Kang Seok-dae, president of the Seoul Racing Authority who gave a congratulatory speech, said, "Chairman Hong Dae-yu has contributed greatly to the establishment of today's Jockey Association, and he has made great efforts for the rights and interests of the Jockey Association while serving as vice chairman of the Jockey Association. Korea's remarkable growth in horse racing, which ranks seventh in sales in the world, is the result of all horse racing officials putting their utmost efforts into their roles. Amid the global economic crisis, the horse racing industry is also going through painful times. We need to recognize the global trend and usher in a new era of leap forward.

Many things have improved thanks to this."I think Hong Dae-yu, the new chairman, has a lot of work to do," he said."As Hong Dae-yu, the new chairman, said, Korean horse racing is just the beginning. Part 2 is a sign that Korean horse racing and Korean racehorses should start to become world-class. Without a start, nothing can be achieved. Korean racing is difficult.There is a lot of work to do. It is possible when all related organizations are together in one direction.There may be difficulties and conflicts in going one direction,but I think today's inauguration ceremony is to join forces toward one goal of developing into a global horse racing. Let's work together in the future.

From now on, I am standing with a strong will to challenge myself in the history of horse racing. It is difficult to predict how the entry into part 2, the implementation of international racing, and the export of race conditions will affect Korean horse racing. However, it is clear that everyone should make an effort to make it positive. Korean horse racing should start from now on. I propose to start from this moment on. I will start from myself and the association first with a will. I will also do my best as the final producer of horse racing products, from small to small. It is not enough and insignificant, but I will do my best to deal with any bad circumstances.

We will not compromise with illegality such as the operation of associations that are individually converted into shrines and manipulation of electors' representatives. We cannot live by principles, but we must not deviate from them. I may not be a good person, but I should not be self-interested. We must have the spirit of serving. Chairman Kim Ki-cheon who met at the Hollsmate Equestrian Club. The womb blood and half-ringer foals born last year were growing fast. Chairman Kim Ki-cheon seemed happiest when he was with his horses. Immediately after his election, Kim Ki-cheon, the new chairman of the Gyeonggi Mal Industry Development Council, is sitting in the chair and conducting the inaugural general meeting.

That's why I was misunderstood a lot. I told assistant teacher Kim Young-kwan that I would win. He said he was confident about winning, but when he ran in the race, he often lost. That's how hard and strong the horses in Article 19 were. They were bad because of those things, but they were the worst when the "Freddie Formoroy" incident broke out.At the time, he performed well on the "Freddie-Pomeroy" and was confident because he won a horse race. All horses in Group 19 had never ridden before. He was also well aware of their habits. As I introduced a "main stay" that pre-empts and pre-recruited "Otuk-tuk-tuk-tuk," I clearly knew that they would engage in a fight for good deeds. I thought that I didn't have to suffer a loss by fighting against "Otuk-tuk-tuk" because I had two experiences of winning the title without having to go through good deeds.

If councils are launched on their own across the country, we can also expect national organizations. It is time for the horse industry to launch a large organization like the pig and dairy associations. I remember when Gyeonggi-do lawmakers were planning the budget, they said that other associations came and lined up, but I couldn't see the horse industry. It started with Gyeonggi-do Province and the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation because there was no central point when individuals came forward. The budget is now desirable to allow the provincial government and the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation to provide assets for self-restraint by officially subsidizing and supporting the funds,

It may be a funnier process than a special occasion. I graduated from high school when I was 20 years old and worked part-time at a PC room while attending university. At that time, the owner of the PC room said, "Your physique is perfect for jockey." But I didn't know the job of jockey. Growing up in Hampyeong, Jeollanam-do, I didn't even know there was horse racing. I didn't fit my college aptitude, and when I turned 23 when I had to work, I thought I should work. But I wasn't confident. Due to my small physique and lack of learning, I suddenly remembered what the boss said when I worked part-time at an internet cafe. I started to look for a job as a jockey on the Internet. I accidentally found out the homepage of the Jockey Association. It was around November 2003, but the recruitment was made in a hurry the following year. I didn't recognize it at the time at the recommendation of the boss, but I remembered it later, so I entered the candidate list at a late age.

