President Yoon Suk Yeol belatedly expressed his intention to attend as the police and the investigation team of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit approached his official residence.

However, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit rejected the president's claim, saying that the execution of arrest warrants is the goal and purpose.

Reporter Kim Yi-young's report.

You can see an oblique bus car wall over a white iron gate with a phoenix insignia symbolizing the president.

It is the third cordon of the security service, the last gateway to the residence of President Yoon Suk Yeol.The investigation team of the Joint Investigation Headquarters, which passed the

1, 2nd cordon, arrived here around 8 a.m.

Presidential Chief of Staff Jeong Jin-seok and Attorney Yoon Gap-geun appeared during a brief confrontation with the personnel of the Security Service.

Prosecutors from the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit entered the government building at a guard post next to the iron gate after discussing how to execute the warrant for about 5 minutes.

All of a sudden, President Yoon said he would voluntarily attend.

Although the investigation into the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is clearly illegal, President Yoon will go out on his own to prevent a mishap.

Although he refused to comply with the previous three requests for attendance and blocked the execution of the first warrant,
When he couldn't overcome the arrest crisis at the end of
, he reluctantly changed to cooperate with the investigation.

However, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit defeated this claim in one fell swoop.

He said he had never seen a suspect voluntarily appear in a situation where an arrest warrant was issued, and he nailed the execution of the warrant as a goal and purpose.

Eventually, after more than two hours and 20 minutes of tug-of-war, Yoon was arrested and transferred to the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit.

In order to avoid the humiliation of the first arrest of a sitting president in constitutional history, he belatedly took out a voluntary attendance card, but it was ineffective.
