Personal life Relationships In 2003, Lee married a college classmate, but got divorced after 5 months of marriage. It was reported that the reason for divorce was familial conflict, financial disputes, and differences in personality. However, it is said that the two did not register their marriage, so there were no issues to their family register.

They were involved in a divorce dispute, with his wife taking to social media to accuse the actor of being unfaithful and uncooperative with divorce proceedings. She also alleged that he prevented her from seeing their son. Through a statement released by his agency, Lee denied his estranged wife's claims.

On February 6, 2026, Lee's agency confirmed that the couple had reached an amicable agreement and finalized their divorce.
