Controversy is brewing over the internal network of the Presidential Security Service, where an article criticizing the execution of an arrest warrant against Yoon Suk Yeol's president was reportedly deleted and restored.

Deputy Director Kim Sung-hoon is said to have ordered the deletion of the article but restored it as the backlash grew, and it is pointed out that internal agitation at the security office is being expressed in earnest.

Reporter Shin Yoon-jung reports.

It was reported on the 11th that an article was posted on the internal network, which only the Presidential Security Service employees can access, saying that preventing the execution of arrest warrants is obstruction of justice.

Following some media reports with three pages of A4 paper, Rep. Yoon Gun-young of the Democratic Party released it on SNS.

When the bulletin board was posted, Deputy Chief Kim Sung-hoon, acting as the head of the security department, ordered the writing to be deleted, and the writing disappeared and was restored in a day.

As some executives strongly protested, Deputy Chief Kim seems to have withdrawn the order to delete it.

At the same time, Yoon said that there were calls for Deputy Kim and Lee Kwang-woo, the head of the security headquarters, to resign at a meeting of the head of the security department.

Deputy Director Kim ordered a hard-line response to the armed conflict, and strong opposition continued.

Representative Yoon also said that on the day former Chief Park Jong-joon attended the police, President Yoon Suk Yeol called Deputy Chief Kim and Director Lee for a luncheon.

As the police are increasing pressure, including the summons of former Chief Park, the internal disturbance of the security office and signs of cracks between the leadership seem to be in full swing after the hard-line deputy chief Kim acts as an acting president.

Under these circumstances, the arrest of Deputy Chief Kim may be attempted first when re-executing President Yoon's warrant,
The atmosphere inside and outside the security office is growing that there is no justification to stop
, and the possibility of a breakthrough is also growing.
