Lee Hyo-Ri is a South Korean singer, record producer, activist, actress, and television presenter. Dubbed the "Nation's Fairy" during her Family Outing days, Lee began her career as part of the popular South Korean pop girl group Fin.K.L As the eldest member, she was the leader of the group. Lee was discovered while taking sticker pictures with her friends and was the last member to join Fin.K.L, just before their debut in January 1998. Fin.K.L debuted officially on May 22, 1998, with their first single "Blue Rain". The second release from their debut album To My Boyfriend, became the first of their multiple number-one hits. Fin.K.L became one of the most popular and successful South Korean pop groups of all-time, rivaling fellow popular girl groups S.E.S.

A year after Fin.K.L's fourth studio album Forever, her solo debut album was released in August 2003, entitled Stylish. The lead single "10 Minutes" became one of her signature hits and the singer nearly swept the Daesangs, the most prestigious South Korean music award, winning more than seven of them, including three of the four most prestigious Daesangs. Stylish sold 144,182 copies in South Korea alone, according to the Music Industry Association of Korea in 2003. Her popularity in her various activities eventually was dubbed the "Hyori Syndrome" in South Korea, and the Korean Media nicknamed 2003 "The Year of Hyori" as she was rarely out of the news all year.

The Beyoncé-like diva in Korea metamorphosed after declaring a hiatus due to plagiarism on her fourth album. building a new legacy for herself on thumping jams as bold and outspoken as she is. Her sound has evolved throughout her career: She's gone from dousing her hooks in a K-pop cocktail of R&B, hip-hop, and electro-pop to embracing a retro big band style on 2013's "Miss Korea." But her confident lyrics are still all about asserting herself and lifting up other girls in the process.
