Looking at what South Korea "took" from China, the impact is now obvious, and the Chinese should be vigilant.
There is a small country with a small land area, and most of the culture is learned from others, not its own history. South Korea is known as the "stealing country" because they are good at absorbing the culture of other countries and transforming them into their own characteristics. Today, this approach has been quite successful and should be approached with caution.
For a long time, South Korea has borrowed traditional Chinese culture, from food to customs, and even some famous figures, it seems that they all started in Korea. Pickles, now known as the symbol of Korean food, actually originated from Chinese pickles, and there is a saying in the Book of Songs: "There is a watermelon on the battlefield, peeled, boiled, and sacrificed to the ancestors." "But South Korea promotes it as a traditional dish, and after a long time, everyone has forgotten where it really came from.
What is even more ridiculous is that South Korea actually regarded Confucius as its own private property and fabricated a lot of facts to prove this view. When Confucius spoke in six countries, the ancestors of Korea had not yet established a state. It is really incomprehensible to blackmail Confucius with such confidence.
South Korea has submitted many intangible cultural heritages such as the Dragon Boat Festival, Han costumes, the Mid-Autumn Festival, traditional Chinese medicine and many other intangible cultural heritages to the United Nations, and it seems that everything China has done to it has been ignored. The frequent disclosure of such cultural relics by South Korea is not a blatant "theft", but a silent "reference". In accordance with the provisions of the Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage, as long as two countries possess the same intangible cultural heritage, they can apply together without exclusivity. South Korea, on the other hand, has applied this rule to the fullest, carefully absorbing the best of China to enhance its own cultural influence.
The Korean Peninsula has been a vassal state of the Central Plains since the Tang Dynasty and has been deeply influenced by the Central Plains civilization. The Qing dynasty's dominance on the Korean Peninsula was also declining.
In the 80s of the 19th century, with the frequent international exchanges, Korea, a vassal country subordinate to the Qing Dynasty, never established a flag style. At first, North Korean Ambassador Ma Jianzhong proposed the use of the Yellow Dragon Flag to North Korea, but it was vetoed.
Subsequently, Ma Jianzhong painted a Bagua Taiji flag for it, but because North Korea was unwilling to establish diplomatic relations with China, it did not adopt all of them. At the suggestion of a British, North Korea turned South Korea's gossip into four hexagrams, and removed the "yin and yang eyes" from the Taiji diagram, which is the prototype of the current South Korean flag.
At the beginning of the establishment of South Korea, the original left, right, and right sides of the pattern were all replaced with the upper and lower sides, which is the current flag. Because South Korea lacks some talented people, they don't realize that the graphic on the flag is actually a dead letter!
There are only two kinds of Korean flags, one is heaven and earth, and the other is Kan Sigua, each of which is different from ordinary gossip, and moreover, the yin and yang fish have no eyes, so this is a kind of "death" hexagram.
The character "Tian" on the hexagram illustrates the change of regime, which is also in line with the current influence of other countries in South Korea; In the hexagram, yin and yang are opposed, which is consistent with the situation of the peninsula falling apart; In the hexagram, there are only three attributes of heaven, earth, water, and fire, among which the wind, thunder, mountains, and rivers are missing, and there is a lack of balance, which is also the contradiction between the situation in the south and the south on the southern peninsula.
Perhaps South Koreans don't think this statement is scientific enough, and they don't take the meaning of "easy to read" on the flag to heart. But why would they make flags in the form of Tai Chi Bagua? It may be just a superficial culture, but in reality it is desolate.
Since South Korea became a world economic power, it has been committed to improving its cultural flexibility. Over the past few years, they have been making appearances around the world, applying for various cultural events, and more recently, they have targeted fireworks in China as their own folk culture.
This is nothing new, South Korea is like this, taking Chinese things as its own, and then using a strange method to treat South Korea as one of the most influential countries in the world, such a move makes people feel very uncomfortable.
South Korea has been copying Chinese culture, which is also beneficial for us to promote the preservation of our own traditional culture. Many things that were originally native to China have been exploited by people abroad due to our negligence.
Affected by the impact of modern history, the Chinese have always held a "distrust" mentality towards their own nation, did not have enough confidence in their own national culture, and regarded "Western civilization" as "the best in the world", which has caused many traditional civilizations originating from China to be forgotten by people.
Others have even adopted a double-standard attitude, treating believers in Western countries as a symbol of piety, and Chinese burning incense for good luck are seen as feudal relics. A person must have his own judgment ability and not despise the traditional culture of his own nation.
In recent years, China's economy has continued to develop, the country's strength has been increasing, and people have gradually realized the inheritance and development of national culture. We must take this seriously, so that we can better inherit and preserve this excellent national tradition. If we don't cherish ourselves, how can we inherit and preserve?
There are many ways to boost the nation's cultural self-confidence, but South Korea has taken the boldest approach. Such a move can only make them look like a joke, a joke.
Inheritance and preservation are the common work of every Chinese. Instead of blindly blaming South Korea, it is better to take it seriously and carry forward its traditional culture. Let what our ancestors left us come back to life!
