The article was accompanied by a photo of an article on March 1, 2020, and according to the report, PD A, a member of the SBS Drama Bureau, sprayed soju and assaulted passers-by suddenly in Hannam-dong, Seoul, and went on a rampage with the police who were dispatched after receiving a report. It is also known that a female police officer in his 20s even used abusive language that included sexual expressions that could shame him.
At that time, the police booked producer Ham on charges of special assault, injury, and insult. Afterwards, the police applied for an arrest warrant considering that the suspect had a criminal record, but the prosecution reportedly returned the arrest warrant and returned home
After that, producer Ham returned to directing through the SBS drama 『Legend』 in 2023, three years after the incident, and is currently directing 『My Perfect Secretary』 in collaboration with producer Kim Jae-hong.
With the current ratings continuing to rise due to the actors' acting and chemistry of 'My Perfect Secretary', attention is focusing on whether producer Ham's past assault case can continue to be popular.
