Unlike the usual rigid atmosphere, the atmosphere of the inauguration ceremony was due to the expectation that he was the first horse leader appointed by the Moon Jae In government, and there were applause during the inauguration speech or loud answers to Chairman Kim Nak-soon's questions. Chairman Kim Nak-soon, who seemed to have recognized the situation in which his inauguration speech had no choice but to be "dignified," shook hands and talked with all employees in front of the lobby of the main building after the inauguration ceremony. "It is true that there were concerns that he was a parachute and a non-professional at the time of the inauguration, but listening to his inauguration speech today, he seems to be gaining strength to overcome our internal distrust and exert positive influence on the outside,

Chairman Kim Nak-soon, who said that even with global trends, generating profits through horse racing is difficult for the future, mentioned the crisis of closing the over-the-counter sales office. "As a top professional manager of the horse industry, I know that there are some concerns and voices of concern," said Chairman Kim Nak-soon, who revealed his career as a professional manager and a scholar of lectures and research on culture and arts at universities and said, "The CEO realized that the ability to present the right direction and solve problems is the first virtue." In particular, based on his experience as an aide to the first union leader of the National Assembly when the Standing Committee of the Labor Relations Commission was first established at the 13th National Assembly on June 15, 1988, he said,

He also said that as soon as he took office, he would quickly start to grasp the work of each department. In fact, he reportedly received reports on his work by department on the day of his inauguration, last weekend, and the 24th. Most welcome of all, he emphasized that "we will ensure that all possible tasks can be carried out in a transparent manner" with the recognition that "the Korean Racing Authority is neither an intelligence agency nor an institution that requires special security." He also said that it is the "shortcut to restoring trust to the public." Analysts say that the remarks were made with the deterioration of the image of the Korean horse racing society and the horse industry, which was triggered by former chairmen cutting off or avoiding some media following the advice (?) of some followers.

Before restoring trust to the public, he said that the first priority was to create an organizational culture that trusted each other, and that he promised to do so because the most important value in practicing this is fairness in personnel management as the head of the Korean Racing Authority. Chairman Kim Nak-soon said, "We will protect the trust of the organization through fair personnel management and deploy personnel in the right place according to their capabilities," and stressed, "Fair personnel management will be the trademark of Kim Nak-soon. Please keep an eye on him." Chairman Kim Nak-soon's inaugural address shows that he had studied enough about pending issues such as the horse racing industry and the organization of the Korean Racing Authority before he took office as the head of the Korean Racing Authority.

He emphasized that the best path and the focus of the Korean Horse Association is to return to an institution that is faithful to the purpose of its establishment, he said, "That path is the responsibility that the state has given us and the true form of the Korean Horse Association that the people expect." He also said that generating profits through horse racing is not an end, but a means. Instead of maximizing profit generation, publicity and sharing should now come first, and he said, "Our community will strive to become a healthy institution that expects the highest productivity in the best condition." In particular, since the establishment of infrastructure to revitalize horse racing is also an important value, he said, "We believe that not only horse racing but also the horse racing industry needs to grow together to complete the development of the horse industry in a true sense.

As with most inaugurations, he mentioned the weather and said, "The cold start is not so much the public's view of the current Korean Racing Authority as the weather," adding, "I am truly afraid of the public's strict order to be reborn with a great sense of responsibility." Although he was branded as the head of a state-run corporation subject to public distrust, criticism, and deep-rooted evil, he said he would not hold people accountable for any reason. It was not the problem of the entire Korean Racing Authority, but the problem was the manager who claimed to be a puppet and some of his followers who used it as a tool for his standing. However, not everyone should be proud." He also said, "We should be ashamed of ourselves for not being brave enough to tell the wrong part, and we should bow down to the public to apologize and ask for forgiveness.

With the Korean Racing Authority showing a slowdown in growth and continuous strengthening of regulations by the Board of Audit and Inspection, the implementation of the Industrial Promotion Act at the end of last year allowed a breakthrough. If 2011 is the year of the end of the industry, 2012 will be the year of establishing a foundation for fostering the horse industry to achieve mid- to long-term goals. To this end, 2012 will be the year of establishing a horse industry promotion strategy, statistical and actual condition survey of the horse industry, and design of horse-related qualification systems, based on research results such as horse industry promotion strategies, horse industry statistics and actual condition surveys, and horse-related qualification system, the establishment of a horse riding foundation, and the establishment of a breeding foundation for passenger horses.

In addition, 26.7 billion won was allocated to improve customer service, including the promotion of the Seoul Horse Racing Park park project, the remodeling of the over-the-counter sales office and the Jeju Ferris wheel, and 5 billion won was reflected as a source of funds for the establishment of a social enterprise for the creation of jobs for low-income families. With the importance of finding new businesses more prominent than ever due to the global horse racing industry's aging and the recent slowdown in horse racing sales, the Korean Horse Association plans to work hard to increase the sustainability of companies based on sound finances in consideration of large-scale investment projects that have already been confirmed for spending, such as the Yeongcheon Horse Racing Park and the opening of a new over-the-counter sales office.

