Attention is also being paid to whether President Yoon Suk Yeol will respond to the third summons notice from the Japan-based government on the 29th.

It is understood that he has not yet submitted his appointment to the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit.

I'll connect with the reporter and find out.

Reporter Youngsoo Kim!

[Reporter]
Yes, it's a high-ranking government official's criminal investigation office.

Is there a possibility that President Yoon Suk Yeol will respond to the request to attend the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit?

[Reporter]
So far, it seems uncertain.

President Yoon Suk Yeol has yet to appoint a lawyer to the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit,
The attendance request sent to
e-mail has not been checked.

However, lawyer Yoon Gap-geun, who was in charge of the "mouth" of the delegation, said in a phone call with YTN that he was not refusing to attend.

Although he asked more about the subpoena investigation, lawyer Yoon explained that he would focus only on the Constitutional Court's preparation for the impeachment trial today.

I expected to hear additional positions through representatives attending the Constitutional Court, but I couldn't because I was running out of time.
It is expected that specific questions will be available after the preparation date for the
pleading has been completed.

If President Yoon Suk Yeol does not appear on the 29th, how will the investigation proceed?

[Reporter]
The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is in a cautious mood.

It's not yet coming out, it's not a definite situation, but it's difficult to talk about and judge the next step.

However, there is an atmosphere that this third summons notice is actually an ultimatum.

In particular, an official from the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit explained that if he is not present on the 29th, it will not take long to decide on the next step.

However, as lawyers have officially begun their activities, the possibility of adjusting the date of attendance cannot be ruled out.

Let's talk about the prosecution's special investigation.

Former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun is likely to be indicted today, right?

[Reporter]
Yes, it is.

Former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun's arrest deadline is tomorrow.

Since it is Saturday, the special prosecution is likely to put former Minister Kim on trial as early as today.

It will be the first time since martial law was declared on the night of the 3rd that the prosecution, police, and the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit will be indicted after launching an investigation into the alleged rebellion.

The prosecution is at the peak of the charges against former Minister Kim in the indictment, from the head to the control of the National Assembly and the operation of the arrest group,
It is said that it will contain a structure of organized crime for the purpose of
state constitutional disorder.

I'm YTN Youngsoo Kim at the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit.
