online after throwing a ceremonial first pitch in a professional
baseball game dressed in form-fitting leggings. She has since been
hailed as an up-and-coming star and a sex symbol. In September 2013,
Clara drew criticism from South Korean netizens for apparently
contradicting herself on television by saying she liked to eat chicken
and drink beer in one program and stating the contrary in another.
Consequently, she closed down her Twitter and Facebook accounts.
Afterwards, she again played supporting roles in the television series

leading role in the sex comedy film Casa Amor: Exclusive for Ladies
(2015).
