Island Investigations on Club Drugs Last month, a drug trafficking and distribution network involved in selling drugs such as Ecstasy and Ketamine in karaoke bars and foreigner-exclusive clubs in South (경상) Gyeongsang Province was apprehended by the Coast Guard. Amidst a series of drug crimes occurring in clubs and bars nationwide, a similar drug offender has been arrested in Jeju as well. A man in his 30s, identified as Mr. A, who was formerly affiliated with a club, has been arrested last month on suspicion of possessing dozens of Ecstasy pills and consuming them. Jeju District Prosecutor's Office has indicted Mr. A on charges of drug possession and consumption, and they have also announced that they are conducting supplementary investigations into individuals who were involved in drug consumption with him. Ecstasy, a new type of drug, is known as a "club drug" as it is primarily consumed by young people. It has a hallucinogenic effect that is three times stronger than that of methamphetamine. INTERVIEW Jo Gwang-won / Jeju Office, Korean Society of Drug Abuse Ecstasy is known to produce hallucinogenic effects that can induce a significant elevation in mood. It is indeed a drug that is commonly used by young people. The Jeju Provincial Police Agency has stated that this case is unrelated to clubs, and it is difficult to disclose specific details regarding the case, including the specific charges, as the investigation is still ongoing. According to the Korea Customs Service, the amount of newly identified drugs seized last year was 260 kg, which is more than a tenfold increase compared to two years ago. Among them, the quantity of Ecstasy seizures increased by seven times during the same period. With the recent arrest of an Ecstasy drug offender in Jeju, there is growing interest in whether the crimes are linked to related industries, as seen in nationwide cases, rather than being isolated incidents of individual crimes. The investigation results regarding any potential spread of crime to associated sectors have garnered significant attention. 제주에도 클럽 마약?…경찰 수사 확대 지난 달 경남에 있는 노래주점과 외국인 전용 클럽 등에서 엑스터시와 케타민 등 마약류를 판매한 판매책과 유통 조직이 해경에 검거됐습니다. 전국적으로 클럽이나 술집에서 마약 범죄가 잇따르는 가운데 제주에서도 유사 마약 사범이 검거됐습니다. 모 클럽 관계자였던 30대 A 씨가 지난 달 엑스터시 수십 정을 소지하고 투약한 혐의로 구속됐습니다. 제주지검은 A 씨를 마약류 소지와 투약 혐의로 구속 기소했고 함께 투약한 이들에 대해서도 보완 수사를 진행하고 있다고 밝혔습니다. 엑스터시는 필로폰보다 환각 작용이 3배나 큰 신종 마약류로 젊은 층이 주로 투약하면서 일명 클럽용 마약으로도 알려졌습니다. <인터뷰 : 고광언/ 한국마약범죄학회 제주지회장> 엑스터시를 투약하면 환각작용을 일으켜서 기분이 아주 상승되는 효과를 누리는 마약으로 알려지고 있습니다. 젊은 사람들이 많이 이용하는 마약으로 보면 되겠습니다. 제주경찰청은 이번 사건은 클럽과는 무관하다면서도 구체적인 혐의점 등은 수사가 진행 중이여서 밝히기 어렵다고 전했습니다. 지난해 관세청이 적발한 신종 마약류는 260kg으로 2년 전보다 10배 이상 급증했습니다. 이 가운데 엑스터시 적발 물량은 같은 기간 7배나 늘었습니다. 제주에서도 엑스터시 마약 사범이 검거된 가운데 개인의 단순 범죄가 아닌 전국 사례처럼 연관 업종으로 범죄가 퍼졌을지 수사 결과에 관심이 모아지고 있습니다.

  • Rainy season to begin June 19
  • Rainy season to begin June 19 Five days earlier than last year Weather experts say this year’s rainy season will likely begin on June 19th. The Korea Meteorological Administration expects a high-pressure system in the North Pacific will cause the seasonal rain front, now south of Jeju, to begin affecting local conditions Sunday. The start of the monsoon season this year is forecast to be around five days earlier than last year. The KMA says the location and strength of the rain front may change over time. 19일부터 장마 시작…지난해보다 5일 빨라 올해 장마가 지난해보다 닷새 빠른 오는 19일부터 시작될 전망입니다. 기상청은 제주도 남쪽 먼바다에 위치한 장마전선이 북태평양 고기압의 확장으로 오는 19일부터 제주에 영향을 줄 것으로 예상했습니다. 올해 장마가 시작되는 시기는 평년과 비슷하지만 지난해보다는 닷새 가량 늦은 것입니다. 기상청은 장마전선의 위치와 강도는 유동적이기 때문에 앞으로 발표되는 기상정보에 유의해 줄 것을 당부했습니다.

