Rehabilitation horseback riding needs to be promoted, but there are limitations, which is regrettable. Also, in my view, it is appropriate to introduce health insurance for therapeutic riding. Physical therapy is allowed, and it makes no sense that horseback riding rehabilitation through verbal instruction is not covered by health insurance. While preparing my master’s thesis, I learned for the first time that Italy has health insurance, but it is unfortunate that it is not yet available under our circumstances.

He also promoted a nationwide horse-riding campaign, encouraged executives to ride horses, and gathered information on the status of riding centers across the country, thereby spreading a nationwide horse-riding boom. I hope the policy continues to be inherited and developed, but there is some regret that its form has since changed or been altered.The Korea Racing Authority should run a horseback riding healing center and a program that can provide therapeutic treatment through horses for people with disabilities.

Personally, I was born in the Year of the Horse.It’s as if the horse-born came to the horse company. It is also a great honor for me to have joined as a high school graduate employee, attended both university and graduate school, and even served as vice president.I served as the head of the Healing Center for three years and eight months, and since January 2016 have been active as president of the Masadong Alumni Association, spending about 40 years in the horse industry.We are married, and our children have grown up;

Gradually, at first, some of the horses that have completed the departure inspection are allowed in. The next step is to allow only horses that have passed the 100% departure inspection to enter. As the next step, some that passed the driving inspection come in, and then only horses that passed 100% come in. They prepared a system where if they passed on the day of joining, they would come in as racehorse masseurs, and if they failed, they would be sent home again. The trained and tamed horses are those that have passed at least the minimum driving inspection.

Unlike Thoroughbred, where production, training, and development are systematized, they are being put into racing at some point simply because they have reached an age.Because they come in without proper training, their expertise is lacking and accidents happen frequently.Even the horses’ running level drops. The ability is good, but the words and the deviation are also severe.Overall, the quality of the race is declining. Jeju horse racing is broadcast in Seoul and Busan, but there were also complaints from customers saying,

As far as I know, it first began between 2011 and 2012, and if the first five years were spent creating 500 equestrian venues and training specialized equestrian personnel as part of the initial project, it seems that the five-year plan for the future development of equestrianism is currently at a standstill.Therefore, I think we need to transform the drifting project into a virtuous cycle structure that can encompass everything, including the sales market. In particular, it is judged that building a large dedicated equestrian stadium is the most important.

Last year it was held on the lawn course, and this year it took place at the Sonopellice Equestrian Club. We also wanted to introduce and show Sono Felice Riding Club to the public, and it is true that last year, due to inconveniences with the practice arena and other facilities, we were unable to provide the horses with the best possible environment. This year, we played in a dedicated field so that the horses could compete in their best condition. Although it lacked the beauty and style of a grass field, competing in a dedicated venue allowed for a focused and compact match,

Compared to baseball, which has risen to become one of Korea’s representative sports, the popularization of equestrianism may sound like a distant prospect. However, during the second edition, the audience’s enthusiastic response and attention witnessed on site convinced us that the popularization of equestrianism was not far off, and it became the driving force behind organizing “May On Eohos 2017.” Going forward, Daemyung Group intends to lead efforts to popularize equestrianism by combining the diverse cultures loved

In 2012, when his affiliated stable opened, he was recruited as team leader and has served there; he has been recognized by colleagues and seniors and juniors for his strong sense of responsibility and leadership.The suicide note was found at the lodging about 80 meters away from where he died,

On the 23rd, a roundtable meeting for discussions on fostering the horse industry in Jangheung County, hosted by the Korea Racing Authority, was held in the Korea Racing Authority’s main conference room.Present at the meeting were Chairman Hyun Myung-kwan of the Korea Racing Authority, Vice Chairman Lee Sang-young of the Korea Racing Authority, Assemblyman Hwang Ju-hong (New Politics Alliance for Democracy, Agriculture, Forestry, Livestock, Food, and Maritime Affairs Committee), Jangheung County Governor Kim Seong, and Chairman of the Jangheung County Council Kwak Tae-soo, among others, who engaged in in-depth discussions on development plans to foster Jangheung’s horse industry.

However, due to the mechanization of equipment, its role is changing into a different form. In that regard, the Army Academy’s mounted unit has sufficient justification for its necessity. In addition to providing equestrian training for cadets, it also carries symbolic significance as a descendant of the nomadic peoples. It will also help strengthen the military’s image as a trusted force through public-oriented external activities. I intend to attend as many events as possible, and I will also work hard to build an image of the military as a reliable force loved by the people.

On the 22nd, the Seoul Racecourse Trainers Association and the Jockey Association held a signing ceremony for a “Compliance Agreement for Fair Horse Racing” at Cheonmajung in LetsRun Park. Through this agreement, the Seoul Racecourse Trainers Association and the Jockey Association declared their commitment to strengthening mutual communication between trainers and jockeys and to practicing fair horse racing through active self-regulation efforts. At the same time, they decided to work toward creating a trustworthy horse racing culture for customers and the public by signing and implementing an ethics agreement between trainers and jockeys.At this Ethics Convention for the Practice of Fair Horse Racing, the Seoul Trainers Association was represented by Chairman Kim Jeom-o, Director Park Jong-gon, Director Kim Dong-gyun, and Secretary-General Ha Jong-su, while the Jockey Association was represented by Chairman Lee Dong-guk, Vice Chairman Lee Geum-ju, Director Moon Se-young, and Secretary-General Kim Ki-seon.

