The preparation period for the second round of hearings in the impeachment trial of President Yoon Suk Yeol has ended.

The hearing date, which will take into account the issues of the impeachment motion one by one, has been set for the 14th.

There is a reporter on the scene. Reporter Kwon Junsu!

[Reporter]
Yes, it's the Constitutional Court.

How did the preparation date go today?

[Reporter]
Yes, the second defense preparation period, which began at 2 p.m., ended in about an hour and 20 minutes.Before the full-fledged trial, President Yoon

requested that today's application for a provisional injunction to suspend the validity of the arrest warrant be quickly decided.

He continued to argue that the execution of arrest warrants by the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit was illegal.

On the other hand, the National Assembly has summarized the issues of impeachment.

In consideration of the fact that it is a constitutional trial, the charge of rebellion in the impeachment motion, that is, the criminal law, which may be violated, was decided to be withdrawn from the grounds.

However, he stressed that the military's invasion of the Central Election Commission, seizure and search of computer room servers, and taking away employees' mobile phones, took control of the constitutional agency, the NEC.

He also argued that trying to arrest not only political figures such as the chairman of the National Assembly but also judges at the time of martial law violated the independence of the judiciary.

President Yoon did not make a proper objection to the emergency martial law?

[Reporter]
Yes, the court asked President Yoon how he put the military and police into the National Assembly during martial law.

I pointed out that the response letter continues to be delayed.President

Yoon replied that the content was so vast that he would make enough claims at the upcoming hearing.President

Yoon is being robbed as an isolated underdog, so we need time to prepare thoroughly, he said, asking for understanding.

He also stressed that he should not be a rough-and-ready judge, and that he must have enough time to hear it.

[Anchor]
And the Constitutional Court also adopted the National Assembly's request to submit investigation records, right?

[Reporter]
Yes, the court accepted the National Assembly's request to submit emergency martial law investigation records to the Constitutional Court.

As a necessary data for the impeachment hearing, the Constitutional Court needs to look into it.

I saw that the charges of rebellion were closely related to the reasons for President Yoon's impeachment.

Until now, President Yoon's side has voiced opposition based on Article 32 of the Constitutional Act, which prohibits the request for sending records of cases under trial.

With the appointment of a new judge, the Constitutional Court, which has an eight-member system, will now begin a full-fledged hearing by organizing evidence.

From 2 p.m. on the 14th, the first formal hearing date of the impeachment trial will be held.

Two days later, at 2 p.m. on the 16th, we decided to proceed with the second pleading date.

So far, I'm YTN Kwon Junsu at the Constitutional Court.
