As the president of Yoon Suk Yeol has refused to comply with the demands of investigative agencies to attend, some politicians are calling for a forced investigation.
It is unclear whether President Yoon, who denies the allegation itself, will comply with the third summons, but the difficulties of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, which is struggling to investigate, are deepening.

As President Yoon Suk Yeol refused to comply with the summons notification of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit following the prosecution, interest in whether to investigate is growing.
The method of arresting a warrant or requesting an arrest warrant and executing it is discussed.
[Park Gyun-taek / Rep. of the Democratic Party of Korea (24th): It's not coming out, but do you ask for an arrest warrant or not?]
[Dongwoon Oh / Senior Civil Servant Crime Investigation Director (24th): No policy has been decided on that part.]
The Cho Kuk Innovation Party criticized President Yoon for visiting the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit and taking time to investigate when he did not appear even after 10 o'clock when he notified him of the summons.
[Hwang Un-ha / Cho Kuk, member of the Innovation Party: The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is hesitating to request an arrest warrant. He is still talking about the arrest warrant and talking about it far from the people's hearts.
President Yoon Suk Yeol denies allegations of insurrection itself,
[Seok Dong-hyun / Yoon Suk Yeol Presidential Legal Adviser']: Where is the investigative agency that has the authority to conclude that this is a crime of rebellion?]
The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit seems to be carefully considering how to respond to President Yoon's refusal to summon.
An official from the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit said it would not take long to go into the next process, but said there was still much to consider about the arrest warrant.
Analysts say that the arrest warrant may be rejected by the court, and even if it is issued, the burden is high, such as the possibility of a conflict with the security service.
If you speed up the forced investigation beyond the usual procedures and the results are not good, there may be headwinds.
As a result, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is expected to notify President Yoon of the third summons, but it is a burden that it is unclear whether the president will comply with it.
Earlier, President Yoon's side stated that the Constitutional Court's impeachment trial takes precedence over the investigation.
On top of that, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, which has difficulty in investigating President Yoon, is deepening its troubles at a time when demands for a forced investigation are growing.
