The AP reported, "Thousands of police officers gathered at President Yoon's residence," adding, "It remains unclear whether the President will cooperate with the authorities attempting to detain him." The report also noted that President Yoon's legal team has argued the arrest warrant is "illegal and invalid."


Reuters described the execution of the arrest warrant as an "unprecedented event."


Bloomberg analyzed the situation, stating, "Political rival Lee Jae-myung, leader of the Democratic Party, has bought time for his legal battle," adding, "If the Supreme Court upholds his guilty verdict, he will be barred from running in elections for 10 years. However, if the legal process is delayed and the Constitutional Court confirms President Yoon's impeachment, Lee has a strong chance of winning an early presidential election."
