Let's go to the presidential office, the epicenter of all this.

From around 5 p.m., Prime Minister Han Deok-soo and representative Han Dong-hoon of the People's Power are said to be gathered in the presidential office.

I can read the atmosphere of something going on, and I will connect with a reporter to find out more about the current situation. Reporter Kang Min-kyung!

It is said that key figures of the government and ruling party are gathering in the presidential office.

Please organize the related content first.

[Reporter]
Yes. The presidential office, which did not move much today, began to get busy a little while ago at 5 p.m.

In addition to Prime Minister Han Deok-soo, who leads the Cabinet, the leadership and senior members of the ruling party, including Representative Han Dong-hoon and Vice National Assembly Speaker Joo Ho-young, entered the presidential office one after another.

It seems that President Yoon came to the president's office to discuss countermeasures after declaring martial law and lifting it.

Earlier, Prime Minister Han held a party-government meeting at the Prime Minister's Office in Samcheong-dong from 2 p.m. that day.

If President Yoon Suk Yeol is also in the presidential office in Yongsan, he will share the relevant information and seek a solution together.

Then, is there a possibility that President Yoon will make an additional statement tonight?

[Reporter]
So far, I can't be sure.

It is not even clear whether President Yoon, who has suspended all public schedules scheduled for today, is in Yongsan.

Even if we have a meeting with Prime Minister Han and representative Han Dong-hoon in Yongsan, it has not been decided whether to announce the relevant information today.

As the atmosphere in the presidential office is changing, the situation here can change at any time.

Even if there is an additional position, it is more likely to be an immediate response, that is, responding as soon as the situation becomes, rather than telling reporters in advance.

[Anchor]
I see. If so, let's hear about the future of the presidential staff confirmed so far.

High-level aides in the presidential office expressed their resignation, right?

[Reporter]
That's right. 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, Chief of Policy Seong Tae-yoon, and Chief of National Security Office Shin Won-sik are the three chiefs and senior secretaries, including Senior Secretary for Political Affairs Hong Chul-ho.

Whether or not to accept the resignation remains to be seen, and the biggest variable is the National Assembly.

This is because if the presidential impeachment bill is handled in the National Assembly, there are practical matters to be dealt with.

As there is no news of the resignation so far, high-level aides in the presidential office are expected to move with the government's cabinet to settle the chaotic situation so far.

So far, I've delivered it from the presidential office in Yongsan.
