As the execution of the first arrest warrant against the incumbent president approaches, the ruling and opposition parties are also paying keen attention.

The ruling party was concerned that no mishap should occur during the execution of the warrant, and the opposition party pressed Acting President Choi Sang-mok to cooperate with the execution of the warrant.

Reporter Hong Min-ki covered it.

The People's Power leadership, who visited the Memorial Park for the New Year, held a private meeting at its headquarters in Yeouido, Seoul.

He expressed concern about the anti-impeachment rally in front of the presidential residence, referring to the position of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, which said it would execute the arrest warrant for the president of Yoon Suk Yeol in principle.

Immediately after the court issued an arrest warrant earlier, the People's Power expressed strong regret to President Yoon, saying there was no fear of destroying evidence or fleeing.

However, if the first forced investigation of a sitting president in constitutional history comes true, some in the party can't help but consider "distancing" from the president.

The Democratic Party raised the pressure on Acting President Choi Sang-mok, asking him to order the Presidential Security Service to cooperate with the execution of the arrest warrant.

It is argued that the "golden time" should not be missed as it is the economy and people's livelihood that suffer as the longer the investigation and impeachment trial for rebellion charges.

In particular, he aimed at President Park Jong-joon, the head of the presidential bodyguard, claiming that what the bodyguard should protect is not a rebellion that violates the Constitution.

The leaders of the Democratic Party, including floor leader Park Chan-dae, also visited the Memorial Park as the first schedule of the new year and vowed to do their best to advance the spring of the Republic of Korea.

Amid the ongoing controversy over the appointment of a constitutional judge, the independent counsel for civil war, and the independent counsel law for Mrs. Kim, the actual execution of the arrest warrant for President Yoon has emerged as the biggest detonator, adding to the political turmoil.
