Personal life

In June 2019, as part of the South Korean television show Law of the Jungle, Lee was filmed catching and subsequently cooking three endangered giant clams in Hat Chao Mai National Park. She faced up to five years imprisonment and a fine of up to 40,000 baht if found guilty violating the National Parks and Wildlife Protection laws.
