[Asia Economy Reporter Han Jinju] The so-called 'Yoon Seok-yeol Photo Zone,' a location where Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol could be photographed, has disappeared. This is due to tinting work carried out on the cloud bridge at the Supreme Prosecutors' Office.

According to the prosecution on the 4th, the Supreme Prosecutors' Office applied film to the walls of the cloud bridge connecting the main building and the annex to block external light. The cloud bridge was a photo zone where photographers could capture Prosecutor General Yoon as he moved to the cafeteria during lunchtime, but the tinting work has made it difficult to see inside.

The Supreme Prosecutors' Office carried out tinting work not only on the cloud bridge but also in other areas within the building, such as the civil service office. The office explained that this measure was taken to block the summer sunlight, improve air conditioning efficiency, and save energy.

Some interpret this move as an attempt to prevent media exposure of Prosecutor General Yoon rather than just energy saving. Whenever there were major issues in the prosecution, photographers and videographers gathered to capture Yoon's expressions, but with the previously transparent windows now covered with dark film, such scenes are expected to become rare.

A prosecution official stated, "This work is insulation construction carried out along with the civil service office to reduce heat and save energy."
