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.

  • Tangible results for new Tourism Police Squad
  • Tangible results for new Tourism Police Squad Group of officers dedicated to problems in tourism industry The Jeju Municipal Police Bureau is claiming success in the launch last February of a group of officers dedicated to problems in the tourism industry. Over the last roughly year, Tourism Police have uncovered 380 violations through crackdowns at major tourist attractions, restaurants, and accommodations. That’s more than twice the 170 violations police caught in 2015, before the tourism police group was formed. They focused on basic offenses, such as jaywalking, particularly around areas like Yeon-dong and Dongmun-ro, where foreign tourists tend to congregate. The squad also busted efficiency apartment owners in Yeon-dong, Jeju City in December, for operating illegal accommodations. 관광경찰 출범 이후 단속 실적 크게 늘어 지난해 2월 출범한 제주도자치경찰단 관광경찰이 가시적인 효과를 거두고 있습니다. 제주특별자치도 관광경찰은 지난 1년간 주요관광지와 음식점, 숙박업소를 중심으로 관광질서 저해사범에 대한 단속을 벌여 모두 380건을 적발했습니다. 이같은 단속실적은 관광경찰 출범 이전인 지난 2015년의 170건과 비교해 두 배 이상 급증한 것입니다. 주요내용을 보면 연동과 동문로 등 외국인 밀집지역을 중심으로 무단횡단과 같은 기초질서 단속은 물론 지난해 12월에는 제주시 연동 오피스텔을 임대해 불법 숙박업자를 형사입건하기도 했습니다.

  • 350,000+ registered vehicles in Jeju last year
  • 350,000+ registered vehicles in Jeju last year 24,000 new registrations in 2016, but growth slowing More than 350,000 cars are now registered on the island, but the rate at which new vehicles are being added to the total has started to slow. According to the provincial government, the tally at the end of last year was about 351,000. That’s about 24,000 more than a year earlier, which works out to roughly 67 new registrations daily. Monthly, the number of registrations peaked at 3,400 in April. That total fell in the second half of the year, dropping to a low of just 470 in October. Provincial officials say that decrease is due to a new parking proof requirement that is being rolled out this year, changes to the paid public parking lot system, and other modifications to the general transportation system. 제주 등록차량 35만대 돌파…증가세는 둔화 제주도에 등록된 차량이 35만대를 돌파한 가운데 차량 증가세를 주춤하고 있습니다. 제주특별자치도에 따르면 지난해 도내 등록 차량은 35만 1천여 대로 2015년말의 32만 5천대 보다 2만 4천여대 늘었습니다. 이같은 등록대수는 하루 평균 67대에 이르는 것입니다. 월별 등록대수는 지난해 4월 3천 400 여대로 정점을 찍은 뒤 10월에 470여대까지 감소하며 하반기들어 증가세가 크게 둔화됐습니다. 제주도는 올해부터 확대 시행되는 차고지 증명제와 공영주차장 유료화 등의 교통 제도 때문으로 분석하고 있습니다.

  • Jeju: A to Z (Seogwipo Penguin Swim)
  • This week on Jeju: A to Z, Todd Thacker takes a look at this year’s Seogwipo Penguin Swim, which is set for Saturday morning at Jungmun Saekdal Beach. Hundreds will brave the cold air and ocean, and have a wonderful day on one of Jeju’s most beautiful beaches. [Report] This year we’ve a couple of pretty dramatic cold snaps on Jeju. January is sure to bring more of the same, with breezes that can quickly chill you to the bone if you’re not bundled up. But believe it or not, some people actually look forward to these conditions. [Slug CG] Jungmun Saekdal Beach, Seogwipo The annual Seogwipo Penguin Swim, which is set for Saturday January 7th at Jungmun Saekdal Beach, is a good example of this. It brings together many dozens of hearty -- some might say foolhardy -- swimmers who take a brief plunge into the icy waters off the south coast. Jeju, like many places around the world, has a New Year’s tradition of winter swims. In the West, it’s called a Polar Bear Plunge. But on Jeju, it’s the penguin which represents the vivacious spirit of the outdoors. [Slug CG] Traditional activities, food Fortunately, you don’t need to actually take a dip in the ocean to participate. There are many activities and foods to enjoy during the morning event. For example, friendly traditional Korean wrestling matches, and balloon and kite flying. You can also try some steaming seaweed soup called momguk (몸국) and sliced boiled pork called dombegogi (돔베고기). [Slug CG] Great opportunity for photographers And for all the shutterbugs out there, there are some great opportunities to capture all the action with the beautiful backdrop of the ocean, one of Korea’s most famous beaches, and the cliffs which rise majestically in the background. [Slug CG] Todd Thacker One of the big questions on the day is: why do they do it? When asked, participants often reply that it’s a chance to reinvigorate their body and mind for the year ahead. Taking the plunge might not be for everyone, but it’s certainly one of the more memorable ways to mark the start of 2017 on Jeju. Todd Thacker KCTV

  • Eased standards for development fees
  • Eased standards for development fees Government will collect \1b less over next 3 years For the next three years, more small construction sites on the island will not be subject to a development fee. According to a new amendment, the standard on which the charge is based for sites in urban areas is going from 990 square meters to 1,500 square meters. Elsewhere, it’s going from 1,650 to 2,500 square meters. This change encompasses both industrial and housing developments. Local officials say the eased standards mean developers will pay about one billion won less in development fees between now and the end of 2019. 소규모 개발사업장 개발부담금 완화 소규모 개발사업장에 대한 개발부담금 제도가 한시적으로 완화됩니다. 개정된 개발이익 환수에 관한 법률에 따르면 올해부터 2019년까지 3년 동안 개발부담금이 부과되는 소규모 사업장 면적이 도시지역은 기존 990제곱미터에서 1천 500 제곱미터로, 비도시지역은 1천 650제곱미터에서 2천 500 제곱미터로 완화됐습니다. 또 산업단지 내 택지개발사업장도 부과대상에서 제외됩니다. 제주도는 이번 규제완화로 향후 3년간 개발부담금 10억원이 감면될 것으로 예상하고 있습니다.
