On a recent broadcast of 'Get it Beauty', the stunning Honey Lee talked about her rather troubled childhood during which she suffered an overwhelming inferiority complex from always being overshadowed by the female figures in her family, particularly her mother and older sister.

The actress spilled honestly, "Enjoy the storm of your adolescence. I think I suffered through it more deeply and longer than others. So I understand those with an inferiority complex. I went to the same school as my mother and sister, studied the same thing they did, and even played the same instrument that they played. Their walls were too formidable for me to overcome. Even though I wanted to escape [their shadows], I couldn't. So I really struggled [to find myself]."


Honey Lee even talked about rebelling by leaving home when she was still in middle school to become a backup dancer, revealing that she was "hit a lot" for her disobedience. She added, "Tae Kwon Do, golf, scuba diving, singing, inline... I've tried it all. I felt like the ugly duckling of the family." 


The actress concluded, "Truthfully, [the struggles of my youth] became great nourishment. I wonder what would have happened had I not overcome all my doubts. I want to tell everyone that you are the one that should know yourself the best."
