Tensions are rising as the timing of the execution of the second arrest warrant for Yoon Suk Yeol's president is near.

The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is open to the possibility of executing warrants not only on weekdays but also on weekends.

What's the atmosphere of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit?

[Reporter]
There has been no tangible move 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.

Director of Airborne Oh Dong-woon also came to work around 9 a.m. today.

There was no answer to reporters asking if the warrant was executed today or if it was right to discuss personnel arrangements with the police.

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 execution 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 for and against impeachment will be held 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.

Although the possibility of executing a warrant over the weekend seems small, 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 has no effect on the execution plan of the arrest warrant.

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.

On the contrary, there are observations that the security service will gather more around Kim Sung-hoon, the so-called "hardliner," and in this case, it will be difficult to avoid a strong conflict even when re-executing it.