Developed countries such as France and Germany have separate horseback riding insurance and individuals have to get insurance. Since it is practically difficult to change the insurance system right away, the provincial government, Dongbu Hwase, and the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation signed a business agreement to solve the problem. It is a process of adjusting specific matters such as insurance fees. On April 18, the first meeting of the council will be held, and the issue of horse riding insurance will be addressed first as a major issue. I personally think it would be good for our council to conduct verification and encourage participation in the horse industry-related support project that Gyeonggi Province is doing.

This position is different from that of the chairman of the sports community. While serving as the chairman of the Gyeonggi-do Horse Racing Association, few people in the sports community were interested in the development of the horse industry. Now that the council has officially been established, I can't help but think about what to do for the rights and interests of the people who run the horse racing course and those who raise horses. As I was elected this time, I think I really have to do my job and do well as I have done so far. I really want to find what I have to do and what I have to do. I always think about whether there is anything I can do together to solve and help people in need.

His relationship with Chairman Kim Ki-cheon began that way. To him, the recognition of the current problem soon led to a solution and an alternative search, and now the entire horse industry is openly discussing and solving the problem. Four years later, he has been elected as the new chairman of the Horse Industry Cooperative, or the Gyeonggi Horse Industry Development Council, which he advocated in the midst of his dream. On March 31, he met with Chairman Kim Ki-cheon at Holsmate Horse Racing Club and interviewed him. He was in Japan for a Korean-Japanese community horseback riding competition. He was contacted the day before the general meeting and returned home late in the evening.

What I remember in particular is that he talked about the reality of the horse riding industry to the reporter. Although it is now beyond the level of "public debate" and the bill is about to be revised, few people at the time spoke directly about the pending issues inside. He had a firm perception and philosophy about the horse industry as a whole, which is a rare case in the horse riding industry. As such, he was ahead of his time, and he had an eye to see the big picture and forest of finding the entire horse industry policy and alternatives, not just staying in horseback riding. The limitations of the riding club's self-reliance structure, conflicts in related bills, insurance and safety issues were mentioned,

He suggested the motto "Let's take a step ahead and look far and do our best" as his work 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 has fallen on your feet, but it is also important to look at the direction the organization should go out in the mid to long term." Asked why he communicated through social media, he stressed that "communication is basically what must be accompanied in order to do field-oriented management," he said, "It is important to listen to communication well, but it is also important to inform it properly." He also said, "We will try not to miss the sound of customers and listen to difficulties and opinions and reflect them in our work."

He also introduced his career working in the planning department, including the planning and budget officer, the agricultural policy director, and the head of the planning department during his public service career, which began in 1983, and disclosed an anecdote about establishing comprehensive measures for the development of farming and fishing villages between 1989 and 1990. Chairman Lee Yang-ho said that agriculture was a very difficult time due to the Uruguay Round negotiations at the time, but 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, farmers, organizations and the government have also introduced a self-funded system to study the promotion of consumption by creating funds.

Starting with a review of mediation grants and leisure taxes, it is approached through two research questions. First, "The effect of contributing to the financing of adjustment grants will be greater than that of local governments with racetracks and over-the-counter sales offices." Second, "The leisure tax will affect the allocation of adjustment grants by local governments that have not been installed as well as local governments with racetracks and over-the-counter sales offices." Through an analysis of the impact of leisure tax on the creation of adjustment grants, Kim describes the contribution of leisure tax to the financial creation of adjustment grants in Gyeonggi-do,

Although local governments are willing to foster the horse industry, the importance of leisure tax is very great as it becomes the main source of local governments, but no one knows the importance of it. This paper discussed that since the local government's mediation grants are the source of leisure tax, curbing horse racing with electronic cards would reduce sales, reduce leisure tax, and eventually reduce the mediation grants distributed to local governments. I wanted to emphasize that local governments should jointly seek ways to overcome the introduction of electronic cards, as the introduction of electronic cards would reduce horse racing sales by more than 60 percent.

