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.

  • Province cutting express bus fares by ₩1,000
  • Province cutting express bus fares by \1,000 Cheaper tickets by end of December The provincial government will cut ticket prices this month for express buses. The province is bowing to public opinion. Riders have been complaining that it’s more expensive to take a bus since the province revamped the public transport system. Fares will be 1,000 won cheaper after the change, so the maximum a rider will have to pay will be 3,000 won. In August, express bus fares on the longest routes went up by 700 won compared to the previous standard intercity bus fares. They were as much as 4,000 won. 제주도, "급행버스 요금 1천 원 인하" 제주특별자치도가 이달 안으로 급행버스 이용 요금을 인하합니다. 제주도는 급행버스 이용요금이 개편 전보다 비싸다는 의견을 수용해 이달 안으로 요금을 1천 원 인하한다고 밝혔습니다. 이에 따라 최대 요금이 4천 원에서 3천 원으로 할인 적용될 예정입니다. 대중교통 개편으로 지난 8월 도입된 급행버스는 최대 구간 이용요금이 4천 원으로 기존 시외버스 요금보다 7백원 비쌌습니다.

  • Film Focus
  • It’s the weekend again, and that means Film Focus. Here’s Mike Laidman with what’s new in local theaters. [Report] Sandwiched between Justice League and that big story about space that’s opening in a few weeks is a smaller, period piece, as well as a huge throwback from the 70’s. This week take a look at the lavish crime drama Murder on the Orient Express, and then see where the modern history of boxing movies all began with a retro spin through the wonder that was Rocky. And yes, we’re talking about the original here. From 1976. So hold on. [Slug CG] Mike Laidman Welcome to another edition of Film Focus. I’m Mike Laidman. [Slug CG] Murder on the Orient Express (2017, Kenneth Branagh) Detective Hercule Poirot must solve a murder on a train. What starts out as a lavish train ride through Europe quickly unfolds into one of the most stylish, suspenseful, and thrilling mysteries ever told. From the novel by author Agatha Christie, "Murder on the Orient Express" tells the tale of thirteen strangers stranded on a train, where everyone's a suspect. One man must race against time to solve the puzzle before the murderer strikes again. While there’s no debating that the movie is sumptuously shot, it is largely bereft of the kick and charm which make the novel so enticing. The all-star cast does well here, but one can’t help get the feeling that their talents are mostly wasted on a mystery/adventure that really has no reason being retold. Kenneth Branagh, who directs and stars, clearly has fun with his portrayal of detective Poirot, but the same can’t quite be said of the audience. While still watchable, it’s a shame that Orient doesn’t live up to its source material. [Slug CG] Rocky (1976, John G. Avildson) Rocky Balboa gets the rare chance to fight Apollo Creed. It was over 30 years ago that the world was first introduced to rocky Balboa - perhaps the most iconic movie boxing icon of all time - and to an extent, Sylvester Stallone, who is still going strong in action movies today. The storyline is simple, and so it should be for an ‘against all odds’ kind of tale. A slightly dimwitted amateur boxer from Philadelphia's tough neighborhood gets a surprise shot at fighting for the heavyweight championship, while at the same time he finds love in the arms of a shy, reclusive girl who works in the local pet store. In addition to a heart-warming script, Stallone has created on the screen a character of enormous appeal and charm - half-articulate but funny, gruff but good-hearted. Rocky is a glowing tribute to the human spirit - a reminder that the decent, little guys of the world often accomplish the impossible because they try so hard. So go see Rocky for the second, third, maybe even first time in theatres, and come out feeling like a million bucks.

  • ‘Seoul should fix field placement problems’
  • ‘Seoul should fix field placement problems’ Educational sector still reeling after death of local student The National Council of Governors of Education says Seoul should improve the field placement program that some high school students use to get real-world job experience. At a Thursday general meeting of the association in Jeollabuk-do, Jeju superintendent of education Lee Seok-mun says there is a limit to what schools can or will do to solve problems with the program. He proposed that the government, either national or regional, assume oversight of the program, according to the Vocational Education and Training Promotion Act. Association chairman Lee Jae-jung said it was crucial to re-work the program’s assessment parameters. Schools are evaluated according to how many of their students find jobs. Local student Lee Min-ho was recently killed in an accident while taking part in his school’s field placement program.

INTERVIEW Seo Jae-cheol / Photographer Darangshi has a well-balanced appearance. Hikers are amazed by the steep ridge and surprised at the crater on top. Darangshi has beauty unmatched by any other oreum on Jeju. 인터뷰: 서재철/ 사진작가> "다랑쉬오름의 균제미는 아주 뛰어납니다. 오름의 가파른 능선을 올라가면 분화구를 보면서 다시 한 번 놀라게 되죠. 다른 오름에서 느껴볼 수 없는 독특함이 다랑쉬에 있습니다."
