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.

  • Growing noise pollution
  • Growing noise pollution Construction cited in 89% of cases this year Noise complaints are rising at a steady pace as Jeju’s construction industry continues to grow and neighborhoods are bombarded from dawn to dusk. So far this year, more than 700 noise complaints were filed with the provincial government. Of those, 89 percent -- or 635 cases -- were related to construction sites. The number of complaints made because of noise pollution at construction sites has risen steadily over the years. In 2014, 940 cases were recorded. Last year eleven hundred (1,100) complaints were filed. The province says it plans to install noise measuring equipment at construction sites and charge fines when legal levels are exceeded. 4. 건설경기 활황…공사장 소음 민원 급증 제주의 건설경기가 활황을 띠면서 공사장 소음 민원도 크게 늘고 있습니다. 제주시에 따르면, 올 들어 지금까지 접수된 생활소음 민원은 모두 712건으로 집계됐는데, 이 가운데 공사장 소음이 635건으로 89%를 차지했습니다. 공사장 소음 민원은 지난 2014년 940여 건에서 지난해 1천 100여 건으로 해마다 늘었습니다. 제주시는 대형 공사현장에 소음 측정기를 설치해 발생하는 소음을 실시간 측정하는 한편, 기준치를 초과한 곳에 대해서는 과태료를 부과할 방참입니다.

  • 100 more cars on roads daily
  • The number of vehicles registered annually is rapidly increasing in tandem with population growth on the island. Over the last 12 months, more than 100 vehicles a day have been newly registered. Mike Laidman reports. [Slug] Car demand growing in Jeju This is a car dealership in Jeju City. In tune with the recent population rise on the island, this dealership is receiving more and more inquiries about car purchases. Demand for electric vehicles and sport utility vehicles is also growing. INTERVIEW Kim Jeong-oh / Car dealership representative As the local population increases, car demand is growing. The number of EV buyers is also increasing. <인터뷰:김정오/자동차회사 관계자> "최근 아무래도 제주 인구가 많이 늘어나다 보니까 자연스럽게 자동차 수요도 늘고 있고 최근에는 전기차 관련 고객들이 늘고 있는 추세입니다" The number of registered cars has surged alongside the population growth. Fewer than 300,000 vehicles were registered in 2012. More than 380,000 were registered in 2014, and already, 457,000 have been registered this year. Over 40,000 cars have been added to Jeju’s roads over the last 12 months - an average of 110 vehicles per day. Tax revenues the local government earns from all these new vehicles has doubled over the last five years, climbing from 35 billion won to 62 billion won. [2 line slug] 0.76 car per capita Common to have 2 or more cars per household The number of vehicles per capita in Jeju is 0.76, the highest in the nation. It's also common to have two or more cars per family. Sync Local Both of us work and we have to drive to work, so each of us has a car. <씽크:도민> "저희는 맞벌이고 출퇴근 길이 멀다보니 두 대 갖고 있어요." Inconvenient bus routes and schedules and the rise in dual income households have contributed to the increase in car numbers. INTERVIEW Han Jae-yeong / Jeju City Automobile Registration Office In the past, each household owned a car. Now it's more common for the older and younger generations to each own one, which has led to more cars in Jeju. <인터뷰:한재영/제주시자동차등록사무소> "예전에는 세대별로 한 대씩 보유했지만 요즘에는 부모나 자식이 각각 소유하는 경향이 있어서 그것이 가장 큰 증가 요인이라고 생각합니다." Jeju’s main roads suffer from heavy traffic congestion, even during afternoon hours before the 6pm rush. The island’s parking spaces can only accommodate about 60 percent of the total registered cars, leading to a serious parking shortage. [Report] Mike Laidman [Camera] Park Byeong-joon The island’s public transportation system needs an urgent facelift,and perhaps a new policy for buyers of midsize cars over 1600cc to present proof that they have a parking space for their new vehicle. But in the meantime, development surges along, with no clear path for just where there will be parking availability. Mike Laidman, KCTV

