Article 13 of the Horse Industry Promotion Act stipulates mentally ill patients and addicts of drugs and psychotropic drugs as reasons for disqualification and cancellation of qualifications for horse trainers, funeral workers and rehabilitation horse riding instructors," Rep. Lee Jong-bae said in a partial revision bill of the Act on Promotion of the Horse Industry. The reason for disqualification is to secure a certain level of qualifications for those who work in occupations or business areas that require high ethics or have a significant impact on the health and safety of the general public. If it falls under the reason for disqualification, it should be excluded from certain occupations or business areas and restrict basic rights such as freedom of career choice and economic activities guaranteed by the Constitution, which should be limited to the minimum necessary restrictions.

Despite a number of difficult conditions last year, the quarantine headquarters produced excellent results based on the expertise and know-how accumulated so far. As a case in point, the company achieved the feat of advancing the development of the original technology for foot-and-mouth disease vaccine by one year earlier than originally planned, laying the foundation for the "redemption vaccine sovereignty." In addition, it contributed to the early end of foot-and-mouth disease by developing the world's first simple antigen diagnosis kit for three types of foot-and-mouth disease and applying it to the site.

Many horse racing organizations, which say the Seoul Horse Racing Association's decision to reject the horse racing innovation plan, point out that the integration of mountainous areas, the upper limit of the introduction of foreign horses, and the opening of the horse racing market can cause serious problems that can kill domestic horse production, but the horse racing society overlooks problems that can be derived in the process only for the purpose of entering Part 2. After the emergency meeting, an official from the Seoul Horse Racing Association said, "The result of the emergency meeting was a question of whether the horse racing society would 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, he said, adding, "We have not yet discussed the refusal to vote for the race."

Seoul racers decided against the emergency committee and the horse racing society's coordination plan, and decided to disband the existing emergency committee and form a new emergency committee to respond to the horse racing innovation plan.The final proposal proposed by the Korean Horse Racing Association was adjusted to carry out the horse racing innovation plan to the extent that not only executives and employees of the Korean Horse Racing Association but also related organizations described it as "rags," and added numerous supplementary measures. Nevertheless, the reason why the Seoul Horse Racing Association rejected the final proposal for horse racing innovation is the failure of the Korean Horse Racing Association to present supplementary measures to dispel the concerns of related organizations about the integration of mountain areas and distrust of the implementation system that is deeply rooted in the domestic horse racing world.

Again this year, Korea's agriculture and rural communities are facing major changes and challenges, including expansion of market opening, climate change, and aging population, including FTAs. The huge wave of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, which brings about innovative changes in the national system, society and life as a whole, is also coming in. However, these changes and challenges can be new opportunities depending on how we accept and utilize them. As with the old idiom meaning to ride the wind and overcome the waves, we should not shrink and prepare for the future even more boldly.

Officials of the horse industry are already working hard that much. We present the contents of the standardized instruction plan for use in the pilot school. For the operation of the pilot school, it is necessary to develop a standardized instruction plan that the teacher in charge can teach. In addition, standardized instruction plans are also important as they serve as the basis for teachers to confidently educate students. Currently, each horse riding course where the school horse riding experience is conducted has a different instruction plan, and the more the base of horse riding is expanded in the future, the more likely confusion will occur.

Most of the heads of state 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 society's horse racing innovation plan is repeating what it had previously promised, and that it should receive a memorandum on the implementation of its promise as it is repeating the part that the horse society promised in the past. On the other hand, some said that the goals of all the faces would be the same in terms of developing the horse industry and strengthening the status of the horses, but they demanded that the consultation continue, saying that the goals pursued by the horse society are the same, but that there are only problems in the method.

