Jeju Autonomous Police Unit Cracks Down on 'Illegal Night Parties' at Establishments

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Chang-won] The Jeju Special Self-Governing Province Autonomous Police Unit (Chief Go Chang-gyeong) announced on the 27th that it has uncovered two illegal dance entertainment establishments operating 'illegal nighttime parties.'

The Autonomous Police Unit conducted special inspections on 11 dance entertainment establishments suspected of illegal operations from the 14th to the 24th.

This inspection mainly targeted businesses operating club-style 'nighttime parties' where mainly young people drink and dance in crowded spaces, focusing on weekend late-night hours for intensive crackdowns.

The Autonomous Police Unit booked one business owner operating an illegal dance entertainment establishment on charges of violating the Food Sanitation Act, and another is under investigation for the same charges.

Additionally, five other establishments engaging in business activities outside their licensed scope received corrective orders.

One of the uncovered establishments had registered as a general restaurant but operated an illegal nighttime party without a permit by setting up special lighting facilities and a stage, charging customers an entrance fee of 12,000 won.

The other establishment is accused of installing lighting and sound equipment in an indoor pojangmacha and encouraging customers to dance.

Go Chang-gyeong, Chief of the Autonomous Police Unit, stated, “We will continue to crack down on illegal activities at high-risk facilities such as unlicensed clubs that could affect the spread of COVID-19.”
