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.

  • Arirang: Promoting Balanced Tourism
  • As we know here, there’s a lot more to Korea than Seoul,... but the problem is most tourists to the country rarely venture outside of the capital. With this in mind,... the government has set up a number of unique programs aimed at giving visitors the full Korea experience. Kim Ji-yeon has more. Report [SLUG] New bus service to boost regional tourism Korea has launched a bus service catering to foreign tourists to promote tourism in the country's provincial regions. Organized by the Visit Korea Committee, the K-Travel Bus package offers convenient services at a low price. For an overnight trip, packages can range from 150 to 170 U.S. dollars per person. This group of ten tourists had the chance to visit Korea's southern city of Tongyeong. [Interview] Kiyo Rea / Filipino tourist "This is my first time in Tongyeong and it's what I felt in Busan. I fell in love right away. Everything has been prepared for you, the food, the transportation and everything even the guide is also there to help you with the explanation if there's no English translation. It's great." [Interview] Masuka Minami / Japanese tourist (Japanese) "One of the best things about this program is that we are able to bond with other foreign tourists during the trip. I would definitely recommend the bus travel program to acquaintances back in my home country." Another rising trend in the local tourism sector that is attracting large groups of foreigners ...is "incentive travel" in which foreign companies send employees on vacation to Korea as a reward for their hard work. [REPORTER] Kim Ji-yeon "Six-thousand visitors from China, the largest number of tourists to visit Korea at one time, have been divided into groups to tour this attraction in Song-do, Incheon city." Attracting incentive travel is a major focus for the local tourism sector due to potentially huge profitability for the regions. [Interview] Kim Chul-won / Professor, Kyung Hee University (Korean) "The 6-thousand Chinese tourists visiting as a result of incentive travel is estimated to generate 10-point-3-million U.S. dollars for the city of Incheon. It also helps boost the image of the city as a tourist destination... and offers foreigners another destination besides the traditional tourist regions of Jeju Island and the capital Seoul." [SLUG] ‘Infrastructure crucial to boosting provincial tourism’ To attract large numbers of tourists like Incheon has... the professor says that provincial cities need to devise ways to accommodate tens of thousands of tourists at one time and provide large venues for recreation as well as dining options. [CAMERA] Bang Bo-hyun The professor also says there's a need for better cultural content and exhibition programs that are unique to each region. Kim Ji-yeon, Arirang News.

  • 2019 high school entrance guidelines announced
  • 2019 high school entrance guidelines announced Less emphasis on minor subjects The Jeju Provincial Office of Education has announced high school entrance assessment guidelines the 2019 academic year. Students entering high school in 2019 will be placed in schools based solely on their middle school grades, with the percentage of major subjects, such as Korean, English and Math, in the assessment to go up from the current 70 percent to 80 percent of the total. Ten percent of the assessment will be based on academic scores from the first semester of the first year of middle school - the second semester won’t be considered, as it will be a so-called “free-semester” during which students are encouraged to explore career options without worrying about exams. Another 30 percent of the high school assessment will be based on the second year, and the remaining 60 percent will be based on grades from the third and final year of middle school. Superintendent of education Lee Seok-moon said his office will be attributing less weight to minor subjects in a bid to allow schools to focus more on varied educational activities. 2019학년도 고입 전형 확정…비교과성적 '축소' 내신 성적만으로 선발하는 2019학년도 고입전형에서 교과 성적 반영 비율은 확대되고 비교과성적은 축소됐습니다. 이석문 제주도교육감은 오늘(31일) 이 같은 내용을 담은 2019학년도 고등학교 입학전형을 확정해 발표했습니다. 확정 계획에 따르면 당초 교과 성적 반영 비율은 70에서 80%로 늘었고 비교과성적은 30%에서 20%로 축소됐습니다. 학년별 성적 반영비율은 1학년 10%, 2학년 30%, 3학년 60%를 반영하며 자유학기제가 시행되는 1학년 2학기 교과성적은 반영하지 않기로 했습니다. 이 교육감은 비교과 성적 비율이 높으면 다양한 교육활동이 위축될 수 있어 이를 축소했다고 밝혔습니다.

  • Jeju Air, Jin Air each fined ₩600m for safety violations
  • Jeju Air, Jin Air each fined \600m for safety violations Penalized for separate incidents in December Budget carriers Jeju Air and Jin Air have each been slapped with a 600 million won fine for breaching flight safety regulations… the highest financial penalty since a revision to the air safety law. The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport also suspended pilots of both airlines for 30 days. The Jeju Air pilot was found to have failed to turn on the air pressure regulator, which forced his plane, carrying about 150 passengers in December, to drop suddenly from an altitude of 18,000 feet to just 8,000 feet. The Jin Air pilot was held responsible for an improperly closed door that caused the flight, carrying 160 passengers, to make an emergency return to its origin. That incident also happened in December. '안전논란' 제주항공·진에어 6억 과징금 안전논란 물의를 빚은 제주항공과 진에어에게 항공 안전 관련법 개정 이후 사상 최대 규모의 과징금이 부과됐습니다. 국토교통부는 최근 저비용항공사의 비정상운항 사고에 대해 행정처분심의위원회를 열고 각각 과징금 6억원과 조종사 자격정지 30일의 처분을 의결했습니다. 이 같은 과징금은 항공 안전 규정 위반에 대한 과징금이 종전 1천만원에서 최고 6억원으로 개정된 후 최고액입니다. 앞서 제주항공 조종사는 기내 공기압 조절 스위치를 작동하지 않은 채 운항했고, 대한항공 계열 진에어는 출입문의 개폐 상태를 제대로 확인하지 않았고 문제 보고에 대한 조치도 미흡한 것으로 나타났습니다.
