Lee studied in the Jeonju Jungsan Elementary School, the Jinju Gyeonghae Girls' Middle School and the Jinju Sunmyung Girls' High School. Her twin sister Lee Jae-yeong is also a national volleyball player.[10]
The sisters were both suspended indefinitely by their club after being anonymously accused of bullying online.[11] They have however claimed that many of the bullying accusations made towards them were false, and plan on taking legal action against the anonymous author of the online post.
