With the arrest warrant issued, Yoon Suk Yeol's president is moved from the suspect's waiting room, where he has been staying, to the detention center.

The Ministry of Justice said that the same formal admission process as ordinary inmates will take place today, such as changing into prison uniforms.

I'll connect you to a field reporter and find out more. Reporter Jeong Hyeonwoo!

President Yoon's formal detention process will proceed today?

[Reporter]
President Yoon, who was arrested, must leave the "guin suspect waiting room" where he stayed during his arrest and move to a general detention center.

An official from the Ministry of Justice said that the detention center determines the time of formal admission, and that related procedures will be carried out within today.

They say they cannot confirm the specific time, but they explained earlier that it is expected after 9 a.m.

He also explained that the detention center admission process proceeds the same as other ordinary inmates.Along with the filming of

{머}'Mugshot', it goes through procedures such as confirming personal information and a detailed physical examination.President Yun

has been known to be in plain clothes so far, but he has to change into a khaki-colored veterinarian with his death penalty number written on it.

However, since he is an incumbent president, he is expected to be housed in a solitary cell, not in a space where several inmates live.

In the past, former President Park Geun Hye lived in a solitary cell of about 3 pyeong in the Seoul Detention Center, and former President Lee Myung Bak lived in a similar size solitary cell in the eastern Seoul Detention Center.

The Ministry of Justice also said that when using external facilities such as public baths, it is expected to prevent contact between President Yoon and other inmates by adjusting the usage time.

The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit has notified President Yoon to come out at 2 p.m., but if he leaves the detention center for investigation, he will use a convoy from the Ministry of Justice rather than a security service vehicle as he did yesterday when reviewing the warrant.

At the news of the arrest warrant, some supporters gathered in front of the detention center?

[Reporter]
Yes,

In front of the detention center, supporters of President Yoon have been increasing since the morning, and they are shouting slogans to release President Yoon Suk Yeol immediately.

After the news that the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit notified President Yoon of the investigation at 2 p.m., the reaction seems to be intensifying.

There is no one now, but at night, some people were gathered on one side of the detention center parking lot to support the impeachment of President Yoon.

As soon as the host heard the news of the arrest, he cheered.

The police are putting their careers into maintaining order and preventing possible clashes.

Some careers have been deployed since dawn to prepare for contingencies, guarding the main entrance of the detention center
As both opposing and pro-impeachment
have reported daily rallies, tension is expected to continue in front of the detention center here for the time being.

So far, I'm Jung Hyunwoo from Seoul Detention Center.
