Moving beyond her popularity in Korea, she successfully ventured into China, establishing herself as a top box-office draw with cumulative earnings of around $1.5 billion (2 trillion KRW) through films like ‘Line Walker’, ‘Fat Buddies’, and ‘The Wandering Earth 2’.
Returning to domestic variety shows after approximately 10 years, Clara plans to openly share her solo lifestyle in China, her daily routine as a passionate workaholic, and the honest stories hidden behind her glamorous image.
Producers stated, "Clara’s untold stories of pioneering her own path in China without fearing new challenges will be revealed through ‘Solo Is Better 2’. Please look forward to seeing her daily life upon her return to Korean TV."
