After graduating from university, Clara signed up for the first online beauty competition in South Korea in 2004 with her extraordinary appearance.

Clara's ** stood out among many entries, she perfectly interpreted the combination of Eastern and Western beauty, ignited the yearning for ultimate beauty in the minds of Koreans, and finally won the overall championship of the competition in one fell swoop.
The jury considered this to be a triumph not only for Clara personally, but for the entire Eurasian mulatto, and to herald a possible change in aesthetic trends in the future.
Since then, Clara has opened the door to the entertainment industry.
After becoming popular online, Clara quickly switched to fashion modeling.
Her graceful figure and alluring appearance made her shine on the catwalk and was favored by major brands.
Chanel, Versace, Victoria's Secret and other A-list names are vying to sign with him, and as soon as Clara appears, even the most ordinary clothes will shine.
At the same time, she also began to shoot print advertisements and variety shows, and made a name for herself in the Korean entertainment industry.
From luxury advertisements to ice cream products, from car shows to comic con, she can be seen everywhere.
In 2006, 20-year-old Clara ushered in the first opportunity of her acting career - starring in the Korean drama "Transparent Choi Chang-so", which officially opened her film and television career.
This urban romantic comedy tells the story of the intricate relationship between two couples of men and women, and Clara plays the role of the second heroine, Park Shili, who is the perfect girlfriend image that the male protagonist desires.
As a newcomer, she dared to challenge, devoted herself wholeheartedly, and successfully created a bold and three-dimensional plump image.
With this drama, her popularity has been rising and she has gradually gained a firm foothold in the Korean entertainment industry.
The limelight continues to be popular.
The period from 2010 to 2014 was the peak of Clara's development in South Korea.
In the past few years, she has continued to star in many Korean dramas, which are widely sought after by the audience and the industry.
From dynastic court dramas to children's apocalyptic dramas, from medical themes to workplace comedies, Clara has tried a variety of different styles of roles and achieved many achievements.

2014 can be described as a "good harvest year" for Clara.
This year, she starred in two hit Korean dramas.
Among them, "My Love from the Star" tells the fantasy love story of an amnesiac alien and an Earth girl, and Clara shows her innocent side in the play.
Subsequently, the starring romantic comedy "Emergency Men and Women" received a greater response, and the drama tells the workplace romance between the hospital** and the surgeon, with an average rating of 183%, setting the champion of Korean drama ratings this season.
The role of Clara in the hospital** has also become her classic masterpiece, earning her the title of "National Sister".
At the same time, she was also selected as the second place in the "100 Most Beautiful Actresses in the World" by the authoritative American fashion magazine "Mode", ranking second and officially awarded the title of "Asia's No. 1 Beauty".
For a time, Clara became one of South Korea's first-line female stars.
However, just when her career was in full swing and in the limelight, a devastating scandal caused Clara to fall from the altar completely, and her life reached its first low point.
The unspoken rule of the door" has caused a group of opposition in the industry.
In 2015, in order to get rid of the shackles of the entertainment company, Clara planned a "unspoken rules" scandal with her father: she suddenly broke the news on her personal social account that she had been ** by the company's executives for many years, and accused the company of using routine to coerce artists to accept "unspoken rules" as a means of forcing contract renewal.
This sudden revelation immediately caused an uproar on the Internet, and Clara's fans expressed shock and concern.
However, it soon became clear that Clara's and her father's accusations were all fabrications.
This is just a shameless way for her to get out of the contract, and there are no ** or unspoken rules.
In the face of Clara and her father's unreasonable threats, the company actively defended its rights and took her to court to claim damages for reputational damages.
For this reason, Clara also deliberately hired a young actor to pretend to be her lover witness for many years.
In the end, in court mediation, Clara's lies were revealed and she had to formally apologize to the company.
The two sides reached a settlement, but Clara's reputation fell to rock bottom.
The Korean entertainment industry collectively announced to her**.

In 2016, at the age of 30, Clara had no choice but to come to China for a fresh start.
The title of "Asia's No. 1 Beauty", which was unrivaled in South Korea at the time, quickly attracted attention in China again.
Due to the frequent exchanges between Chinese and South Korean entertainment circles, Clara's negative news has long spread to China.
But her humble and unpretentious personality and excellent figure charm still make a large number of fans throw themselves into their arms.
In the same year, Clara participated in the new film "Love Saint", in which she played the playful and cute girl Yoyo changed her image and won the love of many Chinese fans.
In the following years, Clara was active in the Chinese film and television industry, and participated in many big-budget movies and hit TV series.
She regained her first selling point, and a large number of explicit costumes in works such as "Chang'an Fu Demon", "Southern Song Dynasty Strange Ghost Fan Lou", "Tang Gate: Beauty Jianghu" and other works attracted attention.
Although she often plays supporting roles, she can often easily attract the audience's attention with her excellent and stunning figure.
Walk to **, and the aura of the goddess will follow**.
Some comments say that Clara has become a "must-have artifact for costume dramas", which may be biased, but it also shows the truth.
In the newly released movie "Xiangxi Strange Things", Clara once again attracted attention with the role of **.
She plays a glamorous and mysterious witch who is a key figure in driving the plot.
With a perfect figure and excellent acting skills, she has once again become one of the important selling points of this film.

Epilogue: Bumpy and enthusiastic, ups and downs.
In more than 30 years of life, Clara has gone through the process of Internet celebrity debut, star peak, falling into **, and finally completing the second take-off of her career in China.
She may never be able to return to the moment when she was the first sister, but with her amazing personality charm and excellent body condition, Clara still has a place in the entertainment industry.

No matter how the outside world interprets the comments, Clara herself has never wavered from her path.
