The process of executing the second arrest warrant for President Yoon Suk Yeol was significantly different from that of the first attempt.

The bodyguard, which hit the human barrier at the time, paved the way without much resistance this time, but the police's pressure strategy seems to have affected it.

Reporter Bae Min-hyuk reports.

The police cut off the barbed wire, put a ladder on the bus, and quickly crossed the first cordon.

But the bodyguard doesn't have much resistance.

It is a marked difference from the long-standing confrontation between the security service staff at the time of the first warrant execution.

Since then, there have been no deterrents from the security services even as large police forces enter and move into the precinct.

"You came in a beautiful way. It came a lot."

In contrast to previously having to withdraw in five hours amid fierce resistance from the security services,

In the end, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit and the police arrested President Yoon Suk Yeol by passing through the second and third lines without difficulty.

Previously, only 150 people had to face more than 200 bodyguards and military personnel, but some say that the large-scale offensive, which involved 1,100 police alone, dampened the bodyguard's willingness to protest in advance.

In particular, there is an analysis that the police's strong-temperature strategy, which emphasized that they would deal with employees of the security service who cooperate by pressuring hard-line leaders, worked.

The warning that obstructing the execution of a warrant could lead to criminal punishment for obstructing the execution of special public affairs and the possibility of losing public service qualifications also appears to be the background of the faltering hard-line leadership system.

However, the police did not arrest Kim Sung-hoon, the deputy head of the security service, and Lee Kwang-woo, the head of the security headquarters, where the arrest warrant was issued.

They decided to attend with their lawyers after completing security until the transfer of President Yoon, but the police are expected to continue their investigation into the hard-line leadership in the security office.