  • Land deals decline in volume
  • Land deals decline in volume Down 56% in July year-on-year The amount of land being bought and sold on the island is on the decline, in part due to new restrictions and monitoring of real estate speculation. During the first seven months of 2016, a total of some 59 million square meters of land was bought and sold in Jeju, according to the provincial government. This is down 3.9 percent from a year ago. In July alone, the volume of land transactions dropped 56 percent compared to the same period last year… to 5.7 million square meters. The on-going crackdown on real estate speculation and various restrictions are being seen as the main reasons for the decline. 1. 제주지역 토지거래 감소...지난달 56%줄어 과열 현상을 보였던 제주지역 토지거래가 줄어들고 있습니다. 제주특별자치도에 따르면, 올들어 지난달까지 거래된 토지는 5천 971만여 제곱미터로 지난해 같은기간보다 면적기준 3.9% 감소했습니다. 특히 지난 한달간 거래된 토지는 576만 제곱미터로 전년 동기대비 56% 줄어들었습니다. 제주도는 부동산투기집중단속과 토지분할 제한지침 등으로 투기성 거래가 줄어들고 소규모의 실수요 토지거래가 주를 이룬 것으로 분석하고 있습니다.

  • KCTV: New Public Housing Rent: under 100,000 won
  • The province has officially announced its plan to build public rental housing in the Jeju Citizen Welfare Town. Governor Won Heeryong himself unveiled the plan including home sizes and monthly rents. Mike Laidman reports. [Slug] Jeju Citizen Welfare Town - Donam-dong, Aug.3 This is the Jeju Citizen Welfare Town - the site chosen for the public rental apartments. The local government recently announced it would build about 1,200 public housing units on the 44,000 square meter parcel of land. The proposed buildings would be 10 stories tall, with 3 underground levels. The project includes 700 apartment units in the ‘Happy Home’ building, as well as 80 ‘Silver Home’ units for the elderly. Another 420 rental units will be available to the general public. The Happy Home is for students, newlyweds, and families with two or more children. It features three unit types: studio, two room, or 82 square meter units. Deposits are set at 27 million won, with monthly rent about 100,000 won. The province is considering subsidizing between 50-100 percent of the deposit. The rental contract period is 6 years, but local officials are reviewing a possible extension of up to 20 years. The 420-unit Public Rental Homes will be sold to renters after five years of leasing. They will be 82 square meters in size and primarily for families who don’t already own a house. [Slug] Buildings to cover 30% of site The permitted building-to-land ratio for the site is 60 percent, but the island is planning on covering only 30 percent of the site with apartments and leaving the other 70 percent green. There will be enough facilities for all cars to park underground. [Slug] Public facilities housed on floors 1, 2 Instead of shops or restaurants, kindergartens and gyms will be located on the first and second floors. The province says it chose the Jeju Citizen Welfare Town for its public housing plan so that young residents and families who don’t have a house can have a more convenient commute as well as educational, cultural, and welfare benefits. Won Heeryong / Governor We chose Donam-dong for the project mainly due to the convenient access to services for young couples, students, and families who don’t own houses. 원희룡 제주특별자치도지사 그만큼 젊은 층과 서민에게 직장과 교통의 여건이 좋고 교육, 문화복지의 모든 여건들이 가장 좋은 곳에 무주택 서민들이 들어가는 이런 사회적 의미가 더 중요하다고 봤기 때문에... [Slug] Public housing plan included among August national projects? The public housing construction plan is expected to be included among the country’s national projects this month. Comprehensive plans will be made by the end of the year and officials will seek input from the public. When the project plans are finalized, construction will begin at the end of next year and finish at the end of 2019. Area residents and landowners near the planned site support the island’s plan. O Jae-cheon / Representative, Donam-dong residents We need a special team to avoid conflict between the government and area residents. Do you have a plan to create such a team? (Of course, we do). 오재천 도남발전위원회 위원장 마찰을 피하기 위해서는 상시적으로 임시기구가 필요하지 않겠느냐… TF팀이라도 만들 구상을 갖고 계신지...

[Reporter] Mike Laidman [Camera] Moon Ho-seong Many islanders are interested in this housing project because the rental units will be located in the heart of Jeju City. Add in reasonable rental rates, and many hope the project will help to slow the surging real estate market. Mike Laidman, KCTV