I will actively support the many concerns and opinions shared here today so that they can translate into practical and tangible results,” and urged, “Please do not hesitate to provide the Korea Racing Authority with support for the development of Jangheung County’s horse industry.”Meanwhile, the Korea Racing Authority stated that it plans to implement improvement measures including establishing a cooperative medical care system through a registration system for private veterinarians at each hub, providing clinical training for large animal veterinarians to promote emergency horse medical personnel, and expanding the installation of riding horse breeding support centers for horses, in response to difficulties such as the absence of a specialized horse veterinarian in the area of Jangheung County’s horse producers and the inconvenience of breeding support due to the long distance of Jangsu Ranch.

When I first saw the horse, I didn’t think it would be this big. The reason I wanted to come here was that I applied because they said I could manage horses and see them in person. When I first read the words, the feeling was that it was interesting. At first, I was scared when I first rode a horse, but after riding it about twice, it was fine. Right now I’ve been busy preparing for the General Lee Yong-mun Cup equestrian competition and other things, and I don’t have much time, but if I have the time later, I’d like to try learning horseback riding.

Since middle school facilities are used for the test, we support horseback riding experience activities as a form of mutual cooperation. We provide support for the experience program ten times during the first semester.Sungshin Women’s University provides 15 weeks of education per semester. It is said to be a popular subject, with a capacity of 20 students but a competition rate of 100 to 1. Every week, Sungshin Women’s University students come to the Korea Military Academy equestrian stadium to conduct training.

In implementing policies, I hope they adopt policies that consider the responsibilities of a public enterprise, rather than focusing on the immediate issue of incoming funds. If they continue to confront residents and the association’s image worsens, it won’t be good for the staff either, so I hope the Korea Racing Authority will think it through. Would even the top elites, the Korea Racing Authority employees, feel more attached if the company were healthy and upright. Wouldn’t having conflict be something the employees don’t want either.

Nothing has actually changed since the new chairman of the Korea Racing Authority arrived. There is nothing fundamentally changed, and there is no conversation either. Sometimes the staff came by and just said hello. Since it’s a public enterprise, once a new Minister of Agriculture and Forestry is appointed, the chairman of the Korea Racing Authority will likely change as well, so it probably can’t avoid being affected.Actually, I didn’t know that the Korea Racing Authority held horse racing in our country. When I thought of the Korea Racing Authority,

He was taken down after being accused of defamation by the police, but I was angry that he said that to people like us, whom he had never met before, in a way that was not reasonable.Protecting the living environment and the educational environment is not a matter of ruling or opposition parties, or of progressives and conservatives. There are pastors, priests, and nuns who participate in the exercise with us, as well as the principals and teachers from the Yongsan area, but they are very conservative people.

Developing the horseback riding population is the most important part. We will promote grassroots equestrian competitions centered on self-governing clubs and local units to foster positive feedback through a quality evaluation system and to encourage participation by holding many youth equestrian competitions. We also plan to include in the second comprehensive plan the expansion of programs for safe horseback riding, such as the riding ability system.Regarding the horse racing industry, there are also parts concerning the construction

Before the meeting began, KRA Chairman Hyun Myung-kwan said, “Jangheung County is the first local government to sign an MOU with the KRA and hold a meeting to discuss matters related to the development of the horse industry.” He added, “We look forward to hearing valuable suggestions from Jangheung County for fostering the horse industry.”At the meeting, a variety of opinions were discussed regarding the Korea Racing Authority and Jangheung County’s efforts to promote the horse industry.After the meeting, County Governor Kim Seong said, “There are many concerns about the direction of development in the horse industry, which is being promoted as a key project of Jangheung County,” adding, “The Korea Racing Authority’s proposal for the development of Jangheung County’s horse industry was a great help.” He said, “We ask for your continued interest and support for Jangheung County’s horse industry going forward.”

To this end, both organizations will actively promote self-regulatory activities centered on ethics committee members to strengthen the ethical awareness of their members and workers.This year, Chairman Kim Ki-cheon, who turned 60, celebrated a double milestone. In May, the eldest son got married, followed by the expansion and relocation of the Holsmate Equestrian Club, the birth of five foals, and Gyeonggi Province being designated as the third special zone. Chairman Kim Ki-chun said, “I can only speak,” but everyone who knows understands how great his hidden efforts and contributions were before Gyeonggi Province was designated a special zone.Chairman Kim Ki-chun, who began as an equestrian, now has his interest extended throughout the horse industry.

Regarding image improvement, the horse industry is providing the public with opportunities to experience horses, and the Korea Racing Authority is consulting with and promoting sound measures to shed the gambling image associated with horse racing.Although it is still being improved, I think its main points are enhancing the quality of life for citizens, expanding the public nature of equestrianism, supporting vulnerable groups, and improving urban residents’ access to equestrian activities. On the other hand,

Going forward, the 2nd Comprehensive Plan will expand public equestrian facilities and experience riding programs that take into consideration low-income groups and socially vulnerable people. A large public equestrian center will be built near the city center so that socially disadvantaged groups who cannot access the horse industry can use it. We are making every effort to transform it into an affordable and easily accessible facility that anyone in the country can enjoy.Improving promotional awareness is a very important part.

Some civic groups and members of the opposition committee, who have been persistently demanding the withdrawal of the reopening of the Yongsan off-track betting center, are attempting to continuously tarnish the Korea Racing Authority.On the morning of the 29th, civic groups including People’s Solidarity for Participatory Democracy and the Committee for the Expulsion of the Yongsan Virtual Horse Racing and Gambling Establishment held a press conference at People’s Solidarity for Participatory Democracy’s Areumdri Hall in Jongno-gu, Seoul, and announced plans to report to the National Tax Service over suspicions that the Korea Racing Authority is engaging in large-scale, organized tax evasion.