The system is well established, and the people are culturally respected. Naturally, horse racing also has a good perception. This did not happen all of a sudden one day. It must have been a natural result because the two sides have been engaged in respectable activities, such as social contributions, for a long time. In order to create such an environment in Korea, the efforts of many stakeholders, including the implementation body, should be made. Of course. Even though he has been retired for a while, he has the same body shape as he was when he was a racehorse and runs around with full of energy. Assistant teacher Yoo Byung-bok even said with a smile that he might have made him retire for nothing.

First of all, donation itself was something that I had been doing steadily because I was away from each other and engaged in business activities. I think that the vitalization of donations is an essential part of our society. It is my belief that we must take responsibility for social contribution from the standpoint of running a company with the help of the people. I hope you can see that donating in the name of a racehorse is an extension of your affection for horses. It was so unfortunate that the outstanding famous horse made a brilliant achievement on the racetrack, but the name becomes blurred after retirement and later erased from memory. Thankfully, I thought that the racehorse, which came to me and gave me great joy and happiness,

Producers are much more professional in the field, and the depth of knowledge is considerable. Of course, after debuting face to face in the first year, I finished the year with only two wins, and the next year I only won three. Not to mention the winning rate. Maybe that was what stimulated me. Should I say that it stimulated the desire to win? I think trying to find an answer is something I have done all my life and something I have to continue to do. At the time, I received a lot of advice from the so-called senior people who spoke well, asked a lot of questions here and there, and tried to strengthen my inner room. As a result, I kept facing horses and naturally tried to understand the horses themselves. At some point,

When I was working as a seedling, I loved its lineage so much that I went to the ranch and was shocked to see the horse because it was so small and ugly. It was a moment that broke all the prejudice that the seedling had to be big and handsome. The traits that the seedling inherited to Jama were diverse, but the "Dixy Land Band" in particular inherited high mental power. Plie' was also very popular in that regard, and went to the auction with the thought that it might not be possible to buy it. Fortunately, at the time, 'Plier' was suffering from deforestation, and as the US economy rapidly stagnated that year, the auction price was also frozen and plunged.

Representative Yoon So-ha said, "I fully agree with the purpose of the anti-graft law and acknowledge the necessity, but concerns that damage will occur to farmers and fishermen who grow Korean beef, ginseng, fruits, and yellow corvina in Korea even before the enforcement of the anti-graft law became a reality. We have proposed this law to keep the purpose of the anti-graft law alive and to minimize the damage that the agricultural, livestock and fisheries sectors will unintentionally suffer."In response to a question on how to reflect 30 years of public service and experience in promoting agriculture in management principles, he revealed the principle of "promoting work centered on high school, prefecture, and government" during his tenure as the head of the Agricultural Development Administration.

Representative Yoon So-ha held a public hearing on the law on September 21 last year and listened to the opinions of agricultural and fishery producers.

Just in time, I heard that Isidol Ranch also had 'Ecton Park' in mind, and I actively agreed to it and entered Korea. I didn't say that I had a stake. However, all the seed horses I have introduced since 'Ecton Park' came in are friends that I brought in with a combination with 'Ecton Park' in mind. Little Fork' was purchased after visiting the U.S. ranch in person. At that time, 'Value Play', the brother-in-law of 'Little Fork' was doing well in Seoul, so there was considerable interest in 'Little Fork' in the production world. However, the amount was considerable as it was popular, and I made the bold investment. I bought 'Flier' at an auction. 'Dixieland Band', the boomer of 'Flier'
