Ahead of the execution of a warrant for the arrest of the first sitting president in constitutional history, President Yoon Suk Yeol has sent a direct message to his supporters.

He claimed that the Republic of Korea is dangerous due to the reaction of anti-state forces and said he will fight to the end to protect the country.

The Democratic Party of Korea urged its supporters to arrest President Yoon as soon as possible, as it is very worrisome because it is inciting extreme clashes.

President Yoon Suk Yeol issued another public message three days after posting a memorial on social media for the Jeju Air plane disaster.

After issuing his arrest warrant, he delivered a New Year's greeting and thank-you message to the supporters who had been holding a 24-hour vigil.

President Yoon thanked his supporters, referring to them as 'patriotic citizens who love freedom and democracy'.

He has repeatedly thanked and expressed regret that he is watching the rally in person on live YouTube and is worried that his health will be damaged in the cold weather.

He then argued that the Republic of Korea is in danger due to the reaction of the invasion of sovereignty and anti-state forces inside and outside the country, and vowed to fight with his supporters to the end to protect the country.

He then concluded the article with a New Year's greeting, asking for more strength, saying that liberal democracy, in which the state or party is not the owner, but each person is the owner, will surely win.

In addition, the Democratic Party of Korea immediately issued a comment and criticized the lack of civil war as highly inappropriate, saying it was inciting extreme clashes with supporters.President

Yoon is still delusional and plotting a civil war, and he is trying to continue a dangerous runaway.

Above all, it is very worrisome to incite extreme clashes with supporters, so I urged President Yoon to be arrested as soon as possible.

Even when President Yoon suddenly issued a condolence message for the disaster, the opposition party continued to criticize him, saying he acted as if he had returned without responding to the investigation.

With the execution of the arrest warrant on the countdown, political controversy is expected to be inevitable as it repeats its claims at the time of emergency martial law, including "anti-state forces."
