President Yoon Suk Yeol has made his position, asking public officials to fulfill their duties, saying that he will stop his hard and rewarding journey after the impeachment bill was passed by the National Assembly.

When the impeachment resolution arrives at the presidential office soon, President Yoon's duties will be suspended.

I'm connecting with the reporter.

Reporter Cho Yong-sung, what position did President Yoon take on the results of the vote?

President Yoon made his position a little while ago with a video recorded at his official residence,

Seeing the National Assembly's impeachment motion passed today reminded me of June 29, 2021, when I first declared my participation in politics,

said that liberal democracy and the rule of law in the country had collapsed.

In the meantime, the despair of self-employed people and the frustration of young people filled the country, and he/she recalled that he/she entered politics with national aspirations.

When I listened to the difficult situation and solved the people's problems little by little, I felt great happiness.

I'm frustrated that my efforts so far will go to nothing, saying that I stopped my hard but happy and difficult but rewarding journey for a while.

The journey to the future, which has been with the people for the past two and a half years, should never stop, he said. It is a difficult and difficult time for public officials, but I hope they will keep their positions and fulfill their duties without wavering.

Now, I hope you will pay attention and efforts to improve political culture and institutions so that the politics of runaway and confrontation can change from the politics of deliberation and consideration.

At the same time, he said he believes in the potential of the people and concluded that we should all join forces for the liberal democracy and prosperity of the Republic of Korea.President

Yoon made a 29-minute statement two days ago, so there was no additional position, but he reversed this and made this separate position.

Soon, when the impeachment resolution is delivered to the presidential office here in Yongsan, the president's exercise of authority will be suspended immediately.

If the president's duties are suspended, Prime Minister Han Deok-soo will act on behalf of him in accordance with Article 71 of the Constitution.

So far, I'm YTN Cho Yong-sung in the presidential office in Yongsan.
