The Let's Run Foundation is a social contribution foundation established to create a society that fulfills social responsibilities as a public company and lives together by raising funds from donations from the Korean Horse Association and donations from executives and employees. It was established on March 18, 2014. Previously, the Korean Horse Association carried out various donations and social return activities in the social contribution team, but the establishment was promoted due to the need for a more active and professional foundation. The purpose of the foundation is to contribute to revitalizing society as a whole, promoting people's welfare, and enhancing the status of the horse industry by supporting job creation projects, talent development projects, cultural prosperity projects, welfare promotion projects for the vulnerable, and horse industry image improvement projects.

It is intended to revive the spirit that participation in horse racing betting is for donations. When categorizing the types of social contribution projects, there are three stages: one stage where donations are limited, two stages where volunteering is made along with donations, and three stages: donation and volunteer participation and social value creation. Our Let's Run Foundation is currently in the process of transitioning to the third stage. Based on the Korean Horse Association and related organizations, the Let's Run Foundation will continue its active social contribution program using horses and through talent donation by horse officials. A "better tomorrow with horses" is never a dream. The Let's Run Foundation thinks that a world where words make all people happy is tomorrow. Personally, I think I am extremely lucky to have the opportunity to work as the secretary-general.

The existence of the Let's Run Foundation itself is possible because of customers of horse racing. I thought that horse racing customers should come to the forefront in all fields. The Let's Run Foundation also wants to make it clear that the donation agent is the horse racing customer. Korean horse racing has undergone tremendous changes in a short period of time in terms of culture, and is still changing to a positive aspect. As the customer level has been upgraded, it is now necessary to inform horse racing customers as the subject who provides financial resources for social contribution projects, not gamblers. Since the Korean Horse Association, which is the parent company, is a public enterprise, the Let's Run Foundation's policy is set by the national government and the mission of the Korean Horse Association. However, the first horse racing in Korea was born to raise funds to encourage horse racing, and participants participated in horse racing to donate.

The Let's Run Foundation, which celebrated its second anniversary on March 18, recruited Kim Hak-shin, former head of the Seoul Regional Headquarters, as the general secretary through a public offering at the end of February. Kim Hak-shin, a 59-year-old native of Suncheon, Jeollanam-do, graduated from the Department of Public Administration at Seoul City University and joined the Korean Horse Association in 1986.

During the 2014 Gyeonggi Province Governor's Cup, I dressed up in special clothes and won, so I dressed up in purple again this time to cheer for Pinot Noir. This horse is named after my favorite wine, and I should go for a cup of Pinot Noir with the people who cheered for me today. I didn't expect much, but I think I got a good result because I had consistently experienced racing. The Dong-A Ilbo had a short distance, so I was worried that I might be catching up. I saw that this race has strength because it is a long distance of 2,000M, and I even expected to win the championship. I am happy to win for two consecutive games, and I hope it has brought a little joy to the horse racing fans. Due to the slow initial flow, I decided that the jockey might be able to take the lead and displayed a moving development.

Kim Jong-kook, head of the Korea Racing Authority, graduated from the University of Seoul Department of Public Administration, received a master's degree from the University of Seoul Business School, and is currently studying for a doctorate in sports and cultural welfare policy at the Seoul National University of Science and Technology. Thanks to Pinnoir, I'm on the podium again, and I feel happy and excited every time. I was very worried that I would catch up because I hit the middle of the race. It is true that he was turning six this year. The Dong-A Ilbo thought the race was over in an advantageous way in terms of experience because of bad weather, but I am very happy that he ran so well today. I plan to manage the horse as much as possible and think about the next race.

The government should allow legal online, which can also regulate the policy direction of the gambling industry, while easing offline sales regulations to increase competitiveness with illegality by giving it an opportunity to transform into a complex cultural space." As the Internet expands its influence in all areas of life, it is impossible to clearly manage the legal and illegal areas. "The gambling industry should be managed in a more sound direction, and we should continue to race for win-win efforts for joint development through shared growth among gambling industries while preventing indiscriminate spread." Director Kim, who is deeply interested in sports and cultural welfare policy studies, said, "We intend to continue to appeal the position of the horse racing industry to the academic world with various papers to the effect that horse racing sales should be maintained stably for the development of the horse industry, and that should be accompanied by fair regulation by the audit committee."

The reason for regulating the gambling industry started from the logic that it should be regulated because the gambling addiction rate is higher than that of foreign countries, but it is not reasonable to apply the gambling prevalence rate as a standard for setting the total sales volume by industry due to conflicting opinions among Korean scholars," Kim said in the conclusion. "The disproportionate policy to increase the prevalence rate in the total sales policy is asymmetric, so the excessive regulation should be eased in terms of equity." In this research paper, Kim advised that the horse industry should seek self-rescue measures as the gambling industry market is being reorganized into Toto and Lottery due to excessive regulations by the audit committee, and that legal gambling industries should seek a win-win plan toward a common goal of expanding the legal market against illegal markets.

