Lee was also the youngest player who played for South Korea at the 2019 FIFA Under-20 World Cup. At that time, he was 18 years old. However, he earned the Golden Ball as the best player of the event. Lee helped South Korea earn second place in the tournament. Also, it was the country’s best performance at any FIFA tournament.
According to a sports directory, Lee believes that the Olympic tournament is as crucial as the Under-20 World Cup. Also, the team is working towards its goal to win the title. Although he is still eligible for the next Olympics in 2024, he thinks that the upcoming Olympics is his last.
Lee is one of the most talented playmakers in South Korea today. According to online sports betting reports, his teammates would run to open space whenever Lee has the ball. That is because they know that the midfielder can pass the ball to them when they are free.
Aside from his on-field skills, Lee believes that building camaraderie with older teammates is crucial. He loves being around his teammates. Also, he is known as someone who pranks other members of the team. So he wants to build lasting memories with them.
