Koreans Upset with China Using Hanbok During Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony
China does have a point that in northeastern China there is a large Korean minority group present that they were trying to represent during the opening ceremony:
South Korea plans to continue global efforts to publicize hanbok, the traditional Korean attire, as its signature culture, a government official said Sunday, as people here are in an uproar over China’s use of hanbok during the winter Olympics opening ceremony.
Korea Times
One woman clad in hanbok appeared among those representing 56 ethnic groups across China during the event held in Beijing last Friday.
You can read more at the link, but clearly the CCP was trying to stick it to the West and their diplomatic boycott of the Olympics over human rights abuses of the Uighurs. This ceremony was intended to make it look like all the ethnic groups in China are happy and content and the West is wrong about repression of minority groups. I doubt this had anything to do with stealing Korean culture.

This is what happens when you order your X-Men off of Wish.
Seems like he was hearing the bagpipes when Xi said “froggy”…

Just goes to show that Emperor Xi wants the peninsula back in the Chinese empire.
This has everything to do with stealing Korean culture and laying claim to the peninsula. GI is now shilling for commie china. The whole point is to claim all these territories as actually chinese, all areas represented here have historic claims to their own land but China seized the land and claims it as historically chinese. Better wake up GI.
As Flyingsword has commented @GIKorea has also missed the point here.
The Chinese have been for years claiming that the hanbok and kimchi is Chinese and not Korean.
So for them to showcase the hanbok here and use it to publicize their position does not exactly say that they aren’t stealing Korean culture.
And since the Internet is American culture, they’re appropriating that, too.
@TOK, I have long written how China has been trying to set conditions to claim Korean culture in case North Korea collapses and they had to occupy the place. However, in this case you have people wearing outfits from all the different ethnic groups in China and not just a hanbok. The CCP is clearly trying to message to the world that all these ethnic groups are happy in China.
Its a shame that GI Korea had to actually explain that to you snowflakes
China is like a Third World country in many way… none of them good:
