Human Made is a one-man agency that Lee established in May 2021. At the time, Lee had parted ways with Hook to work on establishing the agency. Human Made partnered with Hook a month later, with Lee signing with the company under a management contract.

Lee’s change in management comes several weeks after he had filed to terminate his contract with Hook. The actor had been with the agency since 2004, but entered a public dispute with them in November, with his legal team alleging that the star had not been paid for any of his music ventures over the span of his 18-year career.
