How many Chinese festivals has South Korea seized? As a great country, does China need to care about these little brothers who have always been China's helpers? If you preemptively register the workers’ holiday, does it really belong to it? After the historical development of modern times, South Korea has been ravaged and oppressed by Japan, forming a complex, twisted, almost perverted nationalism and deformed self-awareness. Is it necessary to be as knowledgeable as such a nation? The thousands-year-old tradition of the Chinese nation is not to just register and hand over the pot to others. Really, it is not like that. National culture is not an official document, justice lies in the hearts of the people, not to mention culture is the expression of ideology and values.
