Clara said, "'Like a Virgin' is a program that has 24 cameras following me not to just my house but also to where I work out, eat, shop, and more.  At first, it was extremely awkward.  Because there were so many cameras, I started to act somewhat self-consciously . . . However, after a month passed, [the cameras] were like friends and I felt empty when they were absent."

She said, "I had really wanted to try a reality show.  There was a certain image that was portrayed through the media and people believed that was all.  It was a bit regrettable . . . I wanted to thoroughly show them my personality.  I wanted to show my cheerful self.  That is why I am having a happy time now."

The Shanghai TV variety program centers on entertainment information and is transmitted throughout China to 50 million households.  It is a popular, representative source of Hallyu entertainment information in China.

The head producer created the catch phrase, "Interviewing the best Asian stars outside of Korea."  He said, "We are proceeding with the world's first live show centering on Hallyu stars who will honestly take part in interviews.  Fans from 180 different countries are our targeted audience."
