KOREA, JAPAN, VIETNAM AND CHINA ARE ALL A PART OF THE SINOSPHERE. The SINOSPHERE consists of countries that historically were heavily influenced by Chinese culture, norms and traditions. That is why there are so many similarities people!!!
true although it was kinda partially influenced bu chinese culture like some ornaments did look similar but the prob why are they getting so offended ?
Similar doesn't mean completely the same,have you search what elements they use in the mv,?It's totally chinese staff,Korea keep use the influence of kpop,it is culture appropriation😅
they always be hating on ive, especially wonyoung, and this was a stupid reason to hate on her like did SHE personally draw them? I don't think so, did SHE approve them? I don't think so, like I get the anger, but the netz should be more reasonable and go shittalk starship and not the girls
the artist of the mv studied art in china. she took ideas from the culture, used it in the mv and now clueless people are calling it “Korean”. Chinese people would have appreciated it if starship acknowledged the fact that it was inspired by china, but everyone is painting it as korean. Hate against Chinese people is real because when idols steal from black culture by doing braids everyone is hating but when idols steal from Chinese culture is “oh it’s rich coming from them”. Many Chinese things nowadays are getting rebranded as korean like tanghulu, malatang, nails, makeup, shops/brands etc. and even if they aren’t specified as “Korean”, the media has advertised and marketed these things as Korean (or japanese) and then everyone from the west believes it’s Korean because Korean culture is better than China in their eyes. IVE is not an isolated issue when it comes to Sinophobia, but is definitely fuelling the fire.

Those comments are from a small number of people who are already hating on IVE and Korean anyway, majority of mainlanders don't even pay attention to the issue and the sales for MiuMiu is going strong. Those people from 'original' culture needs to learn about cultural assimilation and what happened when you made other group of people believe your belief.

THISSSSSSSS. Couldn't have said it better. I was happy when i discovered kpop, i saw someone that looked similar to me on big stages, etc. Now it's kinda something i lowkey dislike. I like the music, but i end up disliking it a bit because of everything being labelled korean. A chinese trend/famous snack, now it's korean to all the kpop stans. You try to say it's chinese, but then ppl just start saying ur a ccp bot. It's insane how some people think. I'm sick of it honestly. There's something wrong when every thing is just labelled korean or japanese.
We made it popular. Korea never claimed in it was Korean. You guys are actually shit at promoting your own culture. When the Chinese promote it, people hate it. That’s your fault not koreas. Ramen is Chinese food, but who made it popular? The Japanese did. It’s because Chinese quality is low grade and lack luster. You can only blame yourselves for your own failure. But the Chinese are communists and the cultural revolution destroyed it, blame yourselves.
@@bearblob7036 In the Philippines, we're having hard time here because of Chinese coast guards. They're basically stealing our ocean. So, for me, it is ironic.
@@lovesleah._.3 I understand the frustrations regarding the situation in the South China Sea. However, it’s important to consider that China has historical claims to these waters, which are based on centuries of documented presence and use. China believes it is protecting its rightful territories and securing vital resources for its large population. Moreover, China has repeatedly expressed a desire for bilateral negotiations to resolve these disputes peacefully and cooperatively, aiming to find solutions that respect the interests of all involved parties.
@@bearblob7036cause china is „famous“ for faking and producing products that are knock offs from something else, mostly wealthy western brands, now unlike many think it is also illegal to do that there(as long as in China the trademark is also protected there.) But the controls and the measures that are then taken are very vague, which is why so many fake things are produced in China. So it's ironic when the Chinese say they don't like thieves. Unfortunately, the country is known abroad for "stealing" things, which of course isn’t the fault of every individual Chinese citizen, but we can apply that to every stereotype of a country.
@@bearblob7036 wdym peacefully, they sprayed water on Philippine boats to chase them away and started putting barrier's around so that fishermen wouldn't be able to fish and make a living China's resources are diminishing so they started claiming land expecting the country to just Agree with it.