Dirtbread, used as a racehorse, is a horse designed to run fast by fate. The key to transforming race veterans into horseback riding is a training method that converts them from sprint horses to safe horses. Train them to move the center of gravity from the front to the back. Specific training methods can be learned through training, whether it is rough or rough. Of course, the horse used in professional sports in Japan is the European wormblood. A wormblood is a very different quality and level of horse from a race-retired horse used in daily sports. However, wormblood is difficult to popularize because of its limited number and high price. In order to popularize horseback riding,

People think 'riding is expensive'. There are a lot of people who want to ride horses around, but they can't easily access it because they think it costs a lot of money. Also, because of the prejudice that "horses are dirty," most of the horse riding grounds are outside the country, so transportation is inconvenient. I hope that people's perception of horses will change and become popular as soon as possible because I can't do anything about these parts. Lee Yu-ri passed four certificates unconditionally even on a day when she didn't want to ride a horse with the mindset of "Let's work hard for a year and pass." She says she wants to become an instructor who doubles as a rehabilitation horse and horseback riding after studying more in the United States.

First of all, I'm going to get a job at a general horse racing center and improve my skills. In Korea, rehabilitation horses are not known much and there is too little information. After studying more in the United States, I want to become an instructor who doubles as a rehabilitation horse riding and horseback riding. I'm looking for a job because I'm currently working. In reality, there are limited jobs related to horseback riding in Korea. Horse racing includes assistant teachers, jockeys, and horse managers, and horseback riding is divided into horse riding instructors, rehabilitation horse operators, and horse managers.

On the 10th, the Seoul Horse Racing Association decided to reject the mediation negotiated by the emergency committee and the horse racing society, as the result of the vote showed a slight lead with 174 votes against the plan and 168 votes in favor of it. Prior to the emergency general meeting, Dae-seop, president of the Seoul Horse Racing Association, said, "The horse racing society has unilaterally established a horse racing innovation plan, but it does not reflect the reality beyond acceptance. As a result of the recent consultation with the horse racing society, we decided to ask whether to accept the contents of the consultation, judging that it is difficult to make any further progress. I don't know what the results will be today, but the association will deal with it to prioritize membership friendship and protection of rights and interests," he said.

After going home and going to the hospital for three weeks, I went to school the day before I took the test and practiced only once with my colleagues. And I passed. I think I was lucky. When I took the practical test, I could take the test in Jama, so I took the horse from school and rode it. It would have been difficult if I had been assigned a new horse, but it was a familiar and comfortable horse that I used to ride every day at school, so I gained confidence and reduced the burden of the test. For this reason, the practical test score turned out well.You can't choose one of the most memorable words. I like this and that. I have a lot of good memories, learning this and that from this horse.

Students come to take rehabilitation horse riding classes every Wednesday, and at the beginning of the semester, they applied for volunteers and gained a lot of experience by volunteering next to them. In the second semester of the first year, I prepared a demonstration test for the second rehabilitation horse riding class. At that time, Professor Park Geum-ran and Instructor Song Yeon-hee kindly explained and demonstrated next to me, helping me to do the class myself. As such, the intimacy with the students receiving rehabilitation horse was increased, and the burden of the class decreased, and the worries and tensions about the test decreased.

There is a training course class at the school. Professor Seungjoo Kwon, who is working as an assistant teacher at Let's Run Park Pukyong, taught me. I learned practical skills in the first grade, so I didn't feel pressured about the difference between the two certificates. I learned general horse riding and race magic in advance at school and prepared for the certificate more easily. The second-class life sports instructor practiced obstacles with Professor Chu Ho-geun because he had an obstacle in his practical subject, so he stayed early or late in the morning before taking the test. In the case of training, I went out early in the morning because it was difficult to do racing magic,

They told livestock farmers to abide by the law that only the central government knew without knowing the officials in charge. When establishing a riding facility, the facility should be installed in accordance with the standard of the law and other relevant laws and regulations. Unlike other sports facilities, horse-riding facilities should pay attention to livestock and land-related laws, and should undergo preliminary environmental review by use and area in accordance with the National Land Act, the Special Measures Act on Development Restricted Zones, and the Groundwater Act. Depending on the situation, permission for exclusive use of farmland, building permits, and reporting of construction of structures should also be made.
