Mainland actress Zhang Jianing recently wore Korean national costumes to promote Yanbian Prefecture, Jilin, but she didn't expect it to break the defense of the Korean Internet, and there are many comments on the Korean Internet that reverse black and white, such as the following.

After reading these comments, I was angry and wanted to laugh, and their brain circuits were really clear, why do Koreans have such a wrong perception? After thinking about it, I realized that there is only one ethnic group in Korea, so they can't empathize with us.
Specifically, South Korea is a single-ethnic country, and they only have Koreans in their homeland, unlike our 56 ethnic groups, which is a multi-ethnic country. Therefore, South Koreans mistakenly believe that the culture and costumes of the Korean nationality are theirs, and they do not know that the Korean nationality is only one of the 56 ethnic groups on the mainland, and the Korean costume is only one of the mainland costumes.
South Koreans don't realize how vast and profound a country has 56 ethnic groups, and they can only grasp what a single nation has, and if they want anything else, they can only imitate and copy. Based on this situation, Koreans themselves are used to copying others, so when they see someone else's family having the same as them, they will think that others are also copying.
This kind of thinking is still deeply ingrained in South Korea, and in the final analysis, it is because South Korea is too small, and some people use a sentence to ridicule South Korea's smallness, saying that South Korea's weather forecast says that there will be rain in the whole country.

In fact, South Korea is indeed very small, but they claim to be the Republic of Korea, but the area is only 100,000 square kilometers, accounting for 45% of the Korean Peninsula, so large South Korea is also divided into 1 special city, 2 special municipalities (provinces), 8 provinces, 6 metropolitan cities, a total of 17, isn't this just like the number of prefecture-level cities in our province?
South Korea is so small, there are not many things that can be held in your hands, and these people on the Korean Internet know very little. For example, they definitely don't know why Zhang Jianing is wearing Korean costumes, because Zhang Jianing is from Jilin, she was born in Liaoyuan City, Jilin Province, and it is normal for her to go to her hometown to promote tourism as a Jilin person.

Map of Yanbian Prefecture
Yanbian Prefecture, which Zhang Jianing visited this time, covers an area of 43,000 square kilometers, equivalent to 43 percent of South Korea, and has a population of 1.9 million people living in Yanbian, including Han, Korean, Manchu, Hui, and other ethnic minorities.
In Yanji City, the capital of Yanbian Prefecture, the streets are full of Korean characters and a variety of delicious Korean snacks. Come here to feel the customs and culture of the Korean people, and in the future, everyone will go to South Korea less and travel more to Yanbian Prefecture, and the scenery here will be more beautiful.