It is chinese culture, but this time it has nothing to do with the actual members, rather its the designs team fault for not being able to bring out actual korean culture for the MV. Shame on starship, and they're not doing anything in this situation either.
@@loelds4817 Not the hanbok, there were other various Chinese culture in the mv. Watch her other video and you'll see what im talking about. Besides, the Hanbok IS an inspiration from the Chinese Hanfu, if you didn't know they colonised them way back during the Han dynasty(not exactly sure when). There you have it.
@@Eunseokswife why would chinese netizens be irritated then? People don't have a problem with chinese culture being used in the music video. for example, svt's super have clearly stated that they took inspo from jurney to the west, but ive advertised chinese culture as korean, which is blatant theft
It's not fair that they are targeting Wonyoung instead of the creative director of the concept... who had travelled to China and gathered inspo from it... the clouds are definitely chinese, not korean. Cultural appreciation is fine, but claiming obvious cultural items and art that is not korean to be korean is NOT. I wish people would just get the point first, instead of hurling racist comments towards chinese people for being angry that their own culture is being claimed as korean. Imagine if korean people claimed the kimono to be theirs... The Japanese would not be happy about that at all... But because foreigners have a better like for anything Japanese, I doubt they would receive the same ignorant comments telling them that they should go and 'educate' themselves.
Some Chinese netizens are even saying that the hanbok and kimono are “Chinese dresses” because silk came from china. Bruh, are they nuts? Then chinese people shouldn’t wear cotton or denim and call it “chinese fashion”.

You learnt the word hanbok and suddenly became so knowledgable about the differences between Korean and Chinese culture. Kpop groups have been doing Korean inspired concepts for a while and there was never an issue because the actual Koreans and Chinese can distinguish them. The fact here is that Starship DID use really representative Chinese elements and called it a day. Stop thinking you know it all about a 5000 year civilization
I’m Chinese and I know about this but we love Wonyoung and they are still young we want them to grow up faster and get a better life we need to take care of them I never gonna stop liking Wonyoung
wonyoung definately does not deserve the hate she is receiving but i really wish people would stop labelling chinese fans as "sensitive" or "overreacting" in this situation because their culture was literally appropriated. of course its true that Korean culture shares a number of similarities with Chinese culture, but in this situation ive used numerous elements of Chinese culture and labelled them all as Korean (baoshan fan, opium pipe, old beijing shoes, Chinese knot, Chinese clouds, etc). i know damn well that if it was any other culture you guys would be fucking pissed but because the culture being appropriated is Chinese, everyone turns a blind eye...
Ok China they don’t mind that they share BUT when Korea start claiming that it is theirs, Korea has crossed the freaking line. You see Japan they also share a history but Japan they sorta reshape it(?) until you would definitely see the difference. But Korea they don’t they just use it as their own, which is the part that makes China fans mad.
@@whattareyoudoing Coz it is ours lol. What do you expect? It’s Korean, so it’s Korean. Are all gothic style buildings Spanish? No. Because Europe shared a similar culture. Same here. It’s oriental, East Asian theme that we commonly share between Korea Japan and China.
@@Whatchalookinattt my ass bro, for someone who openly stole others art you have alot of shit to say. Even IF we commonly share a history, doesn't mean that you have the right to take smt that belonged to chinese art as your own . you can use it BUT YOU SHOULD NEVER FUGDING CLAIM IT AS YOUR OWN. Tanghulu suddenly became a KOREAN food when it's chinese. You korean did't even deny it was korean and continue saying it was korean. 🐶💩

