The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, which has reissued the arrest warrant for the president of Yoon Suk Yeol, continues to struggle with the timing of the re-enforcement.
As the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit has not broken its will, the president is also raising the level of opposition.
There is a reporter on the scene.
Reporter Kim Chulhee!
First of all, the timing of the second warrant execution by the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, has the strand come out?
[Reporter]
Today, our reporters are watching the situation even before 5 a.m., but there is no clear movement yet.
It is known that the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is establishing a detailed execution plan by continuing working-level consultations with the police.
For the success of execution, we also keep all related information such as the expiration date and execution time of the warrant.
However, the validity period of the warrant has been secured longer than 7 days of the previous warrant.
In addition, it is said that the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit secured a prescription for about three weeks before the Lunar New Year holiday.
As we have enough time, it is highly likely that we will start enforcement after carefully preparing.

The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit has repeatedly expressed its strong will to arrest him, right?
[Reporter]
Yes, Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit Director Oh Dong-woon attended the National Assembly's questioning yesterday and referred to the president as a "suspect of the head of the civil war."
At the same time, he emphasized that he wants to faithfully engage in the execution of the arrest warrant.
Even lawmakers have made it clear that if they block their execution, they can be arrested on charges of obstruction of justice, and that the Presidential Security Service has no basis to resist the execution of the warrant.
He then warned that preventing the execution of the arrest warrant itself would raise concerns about escape.

Please also tell President Yoon's position.
[Reporter]
At a foreign press conference held yesterday, President Yoon continued to argue that the execution of arrest warrants by the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit was illegal and could not respond.
He also said that if the warrant is executed strongly, it could lead to civil war, and that President Yoon and his lawyers share this perception.
He also said he was worried that the president would not achieve the purpose of martial law to announce that it was a national crisis.
However, he added that if there is an arrest warrant issued by the Seoul Central District Court or the Constitutional Court's decision to dismiss it, he will accept it.
So far, the airlift has delivered it to you.
