing side should be taken care of, but they should go together.

When I came to society, I saw an announcement that the Korean Racing Authority would hire a female announcer. It is true that at that time, I only knew vaguely about horse racing, but I had no idea about the reality. The thought of having to find a job anywhere led me to take a test, and that's how my relationship with horses began. There were not many female employees in the Racing Authority, but the Martha's Area would have died. There were no female riders at the time, and it was literally a golden girl's area. One day was a hot summer day, and I visited the Martha's Area in a broadcast car for coverage. I got off in front of the horse shower in front of the polling station, and the managers were taking a very comfortable shower.

I was very surprised to see that the winner of the Future Contribution Award was confirmed. As I won the grand prize, I had two thoughts. I did not contribute much to the horse industry, but I am grateful for giving me a big award. And on the other hand, I thought that it meant that I should work harder for the development of the horse industry. Thank you. In the second half of last year, the Korean Horse Training Association held a promoter's competition and inaugural general meeting, and recently held an office signboard hanging ceremony in Cheoin-gu, Yongin-si, Gyeonggi-do two to three weeks ago. The goal is to get official approval from the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs by early March. The relevant documents for approval have already been prepared, and we plan to enter the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs with the association's executives around next week.

There are still few, but what they have done cannot be ignored. Now that "female hatred," "female credentials" and "male and female equality" have emerged as hot potatoes, if you look into their lives in the barren place, you may find a clue to the solution. The first person to meet in this special issue is Kim Soo-jin, the leader who brought horse racing into the public. Not only the first female horse racing announcer in Korea, but also the first female auction house, and recently the short track indoor announcer, Kim Soo-jin has walked for the first time. A trailblazer's name will be recorded, but a scar from a thorn bush will remain deep in her body. We met and heard what Mado would have looked like as she had to overcome the difficulties.

In Korea, Lee Ok-rye appeared in 1975 and became the third female jockey in the world and the first in the East, but her fame faded after being cut off for a long time. Following the suicide of a female flag bearer in Pukyong, the sexual harassment of a female manager occurred, and the height of the passport seemed to be dark. However, Lee Shin-young, who overcame such unfavorable factors to become the first female assistant teacher, Kim Hye-sun, the first female jockey to surpass 100 wins, and Lee Geum-ju, who proudly won an invitation race for female overseas riders, are starting to break down prejudice little by little. They are proving with their bodies that they are not exposed to horses due to environmental issues and can show enough competitiveness.

The children also learned that the Student Horse Racing Association works hard for them. These days, most families have only one or two children, so they may lack social skills and communication skills. If education through an animal medium called horses is used, children can be purified and communication skills can be developed. I plan to strengthen the aspect of etiquette education in the future. Also, there is a need for a lot of publicity on the positive aspects of horseback riding. Looking at the youth horse riding club competition last year, children gathered from all over the country. There are cases where buses are sold out from Jindo, Jeollanam-do, and they are flying from Jeju. Regardless of money, there are many areas that are purely used for exercise and educational purposes, but it is regrettable that the media focuses too much on some of the negative aspects of horseback riding.

It is more effective to express horseback riding through video rather than through writing. Based on the video content of the competition, we are planning to build an association's website or use SNS. We will have many youth matches starting this year. We plan to divide the competitions by region and hold many competitions including qualifying matches for the club league. If the video of the competition is broadcast live here, you will be able to see horseback riding competitions in other regions anywhere in the country. The youth competition to be held in Imja Island, Sinan, South Jeolla Province, can be viewed by student horseback riding players in Gangneung, Gangwon Province without having to go there. The student horse riding association will not take the lead in holding the competition, but will take the lead in each regional association.

Even at the Gold Coast I horse auction held in Australia earlier this year, more than half of the staff came out on behalf of the ranch. "It's a wonder that we think it's amazing that women are doing things," said Baramool Stud's female manager, who had an interview with this newspaper at the time. "Strong and not strong, it's not the difference between women and men, it's just the difference in personal ability." "Women in Australia are strong and have a mental strength that is second to none to men," he said. "I've been with horses since I was very young, and when I was a teenager, I jumped into ranching, but I've never had much trouble." Finally, he stressed, "The important thing is the mindset of how well you know horses and how to treat them sincerely.

In the 36th election for the president of the Korea Student Horses Association held on the 6th, Choi Byung-wook, the former chairman of the Korea Student Horses Association, won a second term and will be able to accelerate the consistent business activation of youth and student horseback riding, which began to gain momentum. Chairman Choi Byung-wook, who was elected in a by-election held due to the resignation of his former chairman and began to head the student horseback riding industry, has been considered a suitable person for the head of the student horse riding industry, including former student horse riding association executives, face-to-face association executives, and outside directors of the Korea Horse Racing Association, and has been striving to develop student horseback riding based on his field experience while serving as the president of the student horse riding association for the past two years.

