[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Park Dong-wook] On the 4th, Uljin-gun, Gyeongbuk announced that Kim Yong-seok, the representative of Baegam Ranch in Hakgok-ri, Pyeonghae-eup, received the honor of winning the Rural Leaders Award (Livestock category), which is held annually by the Rural Leaders Gyeongbuk Federation.

The 'Rural Leaders Award' is decided through document screening and on-site evaluation by professional officials, based on indicators such as farm scale, technology development, organizational contribution, and public activities in four fields (vegetables, fruit trees, special crops, livestock) among over 20,000 members from 23 cities and counties in Gyeongbuk Province.

Kim Yong-seok shared his award sentiment, saying, "I take the words of American thinker Emerson as my true life success philosophy: 'To leave the place better than it was before you were born, and to make even one person's life happier because you are alive now, that is true success.'

Jeon Eun-woo, director of the Uljin-gun Agricultural Technology Center, said about the awardee, "He is always humble and passionate about transferring breeding technology to neighboring Korean cattle farms and supplying excellent Korean cattle, making him a model for young livestock farmers in Uljin-gun."
