Born in 1992, LEE kicked off her career as performer early, starting as a child actress on TV at the tender age of four. While still only 11 she entered the movie industry with roles in the period melodrama <When I Turned Nine>, for which she picked up the award for Best Young Actress at the 12th Chunsa Film Art Awards, and the school comedy <Lovely Rivals>, alongside YUM Jung-ah. Next for her on the big screen was KIM Hee-jung’s coming-of-age drama <The Wonder Years> in 2007 as a girl who believes her busy mother, who neglects her, could not be her real mother, so she goes on a quest to Seoul. LEE stepped into the indie realm with a supporting role in the next film by KIM Hee-jung, the female-driven drama <Grape Candy> in 2012. Still very much active on television, she returned to film with a role in the omnibus sequel <Horror Stories II> in 2013 and then a supporting part in the 80s-set high school comedy-drama <Hot Young Bloods>, one of the major Lunar New Year releases of 2014.
