Despite the severe slump in sales and internal issues at LetsRun Park Busan-Gyeongnam, the inland domestic horse auction held on May 29 seems to have avoided the worst-case scenario thanks to the generous interest of everyone involved, including the public, association executives, and trainers, and we extend our heartfelt gratitude to all who participated.As producers, we are greatly encouraged and have high expectations regarding the newly appointed chairman of the Korea Racing Authority’s strong emphasis on fostering the horse industry.

However, as the effect of sales growth remained inconclusive despite the Korea Racing Authority's efforts, they ended up expanding the number of broadcast races to compensate for the revenue shortfall of Jeju Race Park.Since everything regarding horses is fully entrusted to the trainer, the owner only has the business and doesn’t seem to have any special responsibilities. What I have felt through our encounters so far is that there is clearly potential for growth from a business perspective, and I sense that it embodies all aspects of life—fulfillment, joy, and hardship. However, the reality in our country is that people still associate mazoo with horse racing, so it is difficult to mention the word to acquaintances.

Complex, where racehorse producers will build international competitiveness and, through exemplary collaboration, secure a foothold for the production of high-quality domestic racehorses and ensure sustainable growth; it must be developed as a successful model case.If possible, we plan to lead the development of both the first and second halves of the year. The Korea Racing Authority is investing a substantial budget to build the LetsRun Farm’s Longevity Hill and indoor circuit,

Noting that the public interest function of agriculture had not yet been enshrined in the Constitution, he stated that the tasks of establishing the foundation for national agriculture and formulating and developing a new policy philosophy would be assigned, adding, “I ask everyone to unite their efforts for the stable development of our agriculture and the resolution of issues facing farmers and rural areas, and I will devote myself wholeheartedly to fulfilling my duties.”New CEO Jung Myung-chae previously served as a member

I also trust them because I have seen that the stable’s unity is remarkable, with everyone working together as one family to manage the horses.I got the impression that Assistant Trainer Kim was studying bloodlines even at the cost of sleep. He is a trainer who always carries information about horses during business trips to purchase them and makes great efforts to discover quality horses. Also, judging by how thoroughly he manages the stable, one can't help but trust him as a dedicated trainer. Trainer Kim Nam-jung is currently the president of the Trainers’ Association, and he is a trainer who earns trust through his actions rather than words—so much so that he has entrusted a prized horse called the 'Myeongun Emperor" to him.

It is a 'dongteja'. The Moma of 'Dongteuja' is 'Maremaid,' who produced the last of the 'Dongteuja' and has since passed away. Therefore, they hope that Dongteja will carry on the Moma lineage. To that end, I hope he goes out on the Queens Tour and achieves good results to earn the title of a Seawal. Since it is a point spread bet, the downside is the limited range of choices for horse racing events or special races.It is the 'King of Fate." Currently, he is managed by trainer Kim Nam-jung, who has a 100 million won contract, and I have high hopes; I think he will be eligible to compete in major races by next year. Also, "President"

My criterion for choosing a teaching assistant is to choose one who works hard. I believe that the only way to succeed in all matters of horse excavation, development, and ability improvement is through effort. When I first chose Team 4, I did so at the recommendation of those around me, but the results were very satisfying. As the number of horses gradually increased, I thought I needed a partner to compete with, so I considered 19 horses, and I waited a long time to bring in a horse for 19. I’m happy that we are currently delivering results that satisfy both the 4th and 19th groups.

They stated that the one task they see as important is to persuade and fight the National Assembly and the government to raise the domestic horse racing refund rate from 73%, which they say is the worst in the world, to at least the Japanese level of 80%.Representative Kim Byung hong said,If the horse racing refund rate is raised, the issues raised by the union can be addressed,adding,Leave the union’s matters to the union,and I hope the KCTU will actively engage in the struggle to increase the refund rate.

Maju is in the position of an investor as a business entity. The horses need to be managed by experts. Considering these two points, I think if Ma-ju does not trust the trainer, their relationship will feel awkward and no positive outcome can be expected. For a while, I struggled with why I couldn’t speak my mind, but now that I’ve let go of those worries, I actually feel lighter and more at ease.It was a horse called 'High Best,” and it was the first horse I purchased through a direct acquaintance. I retired due to degenerative arthritis, but this horse is so memorable that I would call it my first love.

While serving as vice president of the Korea Rural Economic Institute, he participated in a forum on improving the horse racing tax system for the development of the agriculture and livestock industries, and served as an advisor to the Korea Rural Horse Industry Association. When CEO Jung earned his Ph.D. in agricultural economics in Germany in the 1980s, he was introduced to the horse industry; in a 2016 interview with the Horse Industry Journal, he emphasized the establishment of item-specific cooperatives,

First, they sponsored me through the Steven Equestrian Club, and after hearing my situation, they also helped me through K-Toto. Ges Korea provided in-kind sponsorship to make it easier for me to work out.In Europe, the horse industry plays such an industrial role that there is a saying, “cash circulates because of horses.” There is a cycle, such as producing and training young horses to sell, or buying them when they are young and raising them into fine horses for resale.

Looking at the horses competing in Korea, it is clear that not much has changed from the past. Still, when the domestic equestrian scene was doing well, we would buy horses in Europe and bring in quality ones. However, the horse that ran in the 2014 Asian Games is still running without being rotated. I think that if companies and others provide support, the conversation will circulate and a better equestrian environment and culture will be created.Of course. It's an important point: if the association is not operating normally,

CEO Kim Jong-su introduced high-quality processed lotus root products that differentiate them from existing ones, and in particular, the 'steamed frozen lotus root' has received great consumer response for being free of additives and easy to prepare.

Even after more than 20 years in the horse auction market, the recent sharp decline in the success rate and average winning bid price has brought racehorse breeding farms to their greatest crisis, so we hope for a firm breakthrough through improvements to the racing system suited to Korean horse racing and the establishment of long-term policies.While each related organization, including the horse racing implementing bodies, will face its own challenges, I hope that by coming together with a spirit of mutual cooperation,

Despite difficult circumstances, which has strived to realize the goals of advancing the horse industry and fostering a culture of progressive horse racing, has reached its 20th anniversary,is celebrating its 5th anniversary.On behalf of all members,congratulations.I am grateful that the efforts made so far have enabled the parallel development of the horse industry, including horse racing and equestrian activities, and that led to the enactment of the Horse Industry Promotion Act,

Industrial growth and funding through horse racing are the driving forces behind the development of the horse industry; if its very essence is shaken, the horse industry loses its roots. To address the internal and external crises facing Korean horse racing, the first priority must be establishing a clear identity for the sport, and we must all remember that true change and innovation are only possible through communication and coexistence.In this rapidly changing environment, we hope that 'Racing Media' will fulfill its role as a platform for communication

Although many pressing issues in the horse racing industry remain to be resolved, I believe that these positive achievements will continue and help us overcome the current crisis.As is well known, the horse racing industry is also facing both domestic and international crises and periods of upheaval amid the Fourth Industrial Revolution and rapidly changing global circumstances. Korean horse racing has also faced an era of transformation. Above all, for the horse industry to become a new engine
