[Reporter]
Yes, following yesterday, the pros and cons are confronting each other with an alley in between today.Citizens who oppose the arrest of President

Yoon set up a stage and began a full-fledged rally by waving the Korean national flag and the American flag from around noon.

Let's listen to the pros and cons one by one.

[Yeo Heejin / Anyang City, Gyeonggi Province: I came here two days ago and stayed up all night for two days.... I think I hope the president will be arrested as soon as possible and bad politics will be resolved.]

[Cho Kyung-sun / Siheung-si, Gyeonggi-do: He's the president with the highest advantage. It doesn't make sense to arrest the president. That doesn't happen in the world. We're going to stop it now. [No arrest]

Since the request for an arrest warrant for President Yoon Suk Yeol, both pros and cons have gathered near the official residence.

When the arrest warrant was issued yesterday, there were cheers, sighs, and mixed reactions.

Some citizens opposed to impeachment were stopped while trying to enter the official residence by pushing the police.

The police are keeping a close eye on the situation today.

There's no sign of warrant execution yet, right?

[Reporter]
Yes, there is no movement of investigators to execute the warrant yet.

However, it is not possible for reporters to access the vicinity of the official residence, and security is strict.

The Presidential Security Service says "protection measures" will be taken in accordance with due process regarding the execution of warrants.

As the security service has repeatedly prevented the search and seizure attempts by the joint investigation headquarters, there is a possibility that it will physically prevent the execution of the warrant by the joint investigation headquarters again this time.

As the rally is in full swing, the police are focusing on maintaining order in front of the official residence.

So far, I'm YTN's Yousuhyeon in front of the official residence in Hannam-dong, Seoul.
