The high-ranking government official's criminal investigation office is considering whether it will be possible to conduct an investigation into President Yoon Suk Yeol even in the morning before President Yoon appears at the Constitutional Court.President Yun
said he would do his best to prevent forced recruitment by the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit and attend the impeachment hearings.
For more information, connect with reporters to find out. Reporter Kim Dahyun! President Yoon
said he would appear at the Constitutional Court at 2 p.m.
Time seems to be tight, but why is the Airborne going through the morning investigation?
[Reporter]
The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit seems to be looking into whether the investigation will be possible even this morning, as there is not much time left before the case is handed over to the prosecution.
After the job offer failed yesterday, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit also said it will continue to carry out criminal proceedings, including retrying forced jobs.
Although the method and timing have not been confirmed yet, there is an open possibility of attempting an investigation before 2 p.m. at the Constitutional Court.As there is a high possibility that President
Yoon will not respond, even if he tries to investigate, there seems to be a greater possibility of forced recruitment or door-to-door investigation than the summons notification method.Seok Dong-hyun, a lawyer for President Yoon
, posted a message on social media a while ago, mentioning the possibility
He said he would do his best to prevent unfair forced recruitment and allow the president to attend impeachment hearings through interviews with lawyers.

Please reorganize the situation where the forced recruitment failed yesterday.
[Reporter]
At around 3 p.m. yesterday, a day after President Yoon Suk Yeol was arrested, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit sent six people, including prosecutors and investigators, to the Seoul Detention Center to try to force them into custody.This is because President
Yoon refused to comply with the summons investigation one after another except on the day of his arrest on the 15th.
However, as President Yoon did not respond to the forced recruitment attempt, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit suspended the recruitment at around 9 p.m. last night, six hours later, in accordance with human rights protection regulations.
It seems that it cannot be enforced if the suspect does not agree to the late-night investigation.It is understood that President
Yoon was interviewing his lawyer, saying he was preparing for today's impeachment trial.

If the investigation is not carried out, there will be a lot of difficulties in the investigation.
What will happen to the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit in the future?
[Reporter]
There is a possibility that the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit may try to investigate the detention center on a business trip if it is deemed difficult to find a compulsory recruitment.
In fact, in the case of former presidents who were arrested in the past, most of them were conducted in detention centers and prisons due to security issues.
The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit explained that since it is a principle to conduct an investigation in the investigation room, it was not a door-to-door investigation but a forced recruitment first.
However, it is also unclear whether President Yoon will respond to the visit investigation because he claims that the investigation of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit itself is illegal.
In this case, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit should hand over the case to the prosecution, which has the authority to prosecute, without completing the face-to-face investigation even after successful arrest and arrest of President Yoon.
If you look at the cashier of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit alone, there is a high possibility that the case will be handed over to the prosecution around the 28th.
It is understood that the Supreme Prosecutors' Office recently asked the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit to discuss the timing of sending the case.
