Professor Chung Kyung-sim, the wife of the former Attorney General, arrived at the Seoul Central District Court for a warrant for arrest warrant around 10:10 am today.

Since the start of the investigation, he has appeared in the press for the first time.

Professor Chung in a gray suit put his hands together and bowed, answering the reporter's questions briefly.

Professor Chung Kyung-ho, the deputy chief justice of the Seoul Central District Court, began at 11:00 am and Chung's warrant was held for almost seven hours and was not completed until about 5:50 pm.

The warrant was ordered in the morning for alleged corruption and in the afternoon for private equity and the destruction of evidence.

The prosecution stressed the need for arrest, saying that Chung's charges are not light, and Chung is said to have denied all 11 charges the prosecution applied.

After completing the warrant, Professor Jung went to the Seoul detention center without saying anything, wearing an eye patch on his right eye and going out of court.