  • Jeju: A to Z (Jeju United FC)
  • This week on Jeju: A to Z, Todd Thacker takes a brief look at Jeju Island’s only professional sports team. The Jeju United Football Club, which in 2010 went to the K-League Classic finals, has been performing well recently at home and away. Jeju Island’s only professional sports team turns 10 this year. And it’s more popular and well-attended than ever. United’s genesis actually harkens back to the 2002 FIFA World Cup. In the run up to this massive sporting event, 10 stadiums were built around Korea, with Seogwipo being the site of Jeju World Cup Stadium. [Slug CG] Stadium modeled after volcanic cones The stadium’s remarkable design is modeled after a Jeju oreum, or volcanic cone, and today it seats just over 35,000 people. [Slug CG] 2006: Bucheon SK becomes Jeju United In 2006 the stadium became home to its first football club, when the former Bucheon SK moved to Jeju and renamed itself Jeju United Football Club. Since then, players and fans have been donning the color orange -- a nod to the Jeju mandarin orange. Though a relatively new organization, United has had some great results. 2010, in particular, saw the team soar in the standings -- under the sharp leadership of coach Park Kyung-hoon (박경훈). The team even reached the season final against FC Seoul, though sadly they couldn’t overcome the powerhouse from the capital. [Slug CG] Todd Thacker United’s next home game is this Saturday, June 18, when it takes on North Gyeongsang’s Pohang Steelers. For more information on the team’s latest schedule and standings in the K-League Classic, refer to their website jeju-utd.com. Todd Thacker KCTV

  • New airport road to be ready by 2018 Three years earlier than initially planned The road construction project around Jeju International Airport is now slated to be completed by the second half of 2018… three years earlier than initially planned. The Jeju City municipal administration has added an extra 10 billion won to the project budget. The road will connect the airport with the 1132 via the Jeju City Traditional Five-Day Market. Initially, the plan was to have the road ready for use by 2021. Jeju City has earmarked 12 billion won to buy the 95,000 square meters of land needed for the project. It has already purchased 27,000 square meters. 제주공항 우회도로 2018년 조기 완공 제주공항 우회도로가 당초 계획보다 3년 빠른 2018년 하반기까지 완공됩니다. 제주시는 제주국제공항에서부터 다호마을, 오일장을 거쳐 지방도 1132호선 즉 평화로를 잇는 도시계획도로 개설 사업비가 추경을 통해 100억원이 반영돼 조기 추진에 탄력을 받게됐다고밝혔습니다. 이에따라 공항 우회도로 개설사업은 당초 2021년에서 2018년 하반기 마무리 될 전망입니다. 제주시는 지금까지 120억원을 투입해 편입토지 9만5천여제곱m 가운데 2만7천여제곱m를 매수했습니다.

  • Proposal finalized for 6th revision of Jeju Special Law
  • Proposal finalized for 6th revision of Jeju Special Law Next step is review by provincial council Local officials have finalized the proposal for the sixth revision of the Jeju Special Law, which is the legal basis for the island’s semi-autonomous status. The proposal includes establishing a public enterprise tentatively called the Global Environmental Capital Support Center, transforming sales of public land into long-term leases, and expanding Jeju’s approval rights over industries from the current one, which is the wind energy industry, to 11. The proposed revision also calls for casinos to pay 20 percent of their earnings in tourism promotion tax. They currently pay ten percent. Finally, it gives the provincial government the right to lift the designations of investment promotion zones if the investments in them fall under 80 percent of the stated target. Officials will hold a briefing on the 28th to outline all 70 or so revisions it is proposing. If approved by the provincial council, the province will submit it to the central government during the second half of the year. 제주특별법 6단계 제도개선 추진 제주특별자치도가 환경보전과 신재생에너지 사업 투자 분야 등에 초점을 맞춰 특별법 제도 개선을 추진합니다. 제주특별법 6단계 제도개선과제안 주요 내용에는 세계환경중심도시지원센터 공기업 설치 운영과 개발사업용 국공유지를 매각에서 장기 임대로 전환하는 방안. 풍력발전에 한정됐던 인허가 권한을 태양광과 연료전지 등 11개 분야로 확대하는 방안 등이 포함됐습니다. 또 카지노 매출액 관광진흥기금 부과율을 10%에서 20%로 상향 조정하고 투자진흥지구 투자이행 실적이 80% 미만일때는 지구 지정을 해제할 수 있는 규정도 신설됐습니다. 제주도는 제도개선과제 70여 건에 대해 오는 28일 도민 설명회를 개최한 뒤 다음달 도의회 동의 절차를 거쳐 하반기 정부에 제출할 계획입니다.
