Most of the supporters of President Yoon Suk Yeol, who were protesting in front of the Constitutional Court following the Seoul Western District Court in protest of the issuance of the warrant, were dissolved.

Three people believed to be supporters were arrested at the scene on charges of obstruction of justice and other charges as protests intensified near the Constitutional Court today.

[Reporter]
The protest on the road in front of the Constitutional Court has ended.

Only a few supporters of Yoon Suk Yeol's president are protesting near Anguk Station in Seoul.

Today, the protests of President Yoon's supporters began near the Seoul Western District Court.

When the police were forced to disband, they began marching toward the Constitutional Court at around 2 p.m. and continued to protest in front of the Constitutional Court.

They insisted on a fraudulent election with Taegeukgi, American flags, and hand signs and called for the dismissal of the impeachment trial against President Yoon.

As supporters flocked, the police controlled the Anguk History Street in both directions in front of Jaedong Elementary School near the Constitutional Court.

Three people, including supporters who were accused of crossing the fence or obstructing the execution of official duties, were arrested by police and are being investigated near the Constitutional Court today.

Earlier this afternoon, a supporter who had a physical conflict with the police in front of the Western District Court was arrested.

Today, the number of protesters arrested by police for rioting near the Western District Court and Constitutional Court has increased to around 90.

In the meantime, the Constitutional Court is scheduled to hold hearings on President Yoon's impeachment this Tuesday and Thursday.
