With borders of various countries slowly opening and welcoming tourists despite the surging pandemic, the actress took the opportunity to spend days in Switzerland alongside her husband. 

In January 2022, the "Liver or Die" star revealed that she was invited as an ambassador for the Swiss government tourism agency. 

Lee Si Young's Instagram featured a photo of the couple enjoying the country's scenery with the caption that reads, "Swiss tourist minister invited me as an ambassador to promote the country. Met with the minister's team and interviewed and ran to the city. I will show you much of Switzerland in the future, thank you."

Unfortunately, not all were impressed with her social media activities. 

At the time, netizens mentioned that it was insensitive content pointing out that she should not promote tourism, especially since the whole world is in the middle of an ongoing pandemic. 

Some even questioned why the actress ditched COVID-19 protocols, which included wearing masks. 

Due to this, Lee Si Young was accused of using her privilege amid the health crisis while some of her fellow Koreans were battling the virus.
