Hi Dvrormt,
Usually mold is caused by condensation or dark/humid poorly ventilated conditions that aide in mold growth. For masterbedroom sometimes its due to the bathroom that is connected to the masterbedroom especially if it is used for bathing. Hot water will cause steam to escape into the master bedroom itself and cause condensation to happen at the walls and with the correct conditions molding will happen.
When it comes to aircon, a leaking/badly condensing trunking/pipings might lead to mold growth over time. Are the 2 black mold patches anywhere near your aircon trunkings/pipings or is it a near distance to the patch of wall whereby your aircon is directly facing? When the air emitted from the aircon is pointed directly at a patch of wall which is very near to the unit itself, condensation will occurs at that particular patch which in the correct conditions will result in mold growth over time.
If the black mold is anywhere near your aircon trunking/pipings, you can consider to chemical overhaul your aircon first to clear your aircon unit of any mold/bacteria/grime which could have accumulated over the 1 year. By giving your aircon a thorough cleaning will help to reduce condensation. Afterwhich it would be better that you do not on the unit until you cleared up the mold.
Mold can be rather difficult to eliminate so good luck on that.
Best Regards,
Jason Tham

Currently, I have serious mold problem in my master bedroom (one year vacant). Two 10 squared cm black mold on the wall.
Do I engage a air-con service first or do I remove the mold first? As long I do not turn on the air-con after chemical wash, is it fine to service the air-con unit first?
