Although the matter had already been drawn a line on once, controversy is again directed at Jun Hyun-moo after a sudden post by the so-called "injection aunt."
Broadcaster Jun Hyun-moo has once again had his name raised by a targeting remark from A, the so-called "injection aunt," who has been identified as a key figure suspected of illegal medical procedures. Jun Hyun-moo had already strongly refuted earlier involvement allegations that pointed to a problematic broadcast scene years ago by even disclosing a copy of his medical records from nine years ago. Nevertheless, with A mentioning Jun Hyun-moo again, questions are growing about why it is Jun Hyun-moo again now.
The incident dates back to December last year. As Park Na-rae's former managers exposed allegations of power abuse, the existence of A emerged, and A began to be called the "injection aunt" amid accusations of performing medical procedures on entertainers without a domestic medical license. The allegations then spread throughout the entertainment industry and became known as the "injection aunt gate."
In the process, entertainers who were close to Park Na-rae or were mentioned with her on broadcasts were successively swept up in allegations. Some, like Kee and Ipjjal-eun Haetnim, issued direct explanations or suspended activities, and Jun Hyun-moo also became the center of suspicion as a scene showing an IV drip on the variety show "I Live Alone" was again recalled.
Jun Hyun-moo explained the controversy as "part of a legitimate medical treatment process exposed on broadcast based on a doctor's judgment," and even released a copy of his medical records from nine years ago. He revealed treatment details including antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medication and even potentially sensitive prescription details, making clear that he was "unrelated to the injection aunt." It was evaluated as an extreme measure that even set aside his pride as a man, and the controversy then seemed to come to a close.
Even so, the situation reignited when A recently posted what seemed to target Jun Hyun-moo again. Observers say it could be an attempt by a party facing legal responsibility to divert public attention or to lend weight to their claims by bringing in a widely known figure again. In particular, because Jun Hyun-moo was "a person who had completely drawn a line" when he released records during the past controversy, questions inevitably focus on why his name was raised again.
Earlier, Jun Hyun-moo's side repeatedly denied any connection with A. However, as the allegations are re-spreading through the party's repeated mentions, some say the possibility of additional legal action cannot be ruled out.
Attention is focusing on why an issue that had already been explained and supported with evidence has come back to the surface, and what the real reason is that the injection aunt targeted Jun Hyun-moo again.
