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.

  • Local police to be introduced in other areas of country
  • 1. Local police to be introduced in other areas of country Seoul will cover costs of shifting responsibilities from national police Authorities will introduce local police forces, like the one in Jeju, to other areas of the nation next year, and the national government will bear the cost of the changes. The Presidential Committee on Autonomy and Decentralization held a policy debate held at its Seoul office Tuesday to explore ideas on expanding the use of local police forces. The committee pointed out that the Jeju Municipal Police force has only 8 percent of the manpower of the national police. By establishing local police forces for each of the country’s regional governments, authorities envision there being 43,000 local police officers by the year 2022. That would be 36 percent of all police in the nation. National authorities plan to have local police take over responsibility for fields such as general safety, women’s issues, and traffic. If the national government’s general plan is finalized this month, the National Police Agency will begin detailed planning and legislative procedures to enact the changes on a trial basis by the end of next year. 자치경찰제 확대…재정 '국가부담' 원칙 제주에서 시행되고 있는 자치경찰제가 내년부터 전국으로 확대될 예정인 가운데 재정은 국가가 부담한다는 원칙이 제시됐습니다. 대통령소속 자치분권위원회는 13일 정부서울청사에서 열린 자치경찰제 도입 정책토론회에서 이같이 밝히며 자치경찰제 활성화안을 내놓았습니다. 특히 현재 제주 자치경찰은 국가경찰의 8%에 불과하지만 오는 2022년까지 전체 경찰의 36%인 4만 3천 명을 지방직 자치경찰로 전환하고 각 지자체에 자치경찰본부를 신설한다고 설명했습니다. 이를 통해 기존 경찰서에서 담당하던 생활안전과 여성, 교통 등 주민밀착형 사건을 자치경찰로 이관한다는 계획입니다. 정부안이 이번 달 안에 확정되면 소관부처인 경찰청은 세부계획 수립과 입법 절차를 통해 내년 말부터 시범 사업을 실시할 예정입니다.

  • Public vs. Private
  • A road that area residents and visitors have used for 70 years is in danger of disappearing. As land prices are increasing in Jeju, landowners are exerting their rights. These types of disputes show no signs of abating. Mike Laidman reports. [slug] Iho-dong, Jeju City This is a decades-old road which links (이호) Iho Beach with the nearby town. Over the years it has become increasingly busier, with more and more tourists visiting the beach. But now, the old road is on the brink of disappearing. [slug] Landowner to construct building on road In the 1970s, the road was incorporated into public land, but wth neither compensation nor proper documentation on the record, the landowner is planning to construct a building on it. A line marks the property boundary, and the owner has asked Jeju City to tear up the offending pavement. [slug] Landowner wins lawsuit In a lawsuit over ownership against Jeju City, the landowner came out on top, and so now has the right to demolish the road. Meanwhile, area residents are opposing construction. [slug] Area residents oppose construction If the road is closed due to construction, traffic would build up on other roads and sales at stores the road services would plummet. More than 30 residents in the area have filed a petition to Jeju City asking that the government not allow the construction to go ahead. INTERVIEW Cha Su-min / Local business owner I put everything into my business. Things won’t look good if the road is blocked. I might just give it all up and go back to the mainland. <인터뷰 : 차수민 / 인근 상인> "전 재산을 가지고 (숙박업을) 시작했는데. 저 길이 막힌다고 하면 앞으로 미래가 없을 것 같아서 다 버리고 육지로 돌아가고 싶어요." INTERVIEW Gang Taek-geun / Community leader, Iho 1-dong We have used the road for more than 70 years. If it disappears, we don’t have any alternative routes for residents and visitors. <인터뷰 : 강택근 / 이호1동 3통장> "그 도로를 70여년 동안 사용했는데, 이걸 막아버리면 원주민들이나 관광객들이 차로 통행할 수 있는 길이 전혀 없습니다." [slug] 91,000 uncompensated lots of land in Jeju In addition to some local roads, there are 91,000 other lots of private land that have gone uncompensated or for which there only exists incomplete documentation. The compensation amounts to 1.2 trillion won. And with the province losing ownership lawsuits one after the other, the compensation is growing. Recording Jeju City representative If a lot is legally recognized as private property, roads on the land cannot be acknowledged as public. We are at a disadvantage. We have to consult with the landowners. <싱크 : 제주시 관계자> "개인 사유지이기 때문에 소송에서는 (도로라는 것을) 인정을 안해주죠. 행정이 불리합니다. 토지주와 보상 협의를 해봐야죠."

