[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Du-yeol] The complex play space "Rookie Zone" at LetsRun Park Busan·Gyeongnam, where you can enjoy a unique and affordable outing, has been renovated for the first time in six years since its opening.

The Rookie Zone consists of ▲a beginner lecture "Beginner Classroom" ▲a "Multi Zone" where various contents can be enjoyed for free ▲a "Cheering Zone" for watching and cheering on horse racing, and visitors can use it by receiving an admission bracelet at the entrance gate.

The beginner classroom lectures are held every 30 minutes from 11:00 AM to 4:30 PM in a separate lecture room within the Rookie Zone.

In the beginner classroom, knowledge necessary for horse racing is taught, such as how to choose good horses, types of betting, and how to place bets.

After attending the beginner classroom lecture, if you succeed in betting at the betting experience, there is also an event where you receive a special souvenir unique to LetsRun Park Busan·Gyeongnam.

In the Multi Zone, you can enjoy one of various contents for free, including ▲Dalgona candy picking ▲four-cut instant photos "Rookie Photo" ▲making Shrinkles ▲making grip talks ▲making soap.

The horse racing viewing seats in the Cheering Zone are the "Grandstand" outdoor seats connected to the Rookie Zone, and among all seats, they are the royal seats closest to the finish line.

From the royal seats, you can fully feel the speed of the racehorses reaching up to 60 km/h, as well as the tension, excitement, and cheers of the racetrack.

The Rookie Zone operates every Saturday and Sunday from 11:30 AM to 5:00 PM. It is available to visitors who wish to newly sign up for the mobile betting application "Electronic Card" within the park.
