An attempted recruitment by the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, ultimately failed?

[Reporter]
Yes, at 10:20 a.m. today, a vehicle from the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit entered the main gate of the Seoul Detention Center,

In about five hours, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit said President Yoon refused to investigate anything, including on-site investigations and job openings.

Earlier, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit also set up an investigation room in the detention center with the cooperation of the correctional authorities in case the forced recruitment failed, but even this did not comply.

After all three forced recruitment failed, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit explained that it will decide after discussing future investigations or procedures.

President Yoon, who left the detention center yesterday to attend the impeachment hearings, visited the hospital and returned after 9 p.m.

Tomorrow is also expected to attend the 4th hearing scheduled for 2:30 p.m.

Meanwhile, today, the National Assembly's Special Committee on Investigation of the Truth and Reconciliation of Alleged Insurrection issued an order to accompany President Yoon and former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun.

I'm asking you to attend a parliamentary hearing, but I'm going to deliver the order to the detention center here where President Yoon is imprisoned.

How is the rally in front of the detention center?

[Reporter]
Supporters have been gathering in front of the detention center since the 15th when President Yoon was arrested.

Even now, dozens of people are waving the Korean national flag and the American flag, shouting 'impeachment invalidity', 'President's release', and 'disbandment of the Airborne Office'.

Although the number of people participating in the rally has increased in the afternoon, there have been no major conflicts.

However, the police are flexibly deploying task forces in case of emergency and controlling the assembly situation.

In particular, since the recent riots in the Western District Court, additional security personnel have been deployed to major state agencies such as the Seoul Detention Center, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, and the Constitutional Court, and are strengthening their vigilance.

So far, I'm YTN Lim Ye-jin at the Seoul Detention Center.
