Please tell us the atmosphere of the site ahead of the start of the rally.

Yes, the stage is set up in front of the National Assembly, and electronic boards and speakers are prepared everywhere.

Call for the Impeachment of President Yoon Suk Yeol The main rally begins at 3 p.m., about three hours away, but the crowd heading to the rally site is this significant.

In front of the stage, people with candles or cheering sticks are gathered in their hands, and at the subway station, they are handing out pickets to impeach the president.

Some of them have already spread out their mats in front of the stage, so let's hear from the rally participants.

From about an hour later, the Yeouido area is expected to be even more crowded.

Union members of the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions gather in front of the Full Gospel Church or Yeouido-daero to hold a short preliminary rally and march in front of the National Assembly.

Traffic around Yeouido is also being controlled, right?

[Reporter]
Currently, Capitol Boulevard and Yeouido Park Road are completely controlled, and National Assembly Boulevard is operated as a variable lane.

As organizers expect more crowds than last Saturday's rally, most roads around them are expected to be closed after the start of the main rally.

The police asked you to use public transportation such as subways if possible, and to check traffic information in advance if you are forced to use a vehicle.

However, Yeouido Station and the National Assembly Station, where passengers are expected to increase, need to be careful as there is a high possibility that trains will pass without stopping as last time.
