What happened?

I am writing a markdown on VScode using the latest jupyter extension and receive an error message "Error: Expected node of symbol group type, but got node of type cr" (on ipynb)

This markdown works well on Jupyter lab/ notebook and fails only on VScode:
$$
V(S) = \left{\begin{array}\ f(S) + \lambda, & S \geq K_0 \
h(S) + \lambda, & S \leq K_0 \end{array}\right.
$$
