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.

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.

In addition, there are cases where players with good horses participate in competitions and produce excellent records and sell them at high prices. It cannot be said uniformly, and it varies greatly. It is like a stock. When horses are young, they are bought relatively cheaply, grown and sold again, and as this process is repeated, farmers also make some profit. If a horse is successful, it can generate even greater profits. Auctions for selling young horses are also often held, and horses circulate and the economy.

As the Internet expands its influence in all areas of life, it is impossible to clearly manage the legal and illegal areas.
