Tensions are rising as speculation that the execution of the second arrest warrant for Yoon Suk Yeol's president is nearing.
The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is open to the possibility of executing warrants not only on weekdays but also on weekends.

It's still early, so how is the atmosphere there now?
[Reporter]
Today is the first weekend for the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit to re-issue an arrest warrant for President Yoon on the 7th.
Director of Airborne Oh Dong-woon, prosecutors, and investigators are scheduled to go to work today, but there is no clear movement yet regarding the execution of the arrest warrant.
The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is reportedly continuing to consult with the police and establishing a detailed execution plan.

The validity period of President Yoon's arrest warrant has not been officially confirmed, but it is said to be about two weeks.
Is there any possibility of enforcement today, which is the weekend?
[Reporter]
The warrant reissued on the 7th can be executed not only on weekdays, but also on weekends and at night.
As such, the possibility of executing a warrant is open today, which is the weekend.
However, in the case of weekends, it is considered that the number of rallies near the official residence will be much higher than on weekdays.
On Saturday, a large-scale rally between the pro-impeachment and the opposition is expected around the official residence.
The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit and the police will not only engage in friction with President Yoon's supporters who oppose impeachment and investigation,
The possibility of accidental clashes between pro-impeachment and opposition must also be examined at the same time.
Therefore, the possibility of executing a warrant over the weekend seems small, but it can be seen as a situation that cannot be completely ruled out.

The resignation letter of Park Jong-joon, the former chief of security who was investigated by the police yesterday, was accepted.
Will it affect the execution of arrest warrants by the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit?
[Reporter]
The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit believes that the resignation of former Chief of Security Park Jong-joon after being investigated by the police will not affect the execution plan of the arrest warrant.
There is no change in faithfully executing the arrest warrant for President Yoon in accordance with the law and principles.
However, it is also true that some observers say that the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit may consider the fact that the internal atmosphere of the Security Service has become somewhat cluttered due to the vacancy of the head.
The presidential security service will be converted to the acting deputy chief Kim Sung-hoon.
Whether Deputy Chief Kim will comply with the police's summons today could also be a variable in the move of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit.
If Deputy Chief Kim does not comply with the summons today, there is a possibility that Deputy Chief Kim will be arrested when the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit executes the warrant soon.
However, there are observations that the security service will gather more around Deputy Chief Kim, the so-called "hardliner," and in this case, it will be difficult to avoid a strong conflict even when re-executing it.
