Entrepreneur Hwang Hyun-min, formerly of the mixed-gender group Jam, unexpectedly brought up the assault incident involving Bae Jung-nam and Marco, once again placing himself at the center of the controversy.

On the 16th, Hwang posted on his social media about Bae Jung-nam: "This guy is a leftist who supports Cho Kuk. Do you know that I was Marco from 'We Got Married'? When Marco appeared as a couple with Son Dam-bi on 'We Got Married' and was at the height of his career, he beat up Bae Jung-nam at Club Eden (later renamed Burning Sun), breaking two of his front teeth. The next day, I paid Bae Jung-nam 20 million won from my own pocket as a settlement."

He continued, raising his voice: "Thinking about how hard I worked to keep that story from being published back then, I still feel like I want to beat both of them to death. There's also the anecdote where, early in the morning on the day he was beaten, I brought four thugs from the Busan Chilseong gang and told them to kill Marco. Myself and Marco faced them alone."

In fact, there have been allegations that Bae Jung-nam and Marco were involved in a brawl at a club back in 2009. The incident Bae mentioned on 'Radio Star' in 2017 went as follows: At the time, Bae happened to meet Marco at a club and joined him for drinks at Marco's invitation. While it was widely known that the brawl started because Bae provoked Marco, in reality, it was actually one of Marco's acquaintances who provoked Bae.

Bae admitted that although he was assaulted by Marco's acquaintance, he had to let it go after receiving an apology. However, he revealed that later, a completely different video surfaced as footage of the brawl, and without any explanation, eight years passed. Due to the image of having committed the brawl, Bae said his work and advertisements were all cut off, leaving him in a difficult period.

Later, when asked if he still held resentment toward Marco, he calmly replied: "It wasn't because of Marco hyung; it was rumors that grew due to the fake video, which the public accepted as fact. I have no lingering grudge against him." Through a phone call on MBC Every1's 'Video Star,' Marco and Bae announced they had reconciled warmly.

However, Hwang Hyun-min unexpectedly brought up this old story again, dragging the incident back into the spotlight. Most notably, he labeled Bae Jung-nam as a "leftist" in his exposé post, sparking heated debate among netizens. Recently, he used the term 'Destroy the Communists' in an Instagram post during the Liberation Day holiday, raising questions about his motives for revealing the 2009 incident again.
