Even on the first weekend when the arrest warrant for Yoon Suk Yeol's president was reissued, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit did not execute.

Under the pressure to succeed this time, he seems to be struggling considering various variables such as the absence of the head of the security service.

This is reporter Kim Dahyun.

Even on the first weekend after Yoon Suk Yeol's second arrest warrant, the Airborne Division was preoccupied with preparations for its execution.

In the case of the first arrest warrant, it was executed three days after it was issued on the 31st of last month, but this time, it has not made any significant movements for more than four days.

As the theory of responsibility was strong after the first attempt to execute the warrant failed, it seems to be weighing the timing and method of execution more carefully.

In particular, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is emphasizing investigative secrecy, in other words, 'secret investigation', for successful execution.

Unlike in the first attempt to disclose that the warrant was effective for a week, this time it was kept confidential from the validity of the warrant.

An Airborne official said the schedule could change once the execution date is released to the media.

There is also an observation that the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit has deepened its agony over the "vacuation of the head of the National Guard" following the resignation of former head of security Park Jong-joon.

The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit will choose the best execution time after reading the atmosphere within the security service.

Amid the intense confrontation between the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit and the Security Department, the National Assembly's push for an independent counsel is approaching the moment of decision on when and how the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit will execute the second arrest warrant.
