Actress Clara has been ranked number 2 for the most beautiful woman in the world.

U.S. magazine, MODE, released on October 28, a list of the '100 Most Beautiful Women in The World 2014'. 

Clara came right after U.S model and actress Tania Marie Caringi at number 2. 

Right after Clara was Cristina Maria Saracut, Jessica Alba, Alessandra Ambrosio, Scarlett Johansson, Beyonce, Candice Swanepoel, Adriana Lima and Angelina Jolie.

MODE commented, "Clara,who is our magazine's first Asia cover model, has a very attractive face and bright personality. Her performances in Korean movies, modeling, acting and singing caught the attention of our U.S. judges and was a selling point in her high ranking for the chart."

Clara commented, "Being known in not only Korea but also foreign countries is such an honor. I am so thankful to my fans and will always work hard to show my best efforts. I hope to always strive to show a positive image in society and bring good influences to others."

Clara recently appeared on "Fashion King Korea 2" with designer Choi Bum Suk and was the final winner of the show.

Clara is the daughter of Lee Seung-kyu, who was a member of the band, Koreana. She first debuted under her Korean name, Lee Sung Min in 2005, but later changed her name to Clara as her stage name in 2012.

Since 2013, she has become a popular name in Korea as a rising star after her pitch at a baseball came.

Her most recent works were a cameo in the drama, "Fated to Love You" and the movie, "Working Girl."

Last year, there was some controversy over her different answers in interviews. With many anti-fans pinpointing these discrepancies, this took a toll on Clara, making her afraid and stressed to even show up on set at times.
