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.

  • Loan Sharks Face Crackdown
  • Loan Sharks Face Crackdown Report center open for Illegal private loans A temporary reporting center has opened to allow Jeju residents to request relief from financial distress caused by illegal private loans. The hope is that this initiative will prevent similar problems in the future. The provincial government says the center was formed on the back of a recent ruling that lowered the cap on interest rates on private loans from 34.9 percent to 27.9, which is likely to spur more borrowing. The center will be open until next month. Victims can request for relief support or seek financial advice. The province hopes the scheme will help to crackdown on unregistered private loan companies, illegal debt collectors and companies that illegally advertise on behalf of loan sharks. 불법 사금융 피해 신고센터 운영 제주특별자치도가 불법 사금융 피해 구제와 예방을 위해 다음달까지 신고센터를 운영합니다. 제주도는 대부업체 법정 최고금리가 연 34.9%에서 27.9%로 인하되면서 불법 사금융이 성행할 것으로 보고 신고센터를 운영해 피해 접수와 상담을 진행합니다. 주요 신고 대상은 미등록 대부업체와 최고이자 위반 대부업체 불법 채권 추심업체, 불법 대부 광고 업체 등입니다.

  • KCTV: Film Focus
  • It’s the weekend again, and that means Film Focus. Here’s Mike Laidman with what’s new in local theaters. Two polar opposites light up the box office this weekend. The Boy, a horror-mystery, and then Me Before You, a romantic drama about unlikely love. Let’s dive right in and see if either of these offers enough to make a trip to the theatre worth it. [Slug CG] Mike Laidman Welcome to another edition of Film Focus. I’m Mike Laidman. [Slug CG] The Boy (2016, William Brent Bell) A nanny is shocked that her family's boy is actually a doll. Let’s begin with The Boy, a mix of horror, thrills, and mystery about, you guessed it, a boy. But not a real boy, a life-size doll. Greta is a young American woman who takes a job as a nanny in a remote English village. But it isn’t long before she discovers that the family's 8-year-old is a life-sized doll that the parents care for just like a real boy, as a way to cope with the death of their actual son 20 years before. After violating a list of strict rules, a series of disturbing and inexplicable events bring Greta's worst nightmare to life, leading her to believe that the doll is actually alive. The Boy starts out strong, and is downright creepy for the first hour or so, After this, though, it stumbles, and can’t make it to a satisfying conclusion. It’s a perfectly entertaining thriller, although it doesn't break any new ground, despite its unusual premise. [Slug CG] Me Before You (2016, Thea Sharrock) A girl forms a bond with a paralyzed man for whom she cares. Second this week is Me Before You, a tear jerking romantic drama. Adapted from the bestselling novel by Jo Jo Moyes, Me Before You is the story of the unexpected relationship that blossoms between a contented small town Englishwoman and the wealthy, paralyzed Londoner who hires her as his caretaker. While there’s no doubt that this movie will bring anyone with any heart at all to tears, some say that the movie earns those tears through its earnestness and genuosity, others, that it guides you the whole way there. Whatever the case, Me Before You is a sweet, romantic drama that offers some nice contrast to our previous horror/thriller.

  • Samdal Wind Farm sale falls through
  • Samdal Wind Farm sale falls through Thai company opts not to proceed with purchase The controversial sale of the Samdal Wind Farm to a foreign company has fallen through. Despite approval by the provincial wind farm screening committee in March to sell the farm, the provincial government says the sale is no longer possible. One of the main reasons is said to be the pull-out of the Thai company that was to buy it. That happened after representatives of that firm conducted an on-site inspection of the property. Hanshin Energy, the operator of the Samdal Wind Farm, had planned to sell the site to the Thai company on the back of huge operational losses. Opponents to that plan argued that the sale would lead to locally-made profits being sent overseas. 삼달풍력지구 지분 해외매각 '불발' 풍력 이익의 외부 유출 논란이 일었던 삼달풍력지구 지분 해외 매각이 불발됐습니다. 제주특별자치도는 지난 3월 풍력심의위원회를 통과한 삼달풍력 지분 해외 매각 신청에 대해 최종 불가 판정을 내렸습니다. 또 지분 취득을 희망했던 태국 기업이 현장 실사후 투자 의사를 철회한 것으로 알려지면서 매각불가 결정에 결정적인 요인으로 작용했습니다. 삼달풍력 사업자인 한신에너지는 최근 적자난 타개를 위해 태국 기업에 지분의 30%를 매각할 계획이었습니다.
