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.

  • Party leaders visit Jeju in last-minute effort to secure votes
  • Party leaders visit Jeju in last-minute effort to secure votes Analysts predicting close races on the island Leaders of both the ruling and opposition parties visited Jeju Monday as part of last-minute efforts to secure votes in Wednesday’s elections. Saenuri Party chairman Kim Moo-sung began his Jeju visit by joining Seogwipo candidate Kang Ji-yong for some campaign activities. He then traveled north to Jeju City to help bolster support for his party’s two candidates here ? Bu Sang-il and Yang Chi-seok. Head of the main opposition Minjoo Party Kim Jong-in also arrived in Jeju Monday to help Jeju’s liberal candidates Kang Chang-il, Oh Young-hoon, and Wi Seong-gon. 300 lawmakers will be elected nationwide Wednesday to four-year terms in the National Assembly. Jeju City has two representatives and Seogwipo, one. Analysts are predicting very close races in all three of Jeju’s electoral districts. D-2, 여·야 대표 제주서 동시에 지지호소 4.13 총선을 이틀 앞두고 여야 대표들이 동시에 제주를 찾아 지원 유세를 벌이고 있습니다. 새누리당 김무성 대표는 오늘 오후 제주에 도착한 후 서귀포 강지용 후보를 시작으로 부상일. 양치석 후보의 유세를 지원하며 유권자들의 지지를 호소하고 있습니다. 또 더불어민주당 김종인 위원장 역시 오늘 오후 제주에 도착해 내일 오전까지 제주에 머물며 강창일.오영훈.위성곤 후보의 지원유세를 통해 한표를 부탁하고 있습니다. 이처럼 두 대표가 선거 막바지에 제주를 방문한데에는 3개 선거구 모두 초접전 양상을 보이면서 지지층 결집은 물론 부동층의 향배가 큰 변수로 작용할 것으로 예상되기 때문으로 분석되고 있습니다.

  • KCTV: ‘More Incentive Travel Needed’
  • Critics say local officials aren’t doing enough to convince foreign companies to choose Jeju as a destination for incentive travel. As Joseph Kim now reports, that segment of the tourism market is very profitable. [slug] Wolmido, Incheon (March 28) On (월미도)Wolmido Culture Street in (인천)Incheon, a total of 4,500 Chinese tourists enjoyed a Korean "Chi-Mek" party on March 28th. Chi is short for chicken and Mek is short for (맥주) mekju, meaning beer in the Korean language. For the event, more than 550 tables were set up on the street. The participants were company officials and employees from China's Aolan International Beauty Group, a cosmetics and health supplements company based in the Chinese province of Guangzhou. 6000 employees in total were able to come to Korea on a special vacation awarded to them from the company. Their visits to Korea added over 27 billion won to the economy. [slug] 2011 visit by Baojian employees boosted economy by \91b Some 11,000 employees from China's Baojian Group- a healthcare products company-were rewarded with a trip to Jeju in September 2011. Their visits were a boon for the island economy to the tune of about 91 billion won. The last visit of a mega incentive tourist group was a group of 17,000 Chinese Amway employees back in 2014 who stayed a short 8 hours on the island. There have not been any other mega incentive tourist groups since then. [slug] Competition heating up over incentive travel The island succeeded in bringing in a major incentive group from a Japanese firm, but the provincial office made a misstep of releasing the news without prior consultation with the company. The trip is currently on the brink of cancellation. On average, a tourist on incentive travels spends 2.7 times that of an individual tourist's budget. In addition, incentive tours are a great means of local promotion. Given this, many cities and provinces are strategically and aggressively initiating incentive tour programs. INTERVIEW Kim Eui-keun / Professor, Jeju International University The great benefit to the economy is that the companies pay all travel expenses, meaning they tend to spend more money than individual tourists. So, cities and provinces are offering a wider variety of tour programs and bolstering their tourism infrastructure, as well. <인터뷰 : 김의근/제주국제대학교 교수> "인센티브 투어의 장점은 본인이 개인이 요금을 내는 게 아니라 기업이 대신 내기 때문에 방문할 때 개인 소비 지출이 굉장히 크게 증가합니다. 지역 경제적 파급효과가 앞다퉈 인센티브 투어를 유치하려고 하고 있습니다." Busan won a bid against Singapore and Taiwan in successfully luring 12,000 tourists from a multinational skin care company based in China. And a total of 15,000 employees of the Chinese branch of Amway will visit (순천) Suncheon via cruise ship next year.

  • Jeju Hyanggyo Daeseongjeon to become national treasure
  • Jeju Hyanggyo Daeseongjeon to become national treasure ‘Unique example of original Confucian architecture’ The Cultural Heritage Administration has announced that it plans to register a part of the (제주향교) Jeju Hyanggyo Confucian School and Shrine as a National Treasure. The (대성전) Daeseongjeon is one of the shrine’s two main halls. It houses ancestral tablets and the administration says it is valuable because much of its Confucian architecture remains in its original form and therefore needs state-level protection. After a month-long notice period, the Daeseongjeon will be named a State-Designated Cultural Property and National Treasure (국가지정문화재 보물). '제주향교 대성전' 보물 지정 예고 제주의 유교건축 문화유산인 '제주향교 대성전'이 국가지정문화재 보물로 지정될 전망입니다. 문화재청은 제주향교 대성전을 국가지정문화재 보물로 지정 예고하면서 제주향교 대성전은 창건 이건 이후 현 위치에서 큰 변형 없이 원래의 모습을 유지하고 있다고 밝혔습니다. 또한 대성전은 제주도 유교건축의 특성을 잘 담고 있어 체계적인 보호가 필요하다고 덧붙였습니다. 이에따라 제주향교 대성전에 대해 30일간의 예고 기간 동안 의견을 수렴한 뒤 문화재위원회 심의를 거쳐 보물로 지정할 예정입니다.

