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.

  • KCTV: Film Focus
  • [Anchor] It’s the weekend again, and that means Film Focus. Here’s Mike Laidman with what’s new in local theaters. [Report] The weather is starting to slowly cool as we move into September. The fall means we can look forward to beautiful Jeju skies as well as a break from the big-budget summer movies, many of which were pretty underwhelming this year. Keep your emotions in check with Equals, and then next week, be sure to watch your step. Otherwise you’ll be joining alice in Alice through the Looking Glass. [Slug CG] Mike Laidman Welcome to another edition of Film Focus. I’m Mike Laidman. [Slug CG] Equals (2016, Drake Doremus) Two people fall in love In an emotionless utopia. Opening this weekend is Equals, starring Kristen Stewart and Nicholas Hoult. A futuristic love story set in a world where emotions have been eradicated, Equals follows Nia and Silas as they regain their feelings following a mysterious disease. This of course sets them at odds with their people and society. Equals is beautifully shot, and is a pleasure to watch. Stewart and Hoult put in some solid performances, as well. But while the visuals and acting are fine, the same thing cannot be said for the story as a whole. The movie’s idea of repressed, forbidden emotions is nothing new, and a dystopian, futuristic setting doesn’t necessarily remedy this. The plot is predictable, the pace meandering, and while there is value in simplicity, there’s maybe just a touch too much of that here for this to be a solid recommendation. [Slug CG] Alice Through the Looking Glass (2016, James Bobin) Alice returns to Wonderland and travels back in time. Skipping ahead to next week, we have Alice Through the Looking Glass, the sequel to 2010’s phenomenally successful Alice in Wonderland. After her return from Wonderland, Alice spends a few years following in her father's footsteps, sailing the high seas. Then upon her return to London, she comes across a magical looking glass and returns to the fantastical realm of Wonderland and her friends. The Mad Hatter has lost his Muchness, and so Alice is sent on a quest to borrow the Chronosphere, a metallic globe inside the chamber of the Grand Clock, which powers all time. Returning to the past, she embarks on a perilous race to save the Hatter before time runs out. The sequel is just as visually splendid as its predecessor, but the story is underwhelming, and doesn’t hold up to its classic characters. The plot is listless, the actors bored, and Wonderland has lost much of its magic. There’s a disconnect between the source material and what has ended up on screen. Those looking for the wonder in Wonderland will likely be disappointed.

  • ‘Support for those living near Aewol LNG facility’
  • 'Support for those living near Aewol LNG facility' Kang Chang-il submits proposal at National Assembly One of Jeju’s representatives at the National Assembly has introduced a bill designed to help the area around a new LNG supply facility on the island. 강창일 Kang Chang-il’s proposal aims to to support the people who live near Jeju City’s Aewol Harbor. The bill proposes designating all areas within five kilometers of the site as an “LNG supply system zone,” and stipulating in that zone support for public facilities, training and education, welfare projects, and the arts. The cost for the support will be levied on either the companies that own the supply system or the gas distributors.

  • Scientists to study rock below Hallasan’s crater lake
  • Scientists to study rock below Hallasan’s crater lake Part of geological research in nature reserve Geologists will, for the first time ever, drill through the bottom of Hallasan Mountain’s crater lake, which is named Baengnokdam. The World Heritage and Hallasan Research Center and the Korea Institute of Geoscience and Mineral Resources are performing the study, which has a pricetag of 380 million won. It began Friday and is running through September 10th. The crater lake will be drilled in six different spots, each 20 meters deep. Researchers will extract samples in order to estimate the age of each sedimentary layer, when volcanic eruptions took place, and the climate at the time. The only other drilling ever to be conducted on the mountain was into bedrock at an elevation of 600 to 700 meters above sea level. 한라산 백록담 퇴적층 '시추' 연구 제주도가 한라산천연보호구역 지질 조사를 위해 사상 처음으로 한라산 백록담 시추 작업을 실시합니다. 세계유산본부 한라산연구원과 수행기관인 한국지질자원연구원은 사업비 3억 8천만 원을 들여 내일(2일)부터 10일까지 한라산 백록담에 시추장비를 투입해 6개 지점에 20미터 깊이로 시추를 진행할 예정입니다. 제주도는 시추 후 시료 분석을 통해 퇴적층 연대와 화산 분출시기 그리고 당시 기후 등을 연구할 계획입니다. 그동안 한라산 해발 600~700미터에서 암반 시추 사례는 있지만 한라산 정상에서 추진되는 시추는 이번이 처음입니다.

