Who are the presidential staff who expressed their resignation?
[Reporter]
The presidential office said that the chief and senior secretaries offered to resign at around 9:30 a.m. today.
Chief of Staff Jeong Jin-seok and Chief of Policy Seong Tae-yoon, as well as Chief of National Security Office Shin Won-sik, appear to include senior secretaries.
Earlier, Chief of Staff Jeong Jin-seok reportedly told his staff to preside over the meeting at 8 a.m. today and to consider the issue of his future collectively.
As a result, senior secretaries of the presidential office seem to have responded with their intention to resign immediately after the meeting.
This morning's meeting was reported to have been shorter than usual in a gloomy atmosphere.The resignation of the staff was expected to some extent due to the aftermath of President
Yoon's declaration of emergency martial law and the lifting six hours later, but the resignation was announced five hours after the announcement.
However, we need to see if the resignation statement is accepted immediately.
This is because if the presidential impeachment bill is handled in the National Assembly, there are practical matters to be dealt with.Criticism is expected to arise over the decision to declare and lift martial law by President
Yoon, and the resignation of the senior staff responsible for the president's assistance without dealing with the aftermath.

President Yoon postponed today's public schedule?
[Reporter]
That's right. President Yoon stopped the public schedule that he had scheduled before the declaration of the emergency martial law.
An official from the presidential office said that at 10 a.m. today, the schedule of the drug response inspection meeting that President Yoon was supposed to preside over will be postponed.
In addition, the aftermath of the emergency martial law crisis is expected to cause considerable disruption to President Yoon's schedule.
The presidential office is currently not responding to reporters' reports, including whether President Yoon will express additional positions.
Last night, the situation that restricted reporters from entering has been cleared up, and the president's office is as usual, but the atmosphere is expected to continue for the time being due to the aftermath.
