Acting Chief Executive Choi Sang-mok said, "Do not hurt citizens and public officials."

While the Airborne Department repeatedly asked Acting President Choi Sang-mok to direct the security service to execute the arrest warrant for President Yoon Suk Yeol, Choi said he should pay special attention to prevent citizens and public officials from being injured in law enforcement.

The spokesman of the Ministry of Economy and Finance said, "It should never happen for a public official who is performing public affairs in a difficult situation to get hurt."

While the Democratic Party of Korea claims that Park Jong-joon, the head of the bodyguard, ordered the firing of live ammunition at the time of the execution of the arrest warrant for the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, and the bodyguard denies it, Choi is refraining from intervening in principle.
