TEST008

Having passed the other tests without any problem, the only thing left was the horse riding adaptation test. Jockey Ham Wan-sik, who had never been to Jeju Island even once in his life, saw a horse for the first time that day.They suddenly told me to jump onto the horse and ride it. So I just grabbed the mane and saddle straps and dashed up.Before I knew it, I got on the horse and looked around, only to find that quite a few people, surprisingly, were struggling to climb up. After spending some time on the horses running through the wetlands, I returned, and at the time, Team Leader Jang Il-gi (now head of the Horseback Riding & Jockey Training Activation TF Team), who was watching this scene, asked, “You handle the rebound so smoothly—have you ever ridden a horse?”

During his tenure as head of the Rural Development Administration, he promoted projects such as the development of smart farm technology,the establishment of the sixth industrialization of agriculture,export expansion, and mechanization of field farming, emphasizing that if we had not understood the difficulties faced on the ground, we would not have achieved these accomplishments.Therefore,Without customers, there are no companies,so we must always view everything anew with sincerity from the customer’s perspective,

Kim Yong-geun, the key figure behind the birth of Korea’s first integrated three-horse stable, broke the dominance of jockey Moon Se-young, who had won the top jockey category for five consecutive years, and was selected as the winner of the 19th Horse Industry Grand Prize.Jockey Kim Yong-geun, who debuted in 2006,made a spectacular debut by winning 23 races in his rookie year,and in 2012, he set a new record for most wins in a season by achieving 91 victories.

My dream going forward is, of course, to have a long career as a jockey. I don’t feel that I absolutely have to become a trainer, but I just want to stay healthy and have a long career.It seems that 2016 was a particularly lucky year. I had a good year after meeting the three-horse carriage “Power Blade.” I am also grateful to Majo and the trainer for creating this great opportunity. Even if I always work hard, there will be times when I appear good to horse racing fans and times when I appear bad.

It seems that most of it was accomplished last year. Before riding horses in the 19th division, I had rarely won any horse racing events, but after becoming connected with trainer Kim Young-kwan, I was able to ride good horses and achieve a great deal as a jockey. It is rare to have a jockey win nine times in a single year, and most of what he wanted to achieve was accomplished. If I only have a dream, I want to win the Grand Prix and the President’s Cup. Of course, it won’t be easy, though.

Because there had been two occasions when one or two horses turned away and won without any prior advantage, I thought there was no need to suffer any loss when battling “Otuk Otuk” in a power struggle. If I go to do good deeds, I go; if “Ottukottuki” decides to go out, I tried to give it to it. I planned to follow and check it out, wearing down Otuk Otuk-i’s power, and save my strength to beat Mainstay.But absurdly, after passing the third corner,I had no strength. People say it’s because they don’t go to do good deeds after seeing this,

Actually, it’s not me, though. If I didn’t ride the 19th group horse and the other side’s horse was the 19th group, I desperately wanted to win and tried my best to do so. But in the end, there were many cases of losing to the last of Article 19. So I was misunderstood a lot. Tell Trainer Kim Young-kwan that I’ll win too. He said he was confident he could win, but when it came time to race, he often ended up losing. That much, the 19th-jo horses were strong and tough. It was bad because of those things, but it got its worst when the Ferdidofomeroi” incident broke out.

TEST008

If I had started from the top in the first place, I would have been at a loss for what to do when that inevitable slump came, and I would have wandered around for quite a while.I think he has always posted steady results, but in fact, jockey Ham Wan-sik once experienced the end of a slump. Just when it seemed that jockey Ki-su had established himself to some extent in the world, negative rumors and baseless speculation spread that “jockey Ham Wan-sik is quitting the horse.” The racetrack was a place where the power of words was as absolute as that of horses. Even when he pleaded his innocence, only those around him seemed to know the truth, and his reputation, already at rock bottom, showed no sign of recovering easily.

When I took a year off and came back, I worked even harder, worried that people might have a negative perception of the parts of my past that I had committed.I thought that maybe having a skill different from others would make people give me more rides.So I started creating my own skill using a whip. Changed the whipping. I created something called a “whirlwind whip” that was incredibly powerful and striking. While others hit one strike after another in rapid succession, the whirlwind whip strikes by twisting the arm.

Last year, when Power Blade was on the field, there was no clear opponent. At least there was a horse in the same group called “Ottuk-Ottuki,” a short-distance horse. The key moment is the KRA Cup Mile. There was a difference between being able to win and not being able to. At that time, the horse was in very poor condition. Won even in a bad state. This phrase is truly capable. At the Korean Derby, I was certain that as soon as training began, we would win no matter what. The horse was in excellent condition.

