On Feb 11, Kim So Hyun posted a picture of her in hanbok for her drama River Where the Moon Rises on her Instagram and left a short greetings, ŌĆ£Everyone, have a safe and warm Lunar New Year holiday. Happy New Year.ŌĆØ But soon, Chinese netizens flocked together to her post and left absurd comments one after another: ŌĆ£Thank you for promoting Chinese traditional culture.ŌĆØ ŌĆ£Hanfu is the best!ŌĆØ ŌĆ£Thank you for sharing the beauty of Chinese Hanfu. I didnŌĆÖt know Koreans are so addicted to Chinese culture, even wear Chinese clothes and celebrate Chinese new year. This really surprised meŌĆØ and ŌĆ£I am sorry that your way of wearing Hanfu is wrong. Traditional Hanfu is a right gusset, that is, the collar is a right-facing Y-shape. Your way of wearing it is considered a barbarian.ŌĆØ They even pressed the like button in each otherŌĆÖs comments, further continuing their bewildering actions. Recently, Chinese netizens started to distort history, claiming that hanbok is actually ŌĆ£hanfuŌĆØ worn during the Ming Dynasty and insisting that ŌĆ£Pao Chai,ŌĆØ a Chinese-style pickled vegetables, is kimchi.