On the other hand, Korea seems to have a fierce battle for seats from the beginning and takes spurt quickly. The most common story I heard in Australia was that it had a good start. When entering the gate, the concentration is at its peak, and it is true that it was easier than others to solve the early development. If you leave the gate, you can ride it in all weather conditions according to the tendency of the horse. It may be a virtue for all riders, but I think it is a strength that they have been honing their control ability when driving and catching them on horseback. When it was in Australia, morning training was not as much as in Korea. Instead, there were actual races almost every day. Of course, if you keep riding for 10 days without a day off, it will be difficult, but even if it is, you will have to endure it if it is a necessary part to live in Korea.

In Australian age, he has been riding a horse since the age of 16. In fact, I had never ridden a horse before, but my father was a jockey in Australia, so I was lucky to get a chance. I loved sports and had athleticism, so I was able to adapt quickly. Above all, riding a horse was so fun and happy. Then I became a job. Last season, I won the honor of winning the GI competition twice, including the South Australian Oaks. I think my hard work, thinking that it is the same whether it is a big competition or a small competition, resulted in good results. I don't feel nervous about big competitions or anything, and I try to keep calm. In Melbourne, I was in the top 10 of the multi-victory rankings.

While pursuing the four strategic goals, it is transforming into a social contribution company that creates a better world as a citizen of a company that forms a country and society by breaking away from the business of giving benefits. It also launched a representative center for social contribution using the core materials of the company called horses. Here, there are horse riding healing centers and pro bono centers. Another important thing is that it has started to solve youth problems that reflect the situation of the times. There were job creation for 140 people as a youth overseas job search project, and 17 "Let's Run Dream Centers" were opened through collaboration with the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family and local governments, winning the Minister of Gender Equality and Family Award for out-of-school youth programs.

In fact, Melbourne is a horse racing area recognized by the whole area, so I am proud of it, and I am grateful that the results follow as much as I have worked hard. I don't think you should be complacent in order to grow. I had no fear in my decision because I thought that gaining new experiences in various places was the way to grow me. Also, I heard that the Korean horse racing market is growing. I think it is a good opportunity because I think there are many things to learn and experience in growing horse racing.Basically, the beginning is very fierce in Korea. In the end, this is also due to the main difference, but in the case of Australia, since it is mainly grass, it is a method of following the horse as much as possible to build up power in the beginning and then sprinting at the last minute.

However, there is a wide gap between the horse racing society, which has no choice but to push for a horse racing innovation plan despite the lack of agreement with related organizations to finalize and announce the 2015 horse racing implementation plan, and those who believe that damage to domestic production farms and economic losses to their owners are inevitable, raising concerns over the possible disruption of horse racing from the new year. In the new year, controversy over tyranny of the current race has spread like a trend. Following Cho Hyun-ah, former vice president of Korean Air, who was arrested for the "nut return" incident, the endless controversy over the tyranny of the boss, which led to the recent kneeling of a parking part-time student, and the dismissal of all new employees of the social commerce Wemakep, shows a dark side of our society that is anxious to hold "hegemony."

After the emergency meeting, an official from the Seoul Horse Racing Association said, "The result of the emergency meeting was to ask whether we will accept the horse racing innovation adjustment plan. As soon as the emergency committee is newly established, we will try to re-consult with the horse racing society," and on whether to suspend horse racing, he said, "We have not yet had any discussions about refusing to vote for the candidacy. Seoul's opponents also said they want to avoid the extreme act of refusing to vote for the candidacy," adding that they will continue to consult with the horse racing society. Both the horse racing society, which is running an emergency meeting, and the horse racing association, which has already received a power of attorney for the candidacy vote, are in agreement to avoid the worst case of collateralizing horse racing fans.

I don't know what the result will be today, but the association will deal with it to prioritize membership friendship and protection of rights and interests," he said. Before the vote for the side, the opponents who attended the emergency general meeting expressed their opinions, but as various differences were expressed, the emergency general meeting was not easy to proceed. Most of the opponents who participated in the emergency general meeting pointed out that the pros-and-cons vote itself was contradictory, and criticized that the horse society's approach and attitude were wrong, regardless of whether it was right or wrong. In addition, some argued that the horse racing innovation plan of the horse racing society is repeating what it had previously promised, and that it should receive a memorandum on the implementation of its promise as it is repeating what the horse racing society promised in the past.