@@DittoItzy-mz6lsit means they were so brave telling they hate thieves as if they didnt steal evrything. Even other country's island which are not their property, they claimed it. Such a big bunch of thieves ,😂😂
as far as i know south korea and china share a lot of cultural aspects including food and art so idk why chinese people are so angry,, china has been a huge influence and impact for many east asian countries bc of trade and what not so idk why both koreans and chinese people get so pressed about the similarities between their cultures like babes your ancestors wanted that it’s not a big deal
You’re right. Like Ancient Rome to other European countries, ancient China as the cultural center of East Asian in the history has dramatically influenced many neighboring countries and regions over centuries, and consequently they share many cultural similarities nowadays, like Japan, and they all live in peace on that part. But why there’s always some intense controversy in terms of cultural heritage towards South Korean, that’s something really interesting to think about.
@@tian3127 why china is internationally renowned for “made in china” is also something to think about. Taiwan never has these issues with Korea. are taiwanese not chinese? 😄
Theyre such lowlifes. They should go email whoever made the mv or whatever they are mad at. What is Wonyoung or Miu Miu going to do. And Boo hoo Miu Miu a multimillion company is not crying over some troll comments😂
As if Chinese companies like CASETiFY, TEMU, SHEIN don't steal designs from small business all around the world and As if China didn't colonise Korea and enforce all their customs
Jessussssss leave wonyoung for once my god!!! They were waiting for something like this to happen so can they throw it on this girl!!! Its soo sad we live in such a cruel world! 😪
The worst thing that can happen to miu miu is to lose Chinese market If they lose the Chinese market they are significantly done for, because foreign brands depended heavily on the Chinese market as they are the largest consumer of luxury products. And the funny thing about Chinese netizens is that once they decide not to buy from you there is no going back even after an apology. Once cancelled, always canceled
In my opinion, they do have a right to be angry, and it acc does show quite a bit of racism from people when they claim that’s it’s not a big issue. The main reason you think this, if because they are both East Asian countries, and to those people, there is that much of a difference between e.g china, Korea and Japan. Like if this was done with black culture y’all would be raving. Some of these cnetz are overreacting tho, I don’t think it was ever claimed to be Korean culture, and it’s starships’s fault not Ive. Basically, people on both sides of this argument are not well informed enough, and are therefore reaching to the extremes
@@w0esk yeah, but I personally think the backlash shouldn’t have to be directed towards them cos they haven’t consciously done anything wrong. Like they r doing their job. And whilst the c-netz do have a right to be angry, they r getting angry at the wrong people. They are targeting the followers not the leaders
i do think chinese ppl have the right to be upset over it, but not angry. china colonized korea for many years, so obviously they're gonna have many similarities, but being angry over it is just stupid. you can't colonize a country and then be upset when parts of your history get mixed with their history. also i don't think IVE or the company itself ever claimed to represent korean culture, it was mostly their fans who started spreading that idea around
@@shoshoshuffle oh that’s great to know abt the company not claiming it to be Korean! I’m sorry I was misinformed about that! I also totally get where you’re coming from, but the artistic director of the mv studied art in china, and used Chinese culture as a base for the mv(please do correct me if I’m wrong), so I guess they still have a right to be angry.
@@AmberMizuki-y9h idk abt the art director so i can't speak on that, but i still think anger to that extent is unnecessary. im talking from personal experience as i come from a country that was also colonized for centuries and now the colonizers want to claim everything (art, foods, myths etc) as theirs. i don't think you can bring things into a civilization and then get mad when those things become part of their culture. i can understand what you point is tho
Idk a thing about Chinese/South Korean cultural crossover, but I do know that China has plenty of options over Miu Miu, like Temu and Aliexpress, where "original" Chinese designs abound 😅
Just trying to explain to those who don’t understand why “stealing culture” is a thing. Koreans claim many cultural heritages as their own even if it is certainly not. Examples include but not limited to: claiming Confucius as Korean, claiming they invent dragon boat festival, cropping and using images of Hanfu as propaganda for Hanbok (which comes from hanfu) and the “beautiful korean culture”and many other cultures that originate from China as originating from Korea and terming the items as “traditional korean”. And Chinese people since they pretty much have their own social media apps so they won’t see what koreans are doing on western social media and applying to UNESCO. YES. East Asia have similar or partly-shared culture, but this is mostly based on China which has been spreading culture to these other regions for thousands of years and places like Korea learned and adopted the culture rather than inventing them themselves. If you still don’t understand, just think of UK or France or any other country of western civilization claiming they own and invent the ancient roman art and architecture and saying Aristotle is British or French, or American people saying they invent pizza. Hope yah know what i meant now😅
Considering China takes so much influence from south korean pop culture and others today, it’s rather hypocritical they are criticizing anyone about copying.
I think what people are mad about it’s not them using the concept, but it’s the fact that it is stated as Korean traditional style, when most of it is influenced by ancient china. This will confuse people who are not really familiar with Asian culture and make them think that these are truly solely Korean style. tbh although I’m Chinese myself but I am not that familiar with the difference, but I’m just summarizing what I’ve seen online. Judging by the comments around this topic, although both side have irrational people, I do tend to see a lot of Korean netizens who refuses to give any credit to china. We all understand that similarity lies within the different cultures but this feels like plagiarism in a way since china is not addressed and credited at all for the elements.
Nahh nah, Chinese don't want "thieves" but is okay in stealing another country's island. 😂😂😂 Also Wonyoung is still slaying as usual, this is just another Tuesday for her 😂
It's funny how ONLY brands that work with Wonyoung that got boycotted, not even Yujin.. So atp they just find any excuses to hating this girl lol, give her a breakkk
So, concerning the cultural stealing in the M/V, China and Korea have always seemed to have this disagreement about whether something is inherently from one culture or the other. For example: historical myths, medicine, and clothing are often debated between the countries. China says Korea stole from their culture and saying that it's "actually Chinese," and then Korea will state that it's a tradition in Korea as a rebuttal. This is just something I've noticed, regardless of IVE's position as it's happened prior to IVE as well. It's not the citizen's fault (or the group in those case) of what it's taught to know or do. It's the teacher/government's responsibility to inform the citizen. So, if Starship was trying to misappropriate Chinese culture, then Starship is at fault and IVE is innocent unless they were knowingly doing this. However, anthropological speaking, historical recollections of myths and stories are often similar in different parts of the world. Like how a lot of Shonen anime reference Journey to the West (a Chinese epic). Or how imperialism, feudalism, and colonization will ultimately reshape how one tells their own history. So, there may be a little truth here, but we cannot say for certain.

