Lee Yong (; ; born 24 December 1986) is a South Korean former professional footballer who played as a right-back.
Lee grew up in Hanam, a city on the outskirts of Seoul. He completed his schooling in Seoul due to the lack of schools with established football programs in Hanam at that time. One of his elementary school classmates was his neighbor and future national teammate Park Joo-ho.
As he was a "late bloomer", Lee was not heavily scouted as a high school senior and spent a gap year training before trying out again the next season. He was eventually accepted into Chung-Ang University.
Lee was drafted by Ulsan Hyundai FC in 2010.
In 2015 Lee enlisted for mandatory military service and assigned to the Korea Armed Forces Athletic Corps (Sangju Sangmu). His contract with Ulsan Hyundai was not extended and he was traded to Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors FC after he was discharged from the military.
In May 2018 he was named in South Korea's preliminary 28 man squad for the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia.
