Park Jong-joon resigned as Presidential Security Minister...Is there a possibility of a "break in the cord"?

[Anchor]
Park Jong-joon, the head of the Presidential Security Service, who has claimed to be a escort for President Yoon Suk Yeol, offered his gratitude to the police and resigned in time for their appearance.

He stressed that physical conflicts should not occur, and attention is being paid to whether the security service's response to the police's re-execution of President Yoon's arrest warrant will be different.

Five days after he said he would devote his life to securing the president's safety, Park Jong-joon, the head of the Presidential Security Service, stepped down from his post.

It was accepted by submitting a letter of resignation to Acting President Choi Sang-mok while attending the police's third summons.

A ruling party official said, "It seems to have resigned from the earnest message to prevent a mishap from occurring due to the excessive execution of an arrest warrant for President Yoon."

The Presidential Security Service will be converted to acting Deputy Chief Kim Sung-hoon, and there is no problem with the police's response to the re-execution of arrest warrants.

Deputy Director Kim was called the "Kim Yong-hyun Line" by the opposition party and was also pointed out as leading the hard-line response during the execution of the last arrest warrant.

[Yoon Gun-young / Rep. of Democratic Party of Korea (on the 6th, MBC 'Kim Jong-bae's Attention'): They were very popular when Kim Yong-hyun was the head of the security department. It seems that there was a discussion about passing (Park Jong-joon) the security chief and providing guns and live ammunition.

However, inside the security office, there is also an atmosphere of concern about the vacancy of the command.

This is because Deputy Chief Park, who has been leading the way in preventing the execution of the warrant, is stepping down at a time when the police are raising pressure on the re-execution of the arrest warrant, and Deputy Chief Kim Sung-hoon and other head of the headquarters are also about to be summoned.

On top of that, unlike in the first execution, if even military and police security guards are blocked, the possibility of a break in the cordon is growing as it has to be blocked only by the security service.
