Lee Han-beom (Korean: 이한범; born 17 June 2002) is a South Korean professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Danish Superliga club Midtjylland and the South Korea national team.
FC Seoul
Prior to graduating from Boin High School, Lee joined K League 1 club FC Seoul on 31 December 2020.[1][2] On 21 April 2021, he made his professional debut in a K League 1 match against Jeju United.[3] In the 2022 season, he played as a main centre-back for the club before having a knee injury in a K League 1 match on 21 August.[4]
Midtjylland
On 28 August 2023, Lee signed with Danish Superliga club Midtjylland on a four-year contract for a fee reported to be around $1.5 million.[5][6] On 5 November, he made his debut in a 4–1 away win against Hvidovre, where he assisted the final goal.[7] On 25 February 2024, he scored his first professional goal in a 3–2 win over AGF. However, he made only three appearances in his first season at Midtjylland.[8]
In the 2024–25 season, Lee had played as a starter in only three matches during the regular season, but played in the last five matches of the championship round after main centre-back Ousmane Diao was sent off in the previous match.[8]
Since his last K League 1 match at Seoul on 19 August 2023, Lee made a 48-match unbeaten run before a 2–1 Superliga loss to Sønderjyske on 23 November 2025. During this time, he earned 40 wins and 8 draws without a loss at clubs and national teams excluding matches from which he was absent.[note 1]
International career
Lee was South Korea's youth international at the 2019 FIFA U-17 World Cup and the 2022 Asian Games,[9] and won a gold medal at the latter.[10] On 10 June 2025, he made his senior international debut in a World Cup qualifier against Kuwait.[9]
