contents Balogh, Clemen, and Lidický proved that the $\ell_{2}$-norm Turán problem for $K_{5}^{3}$ is asymptotically solved by the balanced bipartite construction, and they further conjectured that this construction is uniquely extremal for all sufficiently large $n$. We confirm this conjecture. We also determine exactly the maximum number of cliques in an $n$-vertex $K_{5}^{3}$-free $3$-uniform hypergraph for all sufficiently large $n$, thereby verifying the corresponding case of a conjecture of Frankl, Gryaznov, and Talebanfard. The main ingredients are Turán-type theorems for vertex-colored graphs forbidding balanced cliques, including an edge bound, an $\ell_{2}$-norm bound, and a sharp crossing-triangle theorem in the two-colored balanced $K_{4}$-free case. We also use a local modification procedure within the stability method. This reduces the exact hypergraph problems to proving that the relevant objective function increases under suitable local changes near the bipartite construction.