He, who had been like that, started saving money, gave his parents an allowance, and now was even able to gift his friends high-end sneakers.At such a young age, receiving that much money all at once seemed impossible to handle. For no reason, I tense up my throat, and childish thoughts start piling up.At first, I poured money generously into things I was curious about, things I wanted to try, and things I wanted to buy. One day, while I was spending my time recklessly, not realizing how fast it had gone, I suddenly wondered what I was doing. Looking at the heavily crushed footprints on the path he had walked, jockey Ham Wanseok suddenly snapped back to his senses. I recalled the difficult times I had gone through, and the moments when I worked so hard to get here.

Your build is perfect for a kei car." But I didn’t know what a jockey’s job was.I grew up in the countryside of Hampyeong, Jeollanam-do, so I didn’t even know there was horse racing.I wasn’t suited for university either, and when I turned 23, the age when I had to work, I thought I should work. But I wasn’t confident.I’m small-framed and have no formal education, so suddenly I remembered something the owner said to me when I used to work part-time at a PC bang. I started looking up the job of a gisu on the internet.

He broke the dominance of jockey Moon Se-young, who had played a part in Power Blade’s rise to the integrated Triple Crown and had won the Best Jockey category for five consecutive years. In his debut year in 2006, he had a spectacular start by winning 23 games, and in 2012, he set a new record for most wins in a season by recording 91 wins. Starting this year, as the venue shifted from LetsRun Park Pukyong to Seoul, the rivalry match between jockey Moon Se-young and the horse has also been drawing the attention of horse racing fans.

Now, with graduation approaching, it feels a little strange not having the tight schedule and plans I had during my studies. I think I need to continue steady self-development and studying.If there was any special know-how when preparing for the qualifications, it was that I prepared to get familiar with the exams and the testing centers while preparing for both the written and practical parts of all speaking-related certifications. I also visited the practice sites recommended by the professors every vacation to gain practical experience,

Before graduating from high school, I decided to get a job and attended an editorial design academy for six months. After graduating from high school, I worked for nearly two years in advertising agencies and as a freelancer in Seoul and Jeju Island. I became curious about the words I first encountered in Jeju. So I blindly joined the racehorse breeding team at Seong Isidol Ranch and worked there for about two months.While working at Jeju Airport, where the working conditions were good,

As a reserve jockey, Ham Wan-sik, who was literally left hanging in midair, had to earn riding opportunities even more painfully than when he was a rookie. There were times when I took one horse each week, and many days when I had no horse to train and sent it to the ball.But it could not collapse like this. Horse jockey Ham Wan-sik, whose training was rumored to be grueling, stepped forward to ride horse 53, a horse that most jockeys would not dare to challenge. Whether it was a foal or a steep wall horse, we approached training from the very beginning without discrimination. It was the dead of winter. Even as the back of his hand cracked and he felt as if the wind would tear his face apart, he gritted his teeth.

Right now, Samsung is supporting it at the level of running the association, not for major tournaments, but even that is something Samsung has to do. If Samsung doesn’t do it, our equestrian world will be in trouble.Whether it was Samsung and Hanwha, that group, contributing 1.5 billion won a year, or 1.6 billion won, or providing support for the association, whatever it was, there was something that benefited the players. Since equestrianism is not supported by the government,

Students who compete while attending university pursue the dream of definitely trying out for the next Asian Games selection trials, balancing schoolwork and sports.They provided support in every aspect, starting with training camps, while preparing for the Olympics. Because Samsung spent money and provided support for the development of equestrian sports to that extent, we were able to participate in the Olympics and the Asian Games. I could have won a medal too.

Most of the students have been exercising since they were young, and even now, while attending school, they find time to work out.None of the athletic special talents do it like Jung Yura.Among the students I’m teaching right now, there is a friend who is attending university.I go to Hanyang University, and on Mondays and Tuesdays I attend classes all day.So I couldn't come today. I’ll have class tomorrow too, and then I’ll come to work out after 3 p.m.She weighs all the factors about the workouts she wants to do

Not long ago, there was a Chairman’s Cup equestrian competition in Sangju, and at that competition, we held the General Assembly of the Players’ Association.We briefed the players on the contents of the press conference held at the National Assembly and discussed how the Players’Association would respond.We decided to watch the press conference video,correct only the incorrect parts, and express our players’side of the opinions.This is not a matter of fighting.In the evening,the executives gathered to compile and organize the points raised at the general meeting.

Eighty percent said something that was true. The equestrian world plunged into chaos because of one person, Choi Soon-sil. How good a story is to us that we demanded an apology from the president from the equestrian. And I fully understand the content of the press conference they gave about the harm they suffered because of Choi Soon-sil. From their perspective, it must be incredibly unfair that while they were watching the referee, Executive Director Park Won-oh came down and said something,

test008

If Samsung immediately steps down as the chair company, how will the equestrian association be managed right away, and how will next year’s competition be conducted? It makes no sense to demand only Samsung’s resignation without any countermeasures. It is an act that does not consider our equestrian athletes and equestrians. What those people said at the press conference was not as the entire equestrian community, but as the victims. It means it’s not a story that integrates the opinions of every equestrian.