  • ‘Helicopter landing pad at Baengnokdam not under consideration’
  • 1. ‘Helicopter landing pad at Baengnokdam not under consideration’ Governor denies media reports suggesting otherwise The governor says recent reports that suggest his administration is considering building a helicopter landing pad at Hallasan Mountain’s crater lake are false. Won Heeryong says helicopters have already been able to land near Baengnokdam??they’ve brought researchers there for drilling and exploration purposes. He argues there is therefore no need for separate landing facilities. The governor added that he is against the construction of any landing pad around Baengnokdam, and he maintained that his administration would not install any facility that would damage the environment.

  • DUI Crackdown
  • As 2018 winds down, and people gather to celebrate the end of this year and the beginning of next, police are out in force looking for drunk drivers. Joseph Kim reports. [slug] Yeon-dong, Jeju City Traffic is always heavy near the (신제주) Shin Jeju Rotary. Police are checking for drunk drivers. In less than 10 minutes, a drunk driver in their twenties is caught. Recording Police officer Blow it one more time. More, more. Ok, done. <싱크 : 경찰> "한번 더 해봅니다. 더더더더더. 됐습니다." [slug] Blood alcohol content 0.069%, license suspended The driver stammers out an excuse that he had only two glasses of beer. But the blood alcohol concentration is 0.069 which is subject to a suspension of his(her) driver’s licence. He(she) had a police record of drunk driving. He(she) cannot avoid punishment. Recording Police officer A driver didn't come? (No, he didn't.) Because your house is nearby? <싱크 : 음주단속 경찰> "대리가 안왔어요? (네. 대리가 안와서...) 집이 가까워서?" [slug] Iho-dong, Jeju City This is another busy road in Jeju City. A chauffeur on duty was caught for drunk driving. Recording Police officer Blow more, more, more. <싱크 : 음주단속 경찰> "부세요. 더더더더더" He said he had a bottle of soju after working late into the night. His blood alcohol concentration registers at 0.040 percent. He narrowly avoided the suspension of his driver’s license as 0.05 percent is the level that triggers suspension. [slug] DUI crackdown through end of January Police have begun a three-month crackdown on drunk driving during the year-end and the new year season until next January. In particular, they will run checkpoints every Friday night in popular drinking areas, such as those near restaurants and parks, and they will be changing their location every 20 to 30 minutes. And the crackdown is expanded to daytime. INTERVIEW Police officer The 3-month crackdown aims to root out drunk driving during the party season at the end of this year and the beginning of next. We want to reduce car accidents by focusing on repeat offenders. <인터뷰 : 경찰> "연말연시를 앞두고 내년 1월말까지 3개월간 음주운전 집중 단속을 통해 사전에 음주운전 분위기를 근절하고 특히 재범 의지를 차단해 음주운전 교통사고를 줄이는데 목적이 있습니다." Police also plan to give violators harsher criminal punishments as well as take stricter administrative measures regarding their driving licenses. [slug] Strengthened criteria for punishment They are lowering the level of blood alcohol subject to punishments from 0.05 percent to 0.03 percent by amending the Road Traffic Act. [slug] License revoked with 2nd violation If the Act is revised as proposed, when a driver is caught twice for driving under the influence, his or her driver’s license will be revoked. About 5,000 drivers are caught driving under the influence every year in Jeju.
