Sung Hi Lee spent a large part of her childhood moving around from city to city, even before the start of her modeling career.

Due to Sung Hi Lee father's job, Sung Hi Lee and her family were forced to move around from Houston, Dallas, D.C., and Chicago. More of a tomboy than a little princess, and more of a school nerd than homecoming queen, Sung Hi was a very serious student and didn't have much of a social life, also due to the constant change of high schools.

Although Sung Hi Lee had originally planned to study medicine with the goal of working in sports medicine, fate had another ambition for Sung Hi Lee altogether, in different instances. Sung Hi Lee first brush with luck occurred in Dallas, when Sung Hi Lee went to a nightclub that she frequented regularly. The nightclub was holding a fashion show, but since they didn't like the models that the agency had picked out for them, they asked Sung Hi Lee to participate.

Sung Hi Lee caught the attention of one of the agents, who wanted to work with the Asian beauty. While a full scholarship student at Ohio State University, Sung Hi Lee had visited a friend of hers in Washington D.C.

Sung Hi Lee friend's friend was a Play.boy scout and photographer, who insisted on taking Sung Hi Lee's picture, and asked if she was interested in working for the magazine. For the next few months, the photographer asked Sung Hi Lee's friend if she had changed her mind as she refused at first; she eventually gave in and posed for the bunny mag.

After Sung Hi Lee's Play.boy stint, she worked as a Hawaiian Tropic model. When she went to Montreal to promote the brand, Sung Hi Lee was chosen by a Play.boy executive (who was also a judge) to be one of the 15 Hawaiian Tropic girls for a Hawaiian Tropic special by the magazine.

Still a university student, Sung Hi Lee decided that she wanted to temporarily put off her studies and pursue a full-time acting career in New York City. But most aspiring actresses in the Big Apple are also models, which was a problem for the 5'4" Sung Hi Lee. She therefore headed to L.A. to try her hand at acting and modeling.

While in L.A., she ran into a stylist at an audition, who happened to be the West Coast director for Play.boy. Three's a charm, and Sung Hi Lee posed for the magazine again, forming the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

From 1993 to 1998, Sung Hi appeared in over 12 of Play.boy's Book of Lingerie (she was the first Asian model to appear on the cover solo, in 1996) and in Play.boy Specials such as nude Swimsuits, Wet & Wild, Girls of Summer, Cover Girls, Women of Color, and Supermodels. Sung Hi Lee also graced the covers of the bunny mag's German, Taiwan and French editions.

In other magazine news, Sung Hi Lee has appeared on the covers of Working Woman Korea in 1997, KOREAM 10th Anniversary issue in 2000, and has appeared in magazines like Sport (1996) and Yolk Magazine (1998).

As for calendars, Sung Hi Lee has posed for the Pacific USA calendar in 1996 Black Pearl East Meets West calendar in 1997, 1998 and 2000, as well as the Black Pearl Sung Hi Lee calendar in 1997 and 1998.

Sung Hi Lee traveled to L.A. for more acting roles, and those she received: Sung Hi Lee had a recurring role on Mortal Kombat in 1999, and made guest appearances on shows like Black Scorpion, Queen of Swords, V.I.P., and Nikki, Nikki Cox's hit show.

Sung Hi Lee has also been seen on TV, starring in several television commercials for products such as Mountain Dew, Maxwell House Coffee, Brut, Kopyong Fashion Co., and Acer Computers. She has appeared in print ads for Sunkist Orange Juice, New Core Department Store, Miller Beer, Hilton hotels, Chrysler Plymouth, and Camel cigarettes. You may also remember her from Coolio's Too Hot video, in 1996.

The aspiring actress can also add film credits to Sung Hi Lee resume, with roles in 1994's Midnight Blue; the 1996 made-for-TV movie, Weapons of Mass Distraction; 1998's A Night On the Water and Error in Judgment; the more popular Nurse Betty in 2000; and Chain of Command and That Summer in LA, that same year.

Although Sung Hi Lee's been a popular cover and centerfold for one of the most prestigious magazines (so that she can someday prove to her grandchildren that she was a full-out hottie in her day), and has a blossoming acting career on the horizon, Sung Hi Lee hopes to return to her original ambition of sports medicine. That may be in a long while.