However, there was a time when they were regarded as symbols of men mainly because they were used for pulling, riding, or military use. In particular, after the middle of the Joseon Dynasty, an overly closed Confucian culture took hold in Korea, and the distance between women and horses increased. Furthermore, the rumor that "women in the year of the horse are strong" spread during the Japanese colonial era, and it was abused as a means to suppress the passport, and the goal became deeper. On the other hand, in a country where the horse industry has become more common, horses are being raised as if we are raising pets such as dogs and cats. There is no way there is a distance between horses and women.

As I started, the horse was stiff for a while, but I was able to do a good job because of my good reflexes. In order for this horse to succeed in the future, it will have to induce its racing habit toward preoccupation or pursuit rather than good deeds. As he still has little experience in racing, he feels somewhat lacking, but if he makes up for this, it would be a good enough horse. When he first joined the company and trained, the "Smile Prince" stood out in cardiopulmonary functions more than anything else. I will do my best to grow into a big horse in the future. I need to give permission to my horse condition, but with the current growth rate, I am even considering the Grand Prix in the second half of this year.

Looking at the wins so far, I was proud that he seemed to show his full ability again, even though he had a lot of loan wins. "Smile Prince" is a horse that I bought from a joint purchase. This is my favorite horse when I watched the video of the Breeze, and when I looked at its pedigree, it has the nature of a medium and long-distance race. Personally, I prefer the medium- and long-distance race rather than the short-distance race, so I formed a connection with this horse. If I manage it well and become a member of the prestigious horse race, I think from then on, "Smile Prince" will not be a horse of my own, but a horse of both horse fans and Gwacheon Beol.

Fortunately, the "top of the light" won the championship this time, signaling that it could turn the atmosphere around. I hope that the next horse race will also have a fun horse race where the excellent Seoul horses can compete with the Busan horses and compete with each other. No matter how good the horse is, you cannot win without the will. I think it depends on the will to change even an ordinary horse. I hope the officials will fight to make it rather than to have good words. I hope that this victory will be a turning point because I didn't get as good as I thought when I came to Seoul and I didn't do an interview because I was upset.

I plan to hold a symposium in the first half of this year. First of all, I plan to present the first symposium on topics related to training. And I plan to hold horse massage lectures, which many horse industry workers are very interested in. I think it would be a good idea to have such an opportunity in a situation where people are interested in horse massage, but they do not know how to do it or what it will do. Rather than simply conveying theories, I plan to focus on practical skills that can be done directly. In addition, as horses train, lactic acid accumulates, and they are planning to provide practical education on how this substance works and how it can be applied in the horse industry.

In the past, I was sensitive, such as not easily trusting the rider and running away with excitement, but after working together three times, I felt that this time I was most calm in adapting. I trained comfortably without fighting much and thought I would be able to get good results. There were so many fast words that this competition was developed with the idea that I just needed to get in the early stages, so I don't think there was any tricky part. Going around the four corners, I thought I won, so I even celebrated it, but I accidentally missed it in the process of grinding the whip. If I lost because of this, I would not be able to sleep. I think I won because of the strong will to run on my own and I was able to relax thanks to the elasticity I kept in the beginning.

The story of the youth equestrian team in Imja-do, Sinan, Jeollanam-do, has been broadcasted, but even more so, it should come out.Last year, a competition was held at Daemyung Vivaldi Park in Hongcheon, Gangwon Province to mark a milestone for Korean student horseback riding. It is an international pony competition recognized by the Federation of Horses (FEI). It was held in Daemyung. The competition is scheduled to be held again this year, but the final decision has yet to be made due to the "CSIP" incident. If it is held, this year's competition will be upgraded compared to last year's. Students selected at the competition will be given the opportunity to observe foreign competitions by utilizing the standing army system. Some associations are supporting the competition to provide more opportunities to participate in various overseas competitions.

I want to thank my boss and my staff for their hard work. These days, my grades are good and I've won such good luck, but I'm always trying to take a step further with my determination not to lose my initial motivation. I was in the best condition but I was so nervous that I broke out in a cold sweat when I saw him stubborn during the business trip. I am so glad that the result was good. In the past, I mainly tried to follow the lead, but this time, as the distance increased, I prepared a follow-up strategy. I will challenge all the remaining Queen's Tours as long as I can. As I rode the "Top of Light" for the first time,
