Second round of impeachment trial by President Yoon...an application for a delay in the due date

[Anchor]
The second hearing of the impeachment trial of the president of Yoon Suk Yeol is scheduled today.

President Yoon, who was arrested by the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, requested that the second defense be postponed for reasons such as investigation.

I'm connecting with a reporter for more information.

Reporter Kim Dahyun!

President Yoon's attendance at the Constitutional Court has become virtually difficult, right?

[Reporter]
That's right.

President Yoon Suk Yeol's side was found to have asked the Constitutional Court to postpone the second hearing of the impeachment trial yesterday, when he was arrested by the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit.It is known that President Yoon

said that attending the Constitutional Court trial is a kind of right that should be guaranteed as a party, and that if the Constitutional Court opens its argument while the party is in custody, it violates the right.

However, the Constitutional Court official did not give a specific position when asked whether the request for a delay in the deadline was accepted.

At a regular briefing in the morning, it is expected to reveal its position on the application for a delay in the deadline.

President Yoon submitted an additional response to the Constitutional Court, right?

[Reporter]
Correct.
It is known that President
Yoon Suk Yeol submitted a second response to the effect that the decree No. 1 announced at the time of the emergency martial law was written incorrectly by former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun.

The answer reportedly said that the decree No. 1 was a copy of the example sentence when former Minister Kim had the right to dissolve the National Assembly to the former president.

It is also known that he/she explained that he/she was trying to proceed peacefully and quickly with all the procedures and terminate them at the time of the resolution to dissolve the National Assembly, but he/she inadvertently overlooked the mistake of the phrase.

If the Constitutional Court proceeds with today's deadline as scheduled, what procedures will proceed?

[Reporter]
Yes, today is the second anniversary, so in principle, the hearing can be conducted even if only the representative is present without President Yoon.

If the second pleading date is held as scheduled, it will be held at 2 p.m. today in the grand jury.

Today's defense will be conducted by the National Assembly, the claimant, stating the summary of the impeachment and the president of Yoon Suk Yeol expressing his opinion against it.

In addition, it is expected to check the previously submitted evidence and decide whether to adopt witnesses.