we can't APPRECIATE other cultures now? heck, if other ethnicity used my culture as inspiration, i would be FLATTERED. why is everything an issue nowadays? it just seems so insecure of people.
Yes we can but it has to be done tastefully, but in this situation although, ur right. Ive appreciated Chinese culture at its finest. Luckily no over sexualization was present so I don’t understand the uproar.
ABOUT THE DESIGNS IN HEYA, I think they were pretty Chinese (although the two countries share a lot of culture), but I think the problem lies where Starship people are like, “acktuallie, it’s korean”. Maybe if they just acknowledged that they ARE ACTUALLY CHINESE, then, Wonyoung wouldn’t have to be called names like this and the members would have caught a break 😀

Like, are we ok? Chinese culture IS Korean culture. Chinese culture IS East Asian culture. Chinese culture is and will always be intermingled with any other East Asian culture. Like, did we forget how much area several Chinese and Mongolian dynasties ruled? Did we forget for how long and how many times what we know as Korea today was under Chinese rule? Buddhism exists in Korea because of China. They used Chinese writing until the 1400s when Hangul was invented. Sounds like education is lacking in a lot of places. This is so stupid.
@seveteensBIGGESTfanIt’s true but semantics and little details matter a lot to some individuals of each of those countries. Namely the nationalistic ones. My boyfriend is Korean and he will get so mad if anyone ever names similarities between Chinese and Korean culture (not even saying which is better but even just anyone who compares). This is because he is very nationalistic Korean and he believes Korea to be superior to most East Asian countries in general for a lot of things. I’m Chinese btw 😂
i'm chinese and have done a lot of research on chinese, korean, japanese, etc. culture recently and in the past and there is definitely some similarities between these major east asian countries, but they're still individual countries. understandably, since many east asian countries were ruled by different dynasties of mongolia and china, they'll have similarities in things such as religion, similar regional holidays, traditions, and things like that which have been shared by these countries for centuries. however, that's not to say that they're exactly the same or that one culture is the same as another culture. there are cultural differences, including cuisine, clothing, language (including dialects, as each region within even a single country may have a different one), etc. putting them together and saying one is exactly like the other isn't true, as it seems you're doing here. that could be considered racism depending on who you ask, with a stereotype similar to "all look same" where people from the same or different countries are compared far too closely to one another that their differences are lost.
@@kpopiconicc well, it seems that all that research did not help you read and/or comprehend anything. I didn’t say even once they were the same. I said “Chinese culture is and will always be intermingled with East Asian culture”, if you don’t know what that means, then I suggest doing some reading. It’s the same with the US and Latin America. European culture IS the Americas culture. It’s literally the basis of the current culture in the Americas. Just like indigenous culture IS American culture. And African culture IS American culture. All of these are the basis for cultures in the Americas. Same with Chinese culture in East Asia and even SEA.
@@nghiango1655 seems you also lack comprehension skills you talked about apologizing first and those plagues happened way before COVID so y’all have to apologize first either way , I don’t have to be Chinese to have common sense which is something that’s in decline these days so sad for you

Comments about cultural appropriation are often hypocritical. Like, you want a certain culture to be promoted and recognized but, once it is enjoyed and appreciated by people from other cultures to the point where they want to make it a part of their lives, you call them thieves. Keep your Chinese culture to yourself and don’t listen di K-Pop, then!

@@mr.tawakalYujin explicitly stated that the comeback was based off Korean culture and style, with no mentions of Chinese culture. This sentence isn’t wrong as there are Korean elements as well, but making it all about Korean culture and speaking nothing about Chinese culture when several Chinese elements were used in the MV, members’ outfits and comeback stage set is not alright. If Starship or the members had said one sentence about the MV being inspired by Chinese culture, Chinese people would have praised IVE a lot, but they did not.
Why do people waste their time with this sort of stuff?? Even if there are aspects from Chinese culture, deal with it and move on!! People are so sensitive about stuff like this
Finding many comments on one hand stressing China “colonized” Korean in history and on the other hand denying the cultural influence of ancient China on Korean is really hilarious. Let me ask how often do you ever find silk fans (in all shapes) in Korean historical dramas? Almost never. And suddenly it showed up in a modern Kpop MV and became traditionally Korean? So funny.
Chinese dramas often portray students wearing the Korean school uniform “gyobok” and even the hanbok. Since when did Chinese students wear name tags, korean crop cut blouse and non pleated chima to school? Everyone knows Chinese students wear trainers in real life. Do you actually consider dramas as culturally and historically accurate? Please educate yourself first. You are looking like another racist troll.
