He is the first South Korean male figure skater who stood on the podium and won gold at ISU events. Also, he is the first Korean male skater to qualify for the ISU Junior Grand Prix Final.

Lee June-hyoung was born in Seoul, South Korea. His mother, Oh Ji Youn, is a figure skating coach.

Lee was coached by his mother from the age of seven to 14.

Chi Hyun-jung has been his coach since 2010. Lee placed 3rd at both the Korean Junior Grand Prix qualification trials and the Korean Nationals.

The 2011–12 season was Lee's breakthout season. Lee included 5 different triple jumps in his program and improved jump consistency. In August, He was selected to represent Team Korea by placing 2nd at the Korean Junior Grand Prix qualification trials. At Asian Trophy, he placed 2nd at the junior discipline. Lee debuted in the 2011–12 Junior Grand Prix series at JGP Latvia and placed 4th. At the second assignment in Milan, Italy, he won bronze and became the first South Korean male figure skater to medal at an ISU event. He won the Korean Ranking competition in November and placed 4th at the Winter Youth Olympics. He placed 18th at the World Junior Championships.

He started the season with a new free program, "Queen medley", but returned to his previous season's free program, "The Barber of Seville", at his first Junior Grand Prix event. He won South Korean Nationals, but could not compete at the Senior World Championships because he did not meet the minimum technical score requirement for the event. He placed 13th at the World Junior Championships. In February, he landed a triple Axel jump during the short program segment at the Four Continents Championships.