  • Real estate speculators fined, sentenced to prison
  • Real estate speculators fined, sentenced to prison Found guilty of illegally altering forestland Real estate speculators at an agricultural corporation have been fined and sentenced to prison for illegally leveling out forestland and selling it at four times the original price. Jeju District Court sentenced an auditor of the corporation, surnamed Lee, to a year and six months behind bars and a fine of 40 million won for violating the Forest Management Law. The CEO, surnamed Kim, was sentenced to one year in prison and 20 million won in fines, and the corporation itself was separately slapped with an additional 20-million-won fine. Judge (정도성) Jeong Do-seong said in a statement that the heavy penalty was seen as a necessary step to preserve Jeju’s natural environment. He also said it was a clear case of real estate speculation, given the timing of the transaction, which was made when the construction of Jeju’s second airport was announced. The two defendants bought forestland last year in Hado-ri, Gujwa-eup under the company’s name for about 27,000 won per square meter. They then began illegally clearing all of the pine trees from it in October, before reselling it for as much as 121,000 won per square meter. 부동산 투기 사범에 실형· 벌금형 선고 토지를 구매한 후 불법으로 평탄화작업을 벌이고 이를 분할해 최대 4배에 이르는 가격에 판매한 업자에게 실형이 선고됐습니다. 제주지방법원 형사 3단독 정도성 부장판사는 산지관리법 위반 혐의로 기소된 모 농업회사법인의 감사인 이 모 피고인에게 징역 1년 6월의 실형과 함께 벌금 4천만원을 선고했습니다. 또 법인 대표 김 모 피고인에게 징역 1년과 벌금 2000만원을, 이들의 법인에 별도로 2천만원의 벌금형을 내렸습니다. 정 판사는 판결문에서 제주도의 환경을 보전하기 위해 불법 산지전용 행위에 대한 엄중한 처벌이 필요하다며 제2공항 입지 발표시점에 발생한 점과 토지매매 방법 등을 감안할 때 전문적이고 지가상승 목적이 분명해 이같이 선고한다고 판시했습니다. 이들은 지난해 10월부터 구좌읍 하도리 지역의 소나무를 허가없이 제거한 후 평탄화 작업을 벌였고3.3 제곱미터당 9만원에 구입한 토지를 최고 40만원에 매도한 혐의로 기소됐습니다.

  • KCTV: Film Focus
  • It’s nearly the weekend again and that means it’s time for Film Focus. Here’s Todd Thacker with two new movies opening in local theaters. This week’s cinematic offerings actually share a number of themes. Both set are set in deserts. They depict the strength of the human spirit. And they’re based on real-life events. So let’s jump right in with Werner Herzog’s Queen of the Desert and Patricia Riggen’s The 33. [Slug CG] Todd Thacker Welcome to Film Focus. I’m Todd Thacker. [Slug CG] Queen of the Desert (2015, Werner Herzog) Explorer Gertrude Bell’s life at the dawn of the 20th century. First up, Queen of the Desert. Based on the amazing life story of British writer and explorer Gertrude Bell, played by Nicole Kidman, the film offers up a love story mixed in with adventure. Set prior and during World War 1, and the breakup of the Ottoman Empire, we learn of this woman’s remarkable achievements and role in the making of the Middle East as we know it today. Though playing a bit loose with the historical facts, Herzog’s script does project a sense of scale and the imperial policy making. The film is also beautifully shot, and as you might expect, the desert comes to life on the screen. However, much of the casting, acting and even the soundtrack simply fall flat. James Franco as one of Bell’s love interests, and Robert Pattinson at T.E. Lawrence, in particular, seem completely wrong for their roles. Most critics panned the film, from the point of view of a historical drama, Queen of the Desert does deliver just enough to make it worth your while. [Slug CG] The 33 (2015, Patricia Riggen) Trapped Chilean miners struggle to survive 69 days underground. You might remember the dramatic rescue of the Chilean miners who emerged to the surface on live TV in front of hundreds of millions of people. The 33 is their story. The film alternates between three plot points: the isolation of the miners some 2,300 feet below the earth, the tent city populated by their families struggling to maintain hope, and Chilean government officials struggling with the politics and public relations of a rescue mission. Each of these three stories interweaves with a main character... Antonio Banderas as Mario, the miner’s de facto leader. Juliette Binoche as the sister of one of the trapped miners, and Rodrigo Santoro as the Chilean Minister of Mining, who pushes for the costly rescue mission. Overall, the film does a good job and remarkably doesn’t feel like a TV movie.

  • Pine wilt pesticide ‘not affecting’ surrounding land
  • Pine wilt pesticide ‘not affecting’ surrounding land Study by provincial institute of health and environment Researchers say pine wilt pesticide is not affecting the eco-friendly farms near spraying sites. The provincial government’s Institute of Health and Environment conducted a study and found that the pesticide sprayed by aerial drones did not remain in land or crops 200 meters away from the sites that were sprayed. Even in the areas that were directly sprayed, no traces of the pesticide were found in crops after two weeks, though it was detected in the soil. 재선충 항공 방제농약, 주변 농업 영향 없어 재선충 항공방제 농약이 주변 친환경 농업에 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 나타났습니다. 제주특별자치도 보건환경연구원은 항공방제 농약이 살포된 주변 친환경농경지를 조사한 결과, 직접 살포된 지역으로부터 200미터가 떨어진 작물과 토양에는 농약이 잔류하지 않은 것으로 확인됐다고 밝혔습니다. 또, 직접 살포된 지점에서도 살포 이후 2주가 지나면 식물에서는 거의 농약이 소멸되고 토양에서만 잔류하는 것으로 조사됐습니다.
