While the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit is expected to attempt to execute arrest warrants soon, tensions are rising again in front of the presidential residence.

As news of the re-issuance of the warrant spread, crowds of assembly are gathering again in front of the official residence.

First of all, how is the situation at the rally in front of the official residence?

[Reporter]
A fierce cold wave came, but the anti-impeachment rally continued overnight in front of the official residence.

When news broke that the arrest warrant was issued again last evening, supporters of President Yoon gathered one after another to guard the front of the official residence.

Participants set up tents or blocked the cold with thick coats and blankets, shouting that they would prevent arrests and protect the president.

Overnight, other citizens approached the rally site, scuffled with the rally participants, but there was no significant physical conflict.

The police are also partially controlling the lanes of the ongoing rallies and preparing for situations such as clashes.The pro-impeachment group

will hold a candlelight culture festival in front of the Constitutional Court this evening to call for the dismissal of President Yoon.

However, there are concerns that if the day comes, the number of people, including pro-impeachment groups, could increase in the future of the official residence, which could lead to clashes between participants in the rally.

Please also tell me the current security situation around the official residence.

[Reporter]
Yes, the perimeter around the official residence has become stricter than the first execution of the arrest warrant.

You can't see it from here, but it's not easy to enter because a large bus is parked across the driveway of the official residence.

People who appear to be security officials are also entering the official residence to avoid the bus after checking their identities.

If the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit attempts to re-execute an arrest warrant, it seems to be preparing to build a barrier at any time.

Circular barbed wire is still densely installed at the edge of the driveway, making the official residence virtually fortified.

Although you can't see the inside of the official residence here, it is estimated that the secondary and tertiary cordon boundaries have also been strengthened.

There are no vehicles near the official residence that are believed to be the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit or the police emergency martial law special investigation team.

However, the confrontation with the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit and the police is expected to intensify as the security service guarding the residence adheres to the execution of the warrant.
