Expensive clothes and even a fine job are of no use. That&#8217;s why yoga.&#8221; The brief message accompanied an update on her life.<\/p>\n<p>The photos released alongside the post show Lee leading students and demonstrating a range of yoga poses.<\/p>\n<p>Lee has run a yoga studio in Yeonhui-dong, Seoul, since last September. She teaches early-morning classes herself and, earlier this month, drew attention after posting new policies: no photos or video during class, and please refrain from requesting personal photos or autographs from the studio owner.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to her career as a singer, Lee has been a yoga instructor for 12 years and has often said that yoga transformed her life.<\/p>\n<p>Lee married
