As the execution of an arrest warrant for President Yoon Suk Yeol is on the countdown, politicians are also watching the trend closely.
While the people protested that unreasonable arrest attempts would undermine national dignity, the Democratic Party of Korea stressed the need for prompt execution of warrants, saying arrest is only a matter of time.

Reporter Lee Jun-yeop, please tell us the atmosphere of the political circle.

Today, four weekends, the ruling and opposition parties seem to be watching the possibility of executing arrest warrants without making an official schedule at the party level.
The power of the people has repeatedly emphasized the unfairness of the execution of arrest warrants by the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit.
In a phone call with YTN, a floor official continued to argue that the investigation office of high-ranking officials does not have the authority to investigate rebellion, saying it is scary that an unauthorized investigative agency conducts an investigation.
Even if it is not a collective action at the party level, the possibility of individual lawmakers gathering in front of Hannam-dong's official residence cannot be ruled out if the execution of arrest warrants becomes visible after watching the situation.
On the other hand, the Democratic Party of Korea said it was only a matter of time before the arrest of the mob of insurrectionists, and asked the investigative authorities to execute the warrant strictly without leaving it to them.
Citing Park Jong-joon's police attendance and acceptance of his resignation, he claimed that the cracks in the security service have already begun and that the "Hannam-dong Fortress" is also collapsing.
The Democratic Party of Korea has issued an emergency order to lawmakers before the arrest of President Yoon, and encourages them to attend the Gwanghwamun candlelight vigil in the afternoon, centered on leadership and metropolitan lawmakers.

The confrontation between the ruling and opposition parties continues over the issue of the independent counsel for civil war?
[Reporter]
The People's Power will hold a general meeting of lawmakers early next week to discuss details such as whether to propose an amendment to the independent counsel law on the martial law and the scope of the investigation.
Amid the "reality theory" that a compromise without toxic clauses should be preemptively prepared, the opposition party is clearly drawing the line as a rough-and-ready method for the independent counsel on the rebellion, which has been reissued jointly by the opposition party, by questioning the scope of the investigation.
However, the leadership's agony is deepening as some say they cannot accept the "insurrection independent counsel" itself due to concerns such as a separate investigation or leakage of investigation secrets.
On the other hand, the Democratic Party of Korea says that if the ruling party does not come with a detailed negotiation plan, it will deal with the second civil war independent counsel law jointly proposed by the opposition party on the 14th or 16th.
In a phone call with YTN, a floor official said the arguments from the ruling party, such as limiting the scope of the investigation to six hours after martial law, make no sense, and the ruling party is currently considering a delay strategy.
The Democratic Party of Korea believes that acting president Choi Sang-mok will also feel burdened by the exercise of his veto, as he has solved much of the problems raised by acting president Choi Sang-mok in his request for the independent counsel's review of the rebellion.
So far, I've delivered it to you by the National Assembly.
