Lee graduated from Seoul Science High School and holds a bachelor’s degree in Economics and Computer Science from Harvard University. One of the “Park Geun-Hye kids,” he was drawn into politics by Park in 2011, when she was head of the Saenuri Party. As a relatively young politician, he served as a member of the emergency response committee and as the leader of the innovation committee until 2016. After the impeachment of Park in 2016, he left the Saenuri Party and joined the minor liberal-conservative Bareun Party, serving as its Supreme Council Member. The faction later merged with the majority conservative party to form the current People Power Party.
