On July 8, 2025, Lee Dong-gyeong scored his first goal for the national team in four years during a match against China. His goal boosted the team’s strong midfield and showed that he is back in top form.
Lee became famous in 2021 at the Tokyo Olympics, where fans called him “Tokyo Lee.” While he played well, his team lost in the quarterfinals.
After struggling with injuries and a failed try in Europe, he joined the military team Sangmu in 2024. Last September, he rejoined the national team, showing great effort and spirit to earn his spot back.