It is known that not only the operators but also the relevant ministries opposed to the right to consult in advance to strengthen the Board's control over the speculative industry. In addition, the regulation that requires the head of the ministry in charge of the speculative industry to recommend the committee members will be maintained. The Korea Racing Authority announced its business budget and horse industry promotion plan for 2012 at a press briefing held at the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries at the end of last year. The main content is that the total income of the Korean Racing Authority will exceed 8 trillion won for the first time in history, and that it will focus on strengthening fiscal soundness in consideration of large-scale investment projects, while creating new growth engines and strengthening corporate social responsibility by breaking away from horse racing-oriented business structures.

There were a total of six amendments to some laws related to the audit committee, including three Han Sun-kyo members, one Kim Dong-cheol, one Ahn Sang-soo member, and one Jeong Jang-seon member. In the meantime, the Moon Defense Council has reviewed the proposed legal amendment and adjusted the six amendments as an alternative to the chairman of the Moon Defense Council, and finally decided at the end of last year. Despite the launch of the audit committee, the spread of illegal gambling due to the strengthening of regulations in the legal gambling industry has raised concerns from all walks of life, and the revised bill is supposed to give the audit committee the authority to crack down. However, it is pointed out that the revised bill can be transformed into a strengthening of authority along with the expansion of the organization of the audit committee rather than an active crackdown on illegal gambling.

Unfortunately, the death of two horse racing managers in Pukyong led to public opinion that the job insecurity, excessive competition systems, and poor working conditions of horse racing workers should be improved. In the process, the managers of Seoul drove them to the dichotomy logic that they worked less and took more salaries because employment was stable and competitiveness was low. The history of Seoul and Pukyong (except Jeju) is different, and the working experience and average age of horse racing workers are not discussed at all, and the media reported the logic of horse racing that Seoul is high cost, low efficiency, and Pukyong is low cost and high efficiency, and as a result, even some horse racing officials and even some horse racing fans are driving public opinion as pigs who distributed Seoul with the same logic.

Efforts to revive the horse industry, which has yet to materialize the second five-year plan for industrial development, are more important than ever. In May 2015, the company held the inaugural general meeting of the Horse Industry National Forum, a private cooperation organization that encompasses all walks of life, saying that the industry should develop into the 6th industry in a balanced way along with the horse racing industry. However, as this has drifted amid the indifference of related organizations, I hope that the inauguration of the new horse society will be an opportunity to open a new horizon for the horse industry. In 2017, the Korean Society of Animal Resources and Science changed its name to the Korean Society of Animal Science and is becoming an active participant in the development of livestock in Korea.

Professor Ahn pointed out that the problems of the domestic horse industry are the lack of response to horse racing, which is recognized as a gambling industry, and the lack of management of private horse farms, and the lack of horse racing license holders. In particular, he stressed the need to revive Korean horse racing, which is in crisis due to excessive regulations, saying, "The development of the horse racing industry should be the foundation and foundation of the horse industry." He then argued that the government should set two goals: ① change the perception of the horse industry, ② establish and expand the horse industry infrastructure, and to promote the creation and industrialization of new markets by growing the horse industry into a complex cultural industry. To this end, the government should establish horse-related infrastructure, strengthen R&D, and cultivate professional manpower.

In addition, the installation of a 117ha (about 350,000 pyeong) hose park in Hwaong district in Gyeonggi Province will be carried out in earnest to build infrastructure for the horse industry. The hose park will be created as part of the Eco Farmland project, which is being promoted in collaboration with Gyeonggi Province, Hwaseong City, Suwon Livestock Cooperative and Nongwoo Bio, and the site will feature a racing horse recreation training facility, horse riding and horse riding academy, and rehabilitation horse riding center. The hose park has currently completed the basic planning service and aims to open in the second half of 2015 after designing civil engineering for infrastructure in 2012. Expectations are rising that 2012 will be a major turning point for Korean horse racing as innovative changes in horse society are expected along with the full-fledged promotion of the Horse Industry Promotion Act.

Members of the Seoul Horse Racing Association, who have led such changes and innovations in Korean horse racing, have devoted themselves to discovering better racehorses and maintaining their responsibilities, roles, and core values despite stagnant horse sales and prize money. In addition, in September, they took the lead in practicing the Nobleys Oblige as an opponent by opening the Seoul Hyojeong School, the country's first visually impaired children's school, which is operated under the names of current and strongest horse, Choi Kang-siler, Clean Up Joy, and Mighty Gem. In particular, the tradition of donating in the name of Ama has established itself as a more beautiful and valuable donation culture because it is a history that has been made with horse racing fans over the past decade.
