summary of his career so far

Lee was the Asian Football Confederation's Asian Young Footballer of the Year in 2019, the same year that he won the 2019 FIFA U-20 World Cup's Golden Ball award. Lee's team finished runner-up during the event. He also won the Copa del Rey with Valencia during that season.

On 17 September 2019, Lee made his UEFA Champions League debut as a late substitute for Rodrigo in a 1–0 win against Chelsea, becoming the youngest ever Korean to debut in the competition at the age of 18 years and 6 months, a record previously held by Jeong Woo-yeong. He also became the 5th youngest ever to debut for Los Ches in the same competition.[8] On 25 September 2019, he scored his first La Liga goal in a 3–3 draw against Getafe, to become the youngest non-Spanish to score for Valencia, aged 18 years and 219 days old, breaking the previous record of Mohamed Sissoko who scored in the 2003–04 UEFA Cup; and the third youngest ever, only behind Juan Mena and Fernando Gómez.[9][note 2] His record as the youngest non-Spanish goalscorer for Valencia was broken the following season by American teammate Yunus Musah

On 30 August 2021, fellow La Liga club Mallorca confirmed the free transfer of Lee, signing on a four-year contract.[15] On 22 September 2021, he scored his first goal for the club in a 6–1 La Liga loss against Real Madrid.[16]

During the 2022–23 season, Lee became one of the best dribblers in the Big Five European leagues by making the highest success rate of dribbles and the sixth highest number of successful dribbles

2019 U-20 World Cup
Lee was selected to play for the South Korea U-20 football team in the 2019 FIFA U-20 World Cup and played in every group and knockout match, leading his team to a historic runner-up finish in the tournament and scoring two goals and four assists in seven games.[21] As a result, he received the Golden Ball award as the tournament's best player

Lee received his first call up to the senior South Korea national football team in March 2019 for friendlies against Bolivia and Colombia, and became the 7th youngest to be in the South Korea national football team. On 5 September 2019, Lee made his international debut in a 2–2 draw friendly match against Georgia as a starter.[23]

Lee was called up for friendlies in September 2022 just before the 2022 FIFA World Cup by showing his evolution on both side of the ball in La Liga. He only participated in team training without appearances in the friendlies,[24] but was selected for the 26-men World Cup team.[25] He assisted Cho Gue-sung's header with an accurate cross in the second group match against Ghana
