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.

  • Jeju: A to Z (Woljeong-ri Beach)
  • This week on Jeju: A to Z, Todd Thacker takes a brief look at Woljeong-ri Beach, a popular destination on the northeast coast. As we’ll see now, it’s an area that is in very good company with its acclaimed counterparts at Hamdeok and Gimnyeong. The coast of Woljeong-ri, in the northeastern district of Gujwa-eup, has all the classic natural elements of Jeju. Its white sand, black basalt stone walls, and a crystal-clear sea all come together into a perfect storm of beauty. This typical Jeju rural village, one centered on agriculture and fishing, has been inhabited for centuries. But about five years ago, the word got out and development began in earnest. [Slug CG] 1m annual visitors, an official Jeju beach from 2016 Now there are hundreds of cafes, restaurants, and guesthouses to accommodate the flood of visitors, numbering in the 1 million range annually. In 2016, Woljeong was designated an official Jeju beach and change rooms, shower facilities and a tourist information center were installed there. Though the area may not be as remote and untouched as it once was, rest assured that locals and officials have endeavored to keep this section of Jeju’s coast as intact as possible. This includes its distinctive agricultural and maritime culture, and the traditions of the haenyeo ? Jeju’s diving women. On that note: this weekend, if you have the chance to explore the Woljeong area and Jeju Olle walking trail No. 20, be sure to check out the Jeju Batdam Festival! [Slug CG] 2018 Jeju Batdam Festival, Sept. 15-16 This two-day event offers a unique window on Jeju’s agricultural traditions. You can try your hand at building a Jeju traditional stone wall, take a pleasant guided tour, and enjoy a traditional Jeju lunch box, called a donggoryang (동고량). [Slug CG] Todd Thacker There’s plenty more to do and see, so for more information and to sign up, just go to KCTV Jeju’s website. Todd Thacker KCTV

  • Jeju Olle Foundation envisions walking trails in North Korea
  • 4. Jeju Olle Foundation envisions walking trails in North Korea Suggestion submitted to Blue House, unification council, etc. The Jeju Olle Foundation is trying to set up Olle walking trails in North Korea. The foundation recently submitted a plan to the Blue House, the National Unification Advisory Council, and other agencies detailing its proposal to use the trails eco-travel infrastructure and as a means of inter-Korean communication. The main thrust of the proposal is to bridge the divide between North and South Koreans by establishing so-called “Peace Olle” trails in the north. The foundation suggests creating a private organization to realize its goal with the help of NGOs on both sides of the border. 제주올레, 북한 평화올레길 개설 추진 사단법인 제주올레가 북한에 올레길 개설을 추진합니다. 제주올레는 최근 '트레일을 활용한 생태여행 기반 구축과 남북 소통 협력사업'을 청와대와 민주평화통일자문회의 등 관련기관에 제안했습니다. 제주의 올레를 북한으로도 수출해 남북한 주민의 소통 통로 역할을 하자는게 주 내용입니다. 이를 위해 제주올레는 '평화올레 남북한 민간협력추진기구'를 구성해 남북한 민간단체를 주축으로 평화올레길을 만든다는 구상입니다.

  • Conditional approval for new ‘Seobu Middle School’
  • 3. Conditional approval for new ‘Seobu Middle School’ Ministry of Education wants it built closer to residential area The national government has approved the provincial education office’s plan to establish a new middle school in Jeju. Education office representatives say the Ministry of Education performed a central investment review and approved the construction of the tentatively-named Seobu Middle School on the condition that it be built in a different location, specifically somewhere closer to a residential area. The provincial education office now has to find a new place for the school, and that will disrupt the project timetable. Officials had wanted to begin construction next year and open the new school in 2020. 가칭 '서부중학교' 조건부 인정 제주도교육청이 추진중인 가칭 서부중학교 설립이 조건부로 정부 승인을 받게됐습니다. 제주도교육청은 교육부 중앙투자심사 결과 학교 위치를 변경하는 조건부로 가칭 서부중학교 학교설립을 인정했다고 밝혔습니다 교육부는 현재 제주도교육청이 제출한 학교 설립 예정지를 주택가 인근으로 옮기도록 조건을 달았습니다. 이에 따라 제주도교육청이 당초 학교 설립 예정지를 새롭게 찾아야 하게되면서 내년 착공해 2020년 개교 목표에도 차질이 불가피해졌습니다.

  • Review committee for 2nd feasibility study for 2nd airport
  • 2. Review committee for 2nd feasibility study for 2nd airport Transport ministry, airport critics agree on new group to steer process The transport ministry and the group opposing the construction of the island’s second airport have agreed to form a review committee to discuss a redo of the site feasibility study for the facility. Representatives from the two sides announced the plan Tuesday morning at Provincial Office Building 2 during an interim briefing session on the issue. Representatives from the ministry and the opposition group will select the members of the new committee this week. A second interim briefing session is then planned after consultations with the review committee. As all discussions to this point about a possible repeat of the site feasibility study have not included the new committee, officials are considering extending the process. Tuesday’s session was only a general overview of the situation, which is what both sides had agreed to. 국토부-제2공항 반대위, 재조사 검토위 구성 합의 국토교통부와 제주 제2공항 반대대책위원회가 제2공항 입지선정 타당성 재조사를 위한 검토위원회 구성에 합의했습니다. 이들은 오늘(11일) 오전 제주도청 2청사에 열린 제2공항 입지선정 타당성 재조사 용역 중간보고회에서 이같은 내용을 포함한 합의안을 발표했습니다. 합의안에 따라 국토부와 반대주민들은 이번주 내로 검토위원회 위원을 선정하고 검토위와 상의를 거쳐 2차 중간보고회를 별도로 열기로 했습니다. 특히 지금까지 검토위 없이 재조사 용역이 진행돼 왔던 만큼 용역 기간을 연장하는 방안도 추가 논의하기로 했습니다. 한편, 오늘 열린 입지선정 타당성 재조사 중간보고회는 양측 합의에 따라 기본적인 쟁점사항 현황만 짚어보는 정도로 간략하게 진행됐습니다.
