Immediately after the arrest warrant for President Yoon was issued early this morning, supporters of President Yoon stormed into the court building at the Western District Court, where the warrant was reviewed.

They smashed the court's main gate and windows with shields and plastic chairs taken from the police and assaulted police officers, making it difficult to find an example of a constitutional history.

Yoon, he explained, "We will thoroughly investigate and find him (the writer of the post) and do our best to protect his personal safety."

"This is a serious challenge to the rule of law," the acting president said. "We will continue to strictly deal with illegal and violent protests."
