The president of Yoon Suk Yeol is now being held in a detention center, right?
[Reporter]
The Ministry of Justice said President Yoon Suk Yeol, who has been on trial since his arrest, went through a formal admission process at a Seoul detention center today.
He also explained that he left the waiting room for the suspect, who was staying after executing the arrest warrant on the 15th, and moved to a general detention center.
It is said that President Yoon took so-called "Mugshots" like ordinary inmates, checked personal information, and underwent a simple physical examination.
In addition, he is now required to live in a khaki-colored embroidery with a death penalty number written on it, not in plain clothes, but is expected to be held in solitary confinement considering that he is the incumbent president.
In light of 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.
If we leave the detention center to be investigated by the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit in the future, we will use the Ministry of Justice's convoy rather than the security service vehicle as we did yesterday.

Supporters rally keeps getting fiery, how's the situation in the detention center?
[Reporter]
Next to me, about 100 supporters who gathered at the news of President Yoon's arrest have been holding rallies since the morning.
He is waving the Korean national flag and the American flag, raising his voice and shouting "Presidential Release," but he is raising his voice even more as he enters the evening.
He also argued that it was a legitimate judgment for unfair warrant issuance for breaking into the Western District Court early this morning and causing violence.
There are also occasional dangerous situations, such as disturbing and threatening reporters filming protesters behind the fence.
Nearby, some people are calling for the impeachment of President Yoon.
Earlier this morning, when the news of the issuance of an arrest warrant for President Yoon spread, he could also be seen cheering and welcoming at the scene.
The police are focusing on maintaining order by putting two task forces around the detention center to prevent clashes between the two sides.
As both opposing and pro-impeachment have reported daily rallies, tensions around the detention center are expected to continue for the time being.
