Yoon Suk Yeol's president is waiting in solitary confinement in a detention center, refusing to re-examine the Airborne Division.

The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit says forced inches are also possible, but there is no sign that President Yoon will come out of the detention center even though the investigation is scheduled at 2 p.m.

I'll connect with a reporter to find out more about the situation in the detention center. Reporter Jeong Hyeonwoo!

President Yoon's supporters are gathered in front of the detention center?

[Reporter]
Yes, President Yoon, who was investigated for more than 10 hours yesterday, arrived at the Seoul Detention Center at around 10 p.m. last night and spent his first night in the suspect's waiting room.

President Yoon's detention in the detention center has now been more than 15 hours.

Since 1 p.m., supporters have gathered in front of the Seoul Detention Center to hold a rally.

The rally participants are shouting slogans that President Yoon should return to his official residence and that the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit should be dismantled, but 10 units of the National Police Agency are managing the rally.

The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit said it would reinvestigate President Yoon from 2 p.m. today, but the president said he would not respond to the investigation, saying he had nothing more to be investigated.I couldn't even see the security vehicle carrying President

Yoon coming out of the detention center.

However, since the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit said it is possible to force the investigation room, there is a possibility that President Yoon will be taken out of the detention center.

It is also interesting to see whether President Yoon will attend the arrest investigation at the Seoul Central District Court at 5 p.m.

The place where President Yoon was detained is a three pyeong solitary cell, right?

[Reporter]
Yes, the suspect's waiting room, where President Yoon was detained, is a solitary cell of about 3 pyeong.

Only minimal tools such as televisions, folding mattresses, and blankets are provided in the partition bathroom.

President Yoon lives in plain clothes instead of prison uniforms, and CCTV is operated 24 hours a day to monitor the waiting room.

Today, cereal, boiled eggs, nuts, and milk were served at the detention center for breakfast, and Chinese noodles and black bean sauce were served for lunch.

Amid the unprecedented situation in which the incumbent president was detained, President Yoon insisted that the detention center should be designated as a security zone under the Security Act.

While some of the security personnel have also entered the detention center's compound, the exact security consultation between the detention center and the security center has not been disclosed.
