Pres. Yoon spent first night at Seoul Detention Center after being questioned

President Yoon wrapped up the first day of questioning before being moved to Seoul Detention Center.

That will be his home until questioning by investigators comes to an end.

Our Shin Ha-young has the details.

President Yoon Suk Yeol was taken to the Seoul Detention Center in Uiwang, Gyeonggi-do Province at 9:50 PM on Wednesday, where he spent his first night in a cell to himself.

Yoon was taken by car from the Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials after 10 hours of questioning.

This unprecedented situation, with a sitting president being detained, has raised questions about security at the prison, but no specific rules are in place.

The Presidential Security Service has reportedly discussed security measures with the detention center.

However, an official from the Ministry of Justice said discussions about Yoon's security are confidential and cannot be confirmed.

The room, about 10 square meters, is reported to have a toilet, toilet, television, foldable mattress, and other essentials.

There is no bed, but the floor is heated, with CCTV monitoring the room.

Former Presidents Roh Tae-woo and Park Geun-hye were held at this Detention Center, and currently, former minor opposition party leader Cho Kuk , sentenced for academic fraud involving his children, is serving time there.

Yoon's breakfast on Thursday morning included cereal, boiled eggs, nuts, and milk.

Until a decision is made on another type of arrest warrant seeking a longer period of detention, Yoon will be moving back and forth between the CIO for questioning, and the detention center.
