Controversy over the execution of an arrest warrant against President Yoon Seok-yeol continues. President Yoon rejected the arrest warrant and demanded investigative procedures befitting his status as a sitting president. Park Jong-jun, the chief of the Presidential Security Service, responded to three summonses, but experts say that lawful execution of the warrant will be difficult without the president's voluntary appearance. Former lawmaker Jung Ok-im judged that the security chief did what he could do and responded to the summons, but argued that if the president does not voluntarily appear, securing his person will become inevitable. Former lawmaker Kim Yu-jung criticized that the president must stand before the law, and emphasized that insisting on procedures befitting the nation's dignity is actually a case of turning the tables on oneself. Police plan to execute the arrest warrant by mobilizing 1,000 investigators. The situation appears to vary depending on whether the president voluntarily appears.
