Lee Da-yeong (Korean: 이다영; Hanja: 李多英; RR: I Da-yeong; born (1996-10-15)15 October 1996) is a South Korean female volleyball player who currently plays as a setter for the South Korea women's national volleyball team.[1][2][3] She is the twin sister of Lee Jae-yeong, who was also a member of the South Korea national volleyball team until her suspension.[4]

Career[]

Lee Da-yeong started her international career similarly to her twin sister and they have played together in several international events for the national team, including the 2014 Asian Games held in South Korea, at which they clinched the gold medal.[5] Other tournaments at which they have competed in together include the 2018 FIVB Volleyball Women's Nations League,[6] the 2018 Asian Games,[7] and the 2019 FIVB Volleyball Women's World Cup in September 2019.[8]

Personal life[]

Lee Da-yeong was born on 15 October 1996 as one of twin daughters to Kim Gyeong-hui and Lee Ju-hyeong. Her mother is Kim Gyeong-hui who played as a setter for the South Korea women's national volleyball team at the 1988 Summer Olympics.[9]

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.

Secret marriage and domestic violence allegations[]

Da-yeong reportedly verbally abused and threatened to kill her husband to whom she married on April 2018 and separated four months later.[12] Lee disproved the allegations and said that her husband agreed to divorce, but as a prerequisite, he repeatedly made difficult financial demands, such as asking for 500 million won (close to 362,000 euros) in cash or real estate owned by the player before marriage.
