Iron's lawyers said they are planning on appealing his sentence if it is too one-sided

Iron had another hearing on his violent assault to an ex-girlfriend on the 27th, where interrogation continued. He maintained his stance that he had neither hit nor threatened his ex-girlfriend because she wanted to break up with him, denied hurting himself and threatening her, and also maintained that he only hit her when requested during sex, and had not assaulted her. As Iron and his ex-girlfriend cannot come to an agreement, and Iron was not pleading guilty, the prosecutors are seeking a sentence of 1 year in prison if he is found guilty.

His lawyers said, "We cannot agree to the charges on threatening and self-injury. There is definitely a difference in reading what actually happened. We are looking into documenting wrong testimonies, and we are also considering appealing based on the sentence."

The final hearing will take place at 10AM KST on July 20th.
