While the second arrest warrant is expected to be executed soon, rallies for impeachment continue in front of the presidential residence even today, when the cold wave warning was issued.
I'm connecting you with a field reporter, reporter Jeong Hyeon-woo!
There's still a crowd at the rally?
[Reporter]
Yes, it's in front of the presidential residence, and 200 meters away from here, there are anti-impeachment rallies.
Even in the extreme cold, some continued to hold rallies overnight, with tents set up on the roadway and wrapped up tightly.
The crowd seems to have decreased a bit at one point due to the cold last night, but it seems to be increasing again in the morning.
At the scene, there are also slogans that President Yoon should be protected against the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit and the police.
On the other hand, the pro-impeachment rally seems to have entered the extreme cold for a while.
We didn't even hold an overnight rally, but from this morning, some are signaling that they will enter an indefinite sit-in.
In the afternoon, we will gather in the driveway below the presidential residence and continue the rally like yesterday.
Participants are expected to urge the president to rush and properly execute the second arrest warrant.
Police task force personnel are also deployed at the rally site in preparation for possible accidents.
As the rally has not begun in earnest, only some shouting has been exchanged among the participants and there has been no physical conflict.

Yes, how is the situation compared to the official residence for the possibility of the second execution of the arrest warrant?
[Reporter]
Yes, I took a look around the driveway in front of the presidential residence.
Security was still tight in the face of the possibility of executing a second arrest warrant.
First of all, on the outermost side, on the side of the iron gate, the first cordon blocked by the security service during the first execution, several buses are still forming a barrier.
The iron door was also confirmed to be tightly closed except when the vehicle entered.
The security service is preparing for the execution of a second arrest warrant by putting circular barbed wire around the precinct and blocking access to some doors with chains.
It is difficult to check the situation of the 2nd and 3rd cordons further up the driveway here, but
As the possibility of mobilizing police criminal squads or special tow trucks is also mentioned in the re-execution of the
arrest warrant, the security service is expected to be more prepared than before.
