Background and career

Lee was one of four child actors who successfully auditioned for the child lead roles in Jack Neo's hit film I Not Stupid.[2] His performance in the sitcom adaptation earned him a nomination for the Best Young Talent award, which he won, along with co-stars Joshua Ang and Eric Huang at the 2002 Star Awards.[3] He would go on to star alongside them in three more of Neo's films. He filmed his last movie in 2007 before leaving the industry to concentrate on his A Levels.[4] He made a brief return to acting in Neo's new film We Not Naughty, which was released in conjunction with Chinese New Year 2012 and features former I Not Stupid co-stars Joshua Ang and Xiang Yun.[5][6]
