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.

  • Flowery White Fields
  • The slopes of Hallasan are now wonderfully white with flowering buckwheat. Tourists and locals alike are captivated with the sight. Mike Balfour has more. Report White buckwheat fields reach across the slopes under a blue sky. The dramatic backdrop, Hallasan, hovers over. Looking down toward the sea, Jeju City sits in miniature. Visitors can walk across the flowering field feeling the turn of the season. INTERVIEW Yu Seung-hyeon / Tourist from Cheong-ju It’s really beautiful. The buckwheat flowers are like floating snow on the mountain. <인터뷰 : 유승현/충청북도 청주시> "도시에서 볼 수 없는 정말 아름다운 풍경이고 (메밀꽃이) 산과 잘 어울려서 눈이 떠 다니는 느낌이었어요." INTERVIEW Hwang Ji-yeong, Oh Yeong-seong / Jeju City We found this beautiful area this fall. We’re glad we came and took pictures of the baby against the backdrop of the white flowers. <인터뷰 : 황지영 오영성/제주시 이도동> "저도 제주도민인데 이곳은 처음 알아서 왔는데 너무 좋고 잘 온 것 같고요. 아기한테 좋은 사진 찍어줘서 좋고, 예쁜 걸 보니 좋습니다." For Koreans, buckwheat flowers bring to mind the novel “When the buckwheat flowers blossom”, set in (평창) Pyeongchang. Despite that perception, Jeju is the main producer of buckwheat in Korea. 70 percent of the national yield comes from the island. Next year, Jeju is planning to hold a buckwheat flower festival at this 800,000 square meter location, the largest buckwheat field in the nation. Now is the time to celebrate the turning of seasons while the snow-like fields of buckwheat are at their peak. Mike Balfour, KCTV

Candidates may apply through October 10th. The JDC’s board member recommendation committee will then narrow the field of candidates down to three based on applications and interviews. If all goes according to plan, the new chairman will begin his or her duties in November. The official term in office of the current chairman, Kim Han-wook, ended on June 6th, but he has continued on as the interim chief, as the position has remained vacant.

Until now, though, residents at rental complexes have been unable to have chargers installed due to a lack of parking space. The provincial government and the Jeju branch of the Korea Land and Housing Corporation, or LH, have signed a deal to install portable chargers at LH’s 15 complexes by next year. Some 90 portable chargers have alreadly been installed at large-scale apartment complexes with over 100 units.
