JK Horse Training Ground
The farm is located near Eonyang, so it takes about 10 minutes to the next convenience store and about 15 minutes to the next bus station. Since Eonyang is between Busan and Ulsan, you can visit both cities from here and there are also the Yeongnam Alps which you can reach in 15 minutes by foot, if you are interested in hiking. We also have a golfpark nearby and an Amethyst cave, too. And if you are interested in riding and we have enough time we could also teach you.
The owner is Jinkyung and has been riding horses since she was 4 years old and went overseas for training and for international competitions. The workers are not fluent in English, but really nice and helpful, so there will be no problems even though there might be misunderstandings.

About the experience in: Eonyang, South Korea
Hong Kong (SAR)
The farm and her dedicated team are really hard-working people who works round the clock for horses. Main duties of volunteers include cleaning the farm stables, refilling water buckets and feeding horses. Mind you, it is tough labor work, but you will be rewarded with hearty local cuisine and a serene neighbourhood. I also got 1-2 the farm riding lessons per week when staff is free from chores and the farm-riding courses for local people. That said, if your main purpose is to meet other volunteers or have the farm riding classes every day, this is not something you should sign up for. the farm lover, go for it

From this experience you were able to try a lot of local Korean cuisine and be surrounded by the Korean language. The work load is as expected, ranging from filling waters and cleaning up poop. With a lovely hiking area with lots of gorgeous views, the nature here really is stunning. However if you don't speak Korean and there are no other volunteers, the experience can be quite lonely. If you like being by yourself a lot and want to improve your Korean, this is the right place to go.

This is a great experience for nature and animal lovers! I got the chance to ride and loved hanging out with the dogs every day. Jin Kyung is a soft-hearted person who clearly cares a lot about her animals and her volunteers. She always made sure I had everything I needed. The work was exactly as is described on the profile. I had basically no prior experience with this kind of work but the staff were happy to show me everything I needed to know!

I'm not going to lie it is very hard work, you have to love animals and it's mostly caring for them, not riding them. I got to help during school classes with the horses which was awesome and developed a very intimate relationship with the team. I learned a lot about Korean culture and cuisine. But this is not an experience if you are in Korea for sightseeing this is an experience to help animals and people and to really get to know the culture. If you're looking for a free ride, this is not the place.

Where to start... I started working mornings and afternoons and after a few days I was tired, we had no free time for sightseeing or going to the city, after deciding to take 2-3 afternoon off Jinkyung's attitude towards me changed. At first, he seemed to care about me, but then changed, more than once she spoke to me without respect and never “please” or “thank you”. Also, there was a tense atmosphere with the Korean group and volunteers. i could write many more things… so I don't recommend this place. they need to change a lot of things to make it a pleasant place to go.
