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.

  • Fewer Chinese visit over Chinese New Year holidays
  • Fewer Chinese visit over Chinese New Year holidays 7% fewer than last year Compared to last year, fewer Chinese visited the island during the Chinese New Year’s Day holidays. The Jeju branch of the Bank of Korea puts this year’s tally at some 48,000 - 7% fewer. Airplane arrivals from China tumbled 24 percent to about 31,400, while cruise ship arrivals spiked by 66%. Analysts gave a couple of reasons for the decline. They said many Chinese prefered to visit Seoul this time because they were traveling on their own, rather than as part of a large group. They also cited China’s opposition to Korea’s decision to deploy the THAAD missile defense system. 춘절연휴 제주 방문 중국 관광객 감소 중국 춘절연휴기간에 제주를 찾은 중국인 관광객이 감소했습니다. 한국은행 제주본부에 따르면 이번 춘절연휴 제주를 찾은 중국인 관광객은 4만 8천여 명으로 지난해 같은기간 보다 7% 감소했습니다. 크루즈 관광객이 66% 증가한 반면 항공편을 통한 관광객 수는 3만 1천4백여 명으로 24% 감소했습니다. 이같은 현상에 대해 한국은행은 중국인 개별 관광객 비중이 늘면서 수도권으로 몰리고 있는데다 사드배치 결정에 따른 한한령의 영향 때문으로 분석했습니다.

  • Jeonse-to-monthly rent conversion rate dips
  • Jeonse-to-monthly rent conversion rate dips Analysts say this is good news for tenants Jeonse is a long-term lease in which tenants make a substantial deposit to the landlord, which is then returned in full at the end of the contract, and the rate at which jeonse leases are being converted into monthly rentals is falling. Analysts say the lower this conversion rate is, the less of a worry tenants have in making monthly payments. The Korea Appraisal Board says that, compared to the year before, the conversion rate of jeonse contracts into those in which tenants pay by the month fell 0.9 points to 6.1 percent in December. The biggest drop came in apartment rental contracts. The conversion rate for them fell 2.2 points to five percent, while it fell by 0.7 points for residences designated as multi-unit houses. 주택 전세전환율 6.1%…소폭 하락 아파트를 중심으로 전월세전환율이 소폭 하락했습니다. 한국감정원에 따르면 지난해 12월 기준 제주지역 전월세전환율은 6.1%로 지난해 같은 기간보다 0.9%p 떨어졌습니다. 특히 아파트 전월세전환율이 지난해보다 2.2%p 하락한 5%로 가장 많이 떨어졌고, 연립다세대주택은 0.7%p 하락했습니다. 전월세전환율은 전세금을 월세로 전환활 때 적용하는 비율로 이 비율이 낮을수록 월세 부담이 적다는 것을 의미합니다

  • Closing of Jeju Air’s reservation center ‘impossible’
  • Closing of Jeju Air’s reservation center ‘impossible’ Province responds to controversial plan The provincial government maintains it is impossible for Jeju Air to move ahead with its controversial plan to shutter its reservation center on the island. Local officials demanded on Thursday that the airline keep the center open. They argued that Jeju Air was launched in the promise of providing an air carrier for islanders. Accordingly, they said, the reservation center must remain here. Jeju Air officials maintain it is too difficult to staff the local center, so they decided to combine its operations with the reservation center in Seoul. The company advised the 50 people working at the Jeju center to resign.
