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.

  • Film Focus
  • It’s the weekend again, and that means Film Focus. Here’s Mike Laidman with what’s new in local theaters. [Report] ‘Tale as old as time, song as old as rhyme.’ That’s a little how I feel sometimes when I introduce the week’s movies, so why not let Beauty and the Beast do it for me? This week, that’s what’s on the menu, and boy, does it taste good. Coming in second, way back in second, is The Space Between Us, a movie that takes its great premise and throws it away in favour of a big helping of cheese. [Slug CG] Mike Laidman Welcome to another edition of Film Focus. I’m Mike Laidman. [Slug CG] Beauty and the Beast (2017, Bill Condon) An adaptation of the Disney classic. Disney is on a bit of a hot streak as of late, at least when it comes to the live-action adaptations of their classics, some of which date back over 60 years. Beauty and the Beast was the first animated movie to be nominated for an Oscar for best picture, due in part to the beautiful story as well as the timeless songs and wonderful animation. This 2017 live-action version looks to keep exactly what made the original so popular - lavish costumes, beautifully-crafted songs, and an enchanting voice cast - while also offering a fresh take on the story that many know so well. We are treated to the fantastic journey of Belle, a bright, beautiful and independent young woman who is taken prisoner by a beast in his castle. Despite her fears, she befriends the castle's enchanted staff and learns to look beyond the Beast's hideous exterior and realize the kind heart and soul of the true prince within. Anyone who has fond memories of the original animated version, or who has kids now, will undoubtedly enjoy seeing such an enchanted story on the big screen once again. [Slug CG] The Space Between Us (2017, Peter Chelsom) The first human born on Mars travels to Earth for the first time. Shortly after arriving to help colonize Mars, an astronaut dies while giving birth to the first human born on the red planet. Thus begins the extraordinary life of Gardner Elliot - an inquisitive, highly intelligent boy who reaches the age of 16 having only met 14 people in his very unconventional upbringing. When he finally gets a chance to go to Earth, Gardner is eager to experience all of the wonders he could only read about on Mars. But after his explorations begin, scientists discover that Gardner's organs can't withstand Earth's atmosphere, and so he must work against time to unravel where he belongs in the universe. The Space Between Us has an intriguing premise, but unfortunately falls pretty flat across the board. It’s full of plot holes, and is over-the-top sentimental. What could have been an interesting science fiction tale is instead turned into a cheesy teenage romance, just set in space.

  • Beginning of season for ticks that carry SFTS virus
  • 4. Beginning of season for ticks that carry SFTS virus ‘Apply repellant and don’t lie down on grass’ The ticks that carry the SFTS virus are beginning to come out, so the provincial government is advising people to take care to avoid getting bit by them when outside. Officials say nobody should lie directly on the grass and that everyone should apply tick repellant. After any outdoor activities, people are advised to shower and wash their clothes. Last year in Jeju, eight people were infected with the virus that causes SFTS, which is short for severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome.

  • ‘Constitutional backing needed for Jeju’s semi-autonomy’
  • ‘Constitutional backing needed for Jeju’s semi-autonomy’ Governor discusses issue with National Assembly leaders Governor Won Hee-ryong met Thursday afternoon with two national leaders to make the case for Jeju’s semi-autonomy to be reflected in constitutional law. During talks with National Assembly speaker (정세균) Chung Se-kyun and first chair of the assembly’s special committee for constitutional amendments (김동철) Kim Dong Cheol, Governor Won argued doing so was a crucial step in laying the foundation of a decentralized developed country and in creating a “free international city.” He pointed out that this issue is not new - enshrining Jeju’s semi-autonomy in the constitution has been discussed since the initial talks on giving the island province special privileges. Finally, the governor maintained that constitutional backing for Jeju’s semi-autonomy could serve as an example for special regions that may be created in the context of Korean unification. "특별자치도 헌법 반영" 건의서 전달 원희룡 제주특별자치도지사가 오늘 오후 정세균 국회의장과 김동철 국회 개헌특위 제1소위원장을 만나 제주특별자치도의 헌법적 지위 확보를 위한 개헌추진 건의서를 전달했습니다. 건의서를 통해 제주도는 제주특별자치도의 헌법적 지위 확보의 경우 당초 특별자치도 기본구상단계에서부터 지속적으로 논의돼 왔고 분권형 선진국가와 국제자유도시 조성을 위한 특별자치 도입의 필요성을 강조했습니다. 또 통일 후를 대비해 특수지역에 대한 특별자치 시범 모델을 추진할 수 있는 만큼 이번 기회에 특별자치를 헌법에 반영해야 한다고 명문화했습니다.

  • April Third Incident Being Taught in US
  • Some American schools have begun teaching students about the Jeju April Third Incident. Mike Laidman has more. Report Chris Braden and Maxwell Comando teach history and culture at a Connecticut high school in the United States. [slug] New Haven high schools teaching Jeju April 3rd Incident Beginning this year, they started including the Jeju April Third Incident in their curriculum. And it’s not just a one-off thing, either. They have a textbook about the historic event, and the course is part of a semester-long curriculum. The two teachers were impressed with the stories of the descendants of the victims of the events, as well as police efforts for reconciliation and coexistence. They chose the tragic incident as material to teach peace and human rights. Recording Maxwell Commando / Instructor, Metropolitan Business Academy [녹취 맥스웰 코맨도 / 美 메트로폴리탄 비즈니스 아카데미 ] "(4.3) 희생자와 생존자 진상조사, 그리고 가해자와의 화해 노력은 항구 평화로 가기 위한 으로 이번 수업의 목표이기도 합니다. " The American teachers developed the teaching materials for the course themselves. Recording Chris Braden / Teacher, Hill Regional Career High School [녹취 크리스 브래든 / 美 힐리저널커리어고교 교사 ] " (4.3교재) 단원을 발간하는데 2명의 주요 교사들이 어떻게 구성할 지를 논의했고 그 밖에도 20여 명의 교사가 참여했습니다." The material includes the historical background of the April Third Incident, as well as the role and responsibilities of the United States. The teachers hope that American students will broaden their perspectives on reconciliation by learning about the event. Recording Maxwell Commando / Instructor, Metropolitan Business Academy [녹취 맥스웰 코맨도 / 美 메트로폴리탄 비즈니스 아카데미 ] " 저는 4.3수업에서 이런 비극을 어떻게 치유하고 앞으로 어떻게 나갈 수 있을 지를 강조하고 싶습니다." [slug] 15 American schools include April 3rd Incident in curriculum 15 American schools currently have the April Third Incident as a part of their curriculum, and the two teachers hope that more American schools will participate in the future. Recording Chris Braden / Teacher, Hill Regional Career High School [녹취 크리스 브래든 / 美 힐리저널커리어고교 교사 ] "우리가 성공적으로 마치면 모든 학교가 참여할 것입니다. 맥스웰 교사가 단원을 자세히 기술할 예정으로 낙관적으로 보고 있습니다." [Reporter] Mike Laidman [Camera] Ko Moon-su By including this dark piece of Jeju’s past in an American high school curriculum, Misters Braden and Commando hope that the Korean perception of the event will change. This is because, over the years, the story of the April Third Incident has become somewhat distorted by the more conservative members of Korean society. Mike Laidman, KCTV
