The second arrest warrant for President Yoon Suk Yeol is also raising tensions in front of his official residence in Hannam-dong, Seoul.

Amid tight vigilance in front of the official residence, supporters of the president are also gathering to block the arrest.

I'm connecting with the reporter, reporter Lim Ye-jin!

Rallies near Hannam-dong's official residence are continuing every day.

How is the situation now?

[Reporter]
Yes, I'm standing right in front of the driveway of the official residence,
Starting from
here, supporters of President Yoon are holding anti-impeachment rallies about 200 meters away from each other.

In the cold weather, tents and tents are installed all over the road, and heating buses are also available.

Participants who stayed in front of the residence all night continued to say they would protect the president by blocking the execution of arrest warrants,
Before
, President Yoon made a song and sang a letter to his supporters.

On the contrary, a little away from here, cultural artists held a press conference calling for the president to step down.The pro-impeachment group
will also hold a candlelight culture festival in front of the Constitutional Court this evening to call for the dismissal of President Yoon.

While attention is being paid to when the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit will execute the second warrant, there is little crowd for the pro-impeachment rally now, but there is a possibility that they will gather over time.

There are also concerns that as the crowd increases, conflicts may occur between the participants of the rally.

Police are preparing for situations such as clashes by controlling one lane toward Hannam-daero and deploying a task force at the ongoing rally.

How about the border of the official residence?

[Reporter]
Compared to the last three days when the first warrant was executed, there were not many assembly personnel, so the number of task force personnel used to maintain order is relatively small,
The border around the
official residence has become more severe.

A police screen has been installed around the access road of the official residence to check the purpose and identity of the traffic,

There are several large buses parked across the street, so it is not easy to enter the vehicle.

Multiple layers of car walls are installed in the main gate of the official residence as a minibus, and the iron doors that the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit and the Security Service first confronted at the time of the execution of the first arrest warrant are also firmly closed.

In addition, circular barbed wire is densely installed not only on the edge of the access road but also on the mountain road in the precinct.

Although you can't see the inside of the official residence, it is estimated that the 2nd and 3rd cordon boundaries have also been strengthened.

The confrontation with the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit or the police is expected to intensify as the security service that protects the residence has not budged from the execution of the warrant.
