On March 29, Mad Clown shared a screenshot of a comment about his new track with San E titled "Butterfly". 

The comment stated, "Seeing the yellow album cover reminds me of those fishcakes."

'Fishcakes' is a derogatory term used by Ilbe users to refer to the ones who lost their lives in the Sewol ferry tragedy. Yellow ribbons were used as a symbol of hope after the tragedy. A link to the song "Sewol Ferry" was also included in the post. 

Seeing the inappropriate comment, Mad Clown stated, "Usually, I just laugh over the malicious comments but I'm going to take all the action I can against the jerks who go over the line in regards to the Sewol ferry. I can dig up all the information with just the Melon ID, so what was this asshole thinking."

내가 보통 왠만해선 악플들 그냥 재밌네 그러면서 같이 웃어넘기는데 세월호 관련해서 이런 도넘는 짓 하는 새끼들은 진짜 취할 수 있는 조치 다 취할거에요. 멜론 아이디만 알아도 다 캐낼수있는데 무슨생각으로 이러는거지 이새끼들은