  • Authorities keeping an eye on Typhoon Namtheun
  • Authorities keeping an eye on Typhoon Namtheun May indirectly affect local conditions Saturday Meteorologists are keeping a close watch on Namtheum, the 12th Pacific typhoon of the year, which is currently south of Okinawa, Japan and moving northwest. The storm is expected to reach southern Kyushu island over the weekend. It may indirectly affect Jeju as its center is expected to reach 370 kilometers east-southeast of Seogwipo on Saturday. The National Typhoon Center says Namtheum may change course as the day progresses. It is advising residents to keep abreast of the latest weather developments. KCTV provides real-time typhoon updates on channel 20. 제12호 태풍 남테운 발생…이동경로 '관심' 일본 오키나와 해상에서 제 12호 태풍 '남테운'이 발생하면서 이동경로에 관심이 쏠리고 있습니다. 열대저압부에서 시작해 오늘 오전 약한 소형 태풍으로 발달한 남테운은 현재 일본 오키나와 남쪽 280km 부근 해상을 지나 시속 27km의 속도로 동북동진하고 있습니다. 오는 3일에는 서귀포 동남동쪽 370km 부근 해상까지 진출하며 제주에 간접영향을 줄 것으로 보입니다. 국가태풍센터는 아직 태풍의 세력과 이동경로가 유동적인 만큼 앞으로 발표되는 기상정보에 주의를 기울여 줄 것을 당부하고 있습니다. KCTV는 디지털 채널 20번을 통해 태풍의 이동경로를 실시간으로 전해드리고 있습니다.

  • Seawater salinity level, temperature back to average
  • Seawater salinity level, temperature back to average 'Recent wind and waves helped return conditions to normal’ The salinity level and temperature of the seawater off Jeju’s western coast have returned to normal after weeks of low-salinity and higher-than-usual temperatures. The Jeju Ocean and Fisheries Research Institute recently finished testing the water in 17 locations, from Sagye-ri, Andeok-myeon to Gwideok in Hallim. Temperatures have dropped five degrees Celsius over the past week to between 25 and 27 degrees. Salinity levels have risen five parts per thousand to anywhere from 29 to 32 ppt. Researchers say it is now safe to say that the low-salinity phenomenon is behind us. They credit the recent high waves and strong winds as having having helped return the salinity and temperatures to normal ranges. 서부연안 수온·염분 정상수치 회복 제주서부연안과 마을어장 주변 바닷물의 수온과 염분이 정상수치를 회복했습니다. 제주도해양수산연구원이 최근 안덕면 사계리에서부터 한림 귀덕까지 17곳을 조사한 결과 수온은 25도에서 27도, 염분농도는 29에서 32퍼밀로 관측됐습니다. 이는 지난 주보다 수온은 최대 5도가 낮아지고 염분은 5퍼밀 이상 높아진 것으로 연안 고수온 저염분 현상이 사라진 것으로 판단하고 있습니다. 연구원은 최근 높은 파도와 강한 해풍으로 바닷물이 섞이면서 정상 수온과 염분 농도를 회복한 것으로 보고 있습니다.

  • Jeju: A to Z (Jungmun Saekdal Beach)
  • This week on Jeju: A to Z, Todd Thacker takes a brief look at Jungmun Saekdal Beach, another of Jeju’s famous beaches ? and just in time as the temperatures start to drop. Of all the beautiful natural sights Jeju has to offer during the summer, the island’s beaches certainly stand out. And of those, Jungmun Saekdal Beach is considered by many to be head and shoulders above the rest. [Slug CG] 500 meters of pristine sand, beautiful seascape A 500-meter slice of sand running east and west along the southern coast, Jungmun is famous for its multicolored sand. Look closely and you’ll see black, white, gray and even red. The beach is framed between the ocean and a tall cliff blanketed by a pristine forest, giving the beach a remote, wild feel. [Slug CG] Cleanest water among 44 beaches nationwide Jungmun Saekdal Beach has earned a well-deserved reputation as one of Korea’s best beaches. Researchers have found it to have some of the cleanest water among a selection of 44 beaches nationwide. [Slug CG] Popular activities include surfing Its location along the South Sea and the prevailing winds make it an optimal place for surfing and wind sailing. Back in 1995 Jeju’s first surfing school was set up there. Now it is the venue for annual events like the Jeju Open Surfing Contest which back in June attracted an estimated 700 participants and observers. Jungmun Beach is also near some of Jeju’s most interesting museums, attractions, restaurants and luxury accommodations. These include Yeomigi (여미지) Botanical Garden, Sun-im (선임) Bridge, and Cheonjeyeon (천재연) Falls. [Slug CG] Todd Thacker Located on the opposite side of the island from Jeju City, Jungmun Saekdal Beach ? at 50 minutes or so ? may be a bit of a drive. But you could also think of the trip as an adventure ending with a very memorable reward. Todd Thacker KCTV
