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 casinos get portable counterfeit detectors Devices can ID bogus money, passports, and credit cards Casinos in Jeju now have an improved ability to detect counterfeits of all kinds. The National Forensic Service recently handed over to the provincial government two portable detectors that it had developed. The devices can identify counterfeit money, forged passports, and bogus credit cards. Without them, it’s taken a considerable amount of time to detect forgeries - all suspected cases have had to be sent to the NFS for testing. 카지노 휴대용 위변조 검출기 제주 배치 제주도내 카지노에서의 감식체계가 한층 빨라지고 강화될 전망입니다. 제주특별자치도는 최근 국립과학수사연구원으로부터 휴대용 위변조 검출기 2대를 전달받았습니다. 이번에 전달받은 휴대용 위변조 검출기는 현장에서 바로 위조화폐나 여권위조, 카드위변조를 확인할 수 있는 국과수에서 자체 개발한 장비입니다. 지금까지 위조화폐나 여권위조, 카드위변조를 확인하기 위해서는 국과수에 검사를 의뢰해야 해 적지 않은 시간이 걸렸습니다.

  • Jeju becomes test venue for US college entrance exam
  • Jeju becomes test venue for US college entrance exam First ACT to be in June Provincial officials inked a deal Friday to turn Jeju into a test venue for an American college admissions exam, and the first test will be in June. The ACT is roughly equivalent to the College Scholastic Ability Test given in Korea. About 59 percent of people heading to an American university take the exam each year, which works out to about 1.9 million annual test takers. The exam previously had been offered at 26 locations in Korea, and about 6,000 students had taken it in the country. Beginning last year, administrators cut the number of venues to just one, however, in response to cheating. With Jeju now a confirmed testing center, provincial officials aim to develop tour packages for Chinese students, who have to leave their country to take the exam. 6월부터 제주에서 미국 대입시험 ACT 미국의 최대 대학입학시험인 ACT가 이르면 오는 6월부터 제주에서도 치러집니다. 제주도는 오늘(21일) ACT와 이 같은 내용을 담은 양해각서를 체결했습니다. ACT는 우리나라의 대입수능 시험 성격으로, 미국 내 연간 대학 지원자의 59%인 192만명이 응시하고 있습니다. 우리나라에서 그동안 26군데 시험센터에서 6천 여명이 응시했지만 각종 부정행위가 발생하면서 지난해부터 수도권 1곳에서만 치르고 있습니다. 제주도는 중국에서 연간 만5천여 명이 ACT 시험에 응시하기 위해 해외를 찾는 것을 고려해 제주관광을 묶은 상품을 개발하기로 했습니다.

  • Film Focus
  • It’s the weekend again, and that means Film Focus. Here’s Mike Laidman with what’s new in local theaters. [Report] Anyone in the mood for a throwback? I hope you are, because TV staple Power Rangers is getting the full Hollywood treatment for the first time. Next on the movie menu is Colossal, a sci-fi comedy featuring Anne Hathaway and Jason Sudeikis. But which to chose? One, or two? As usual, viewers, the choice is up to you. [Slug CG] Mike Laidman Welcome to another edition of Film Focus. I’m Mike Laidman. [Slug CG] Power Rangers (2017, Dean Israelite) Infused with superpowers, high school students save the world. If you ever saw the campy show from the 90s, then you should have a pretty good idea of what’s in store for you should you buy a ticket with the words Power Rangers on it. But while your idea may be correct, it might not actually be what you end up with. When a group of high school outcasts stumbles upon an old alien ship, they acquire superpowers and become the Power Rangers. Learning that an old enemy from a previous generation has returned to exact vengeance, the group must harness their powers and use them to work together to save the world. Unfortunately, this 2017 edition of the Power Rangers loses the cheese that made the 90s show so palatable, and at the same time doesn’t stack up to the seriousness and grandeur of many of its superhero counterparts. It is fun, though, and those looking for a bit of nostalgia could do a lot worse than see it. [Slug CG] Colossal (2017, Nacho Vigalondo) A woman finds that events are linked to her mental breakdown. Colossal is a movie that does a much better job of self-identifying with its weirdness, perfectly aware of what it is and what it’s trying to do. Even if it does take a bit of time to get there. Gloria is an out-of-work party girl who, after getting kicked out of her apartment by her boyfriend, is forced to leave her life in New York and move back to her hometown. When news reports surface that a giant creature is destroying Seoul, Gloria gradually comes to the realization that she is somehow connected to this far-off phenomenon. As events begin to spin out of control, Gloria must determine why her seemingly insignificant existence has such a colossal effect on the fate of the world. It’s a brilliant concept, Hathaway’s performance is great, and we get to see a monster stomping around Seoul instead of Tokyo. Enough said.

  • Jeju becomes testing site for US college entrance exam
  • Jeju becomes testing site for US college entrance exam Officials hope to entice Chinese students to take ACT here Provincial officials on Friday signed an MOU with ACT, an American company that produces a college admissions test with the same name. China does not allow admissions tests for foreign universities within its borders, so the 30,000 Chinese who take such exams each year must travel elsewhere to do so. Jeju hopes to entice some of them here. The ACT is given five times annually at locations around the world. The earliest test here in Jeju will be in June. Provincial officials will also ink an MOU with a company called ATA, which has the copyright on ACT prep tests. They plan to design packages for test takers that include a prep test, the real ACT, college admissions presentations, and Jeju tours. 미국 최대 대학입학시험 ACT 제주서 실시 미국의 최대 대학입학시험이 제주에서도 치러집니다. 제주특별자치도는 내일(21일) 오후 미국의 최대 대학입학시험기관인 ACT와 이같은 내용의 양해각서를 체결합니다. 특히 중국의 경우 자국내에서 외국 대학입학시험을 허용하고 있지 않기 때문에 연간 3만명 정도가 해외에서 시험을 치르고 있는 만큼 상당부분을 제주로 흡수할 수 있을 것으로 예상됩니다. ACT는 연간 5차례에 걸쳐 전 세계에서 동시에 실시되며 제주의 경우 빠르면 오는 6월부터 시작될 전망입니다. 제주도는 또 ACT 모의고사의 판권을 갖고 있는 ATA와도 양해각서를 체결해 '모의고사와 ACT 시험, 유학설명회, 제주관광을 묶은 관광상품을 개발하기로 했습니다.
