Recently, Zico has become a hot topic, centered around the BBC World Service‘s new documentary about the Burning Sun scandal.
Zico was not charged with any crimes, but he was linked to Jung Joonyoung’s sex chats after mentioning the former star’s phone as being “golden” on a program. Zico denied having any knowledge of Jung’s crimes, saying that the phone he mentioned had nothing to do with the case.
The phone that I mentioned on the show had nothing to do with this unfortunate case. All I saw on that phone was a list of phone numbers, and I haven’t contacted Jung Joon Young on a personal level in a very long time. Please don’t make any rash assumptions, and regarding the malicious comments and spreading of false information, I will take strong actions against them.

However, with the documentary’s release, suspicion towards Zico surfaced again.
Accusations Against Zico Resurface After BBC’s “Burning Sun” Documentary
Recently, due to focus placed on Zico again, an alleged post made by the star’s mother has surfaced online.
In a post alleged to be made by Zico’s mother to his teacher while the star was in school in 2008, his mom mentions that he was caught swearing at girlfriend, even kicking a desk in anger.
With Jiho’s homeroom teacher
^^Not too long ago, I heard that he got caught swearing at his top-student girlfriend (who was being a b*tch, according to him) and kicking her desk.
His homeroom teacher saw a glimpse of his typical HOT temper… Haha. It seemed like his actions hurt the teacher’s feelings, and she was still upset with him… ^^
Jiho, you should apologize and tell her what you did was wrong… Although, I think you were right to teach “the b*tch” a lesson. LOL.
Probably not so mom-like of me, but whatever!

The post was accompanied by photos alleged to be of Zico, his mother, and the mentioned teacher.
There has been no word from the artist regarding these allegations.
