The giant panda, as one of China's "national treasures", has always been extremely popular around the world. The South Korean people's request for the government to renew the lease of the Chinese giant panda "Fu Bao" not only reflects the influence of the giant panda in the world, but also reflects the close interaction between China and South Korea in cultural exchanges.
According to South Korean media reports, on the 8th of this month, a proposal appeared on the website of the citizens' platform operated by the Seoul Metropolitan Government, titled "Please consider allowing citizens to see 'Fubao' who has returned to China again in Seoul Grand Park." The proposal states that in order to satisfy Seoul citizens and Chinese tourists who are eager to see "Fubo" (again), please pay rent to China to rent "Fubo". The move is intended to allow Chinese tourists visiting South Korea to see "Fu Bao", a symbol of friendship between China and South Korea, at Seoul Grand Park.

Born on July 20, 2020, "Fu Bao" is the first baby of giant pandas "Aibao" and "Lebao" in South Korea, and is loved by the Korean people. It has not only been endowed with nicknames such as "Fu Princess" and "Fu Dun Dun", but also has become a witness to the friendly relations between China and South Korea. According to the relevant agreement signed between China and South Korea, "Fu Bao" must return to China before reaching the age of 4. On April 3 this year, about 6,000 tourists braved the rain to rush to Everland in Yongin, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea, to bid farewell to the "Fu Bao" who was about to return to China, and many Korean fans shed tears of reluctance. Under the full escort of Korean breeders, "Fu Bao" departed for China and was sent to the Wolong Shenshuping Base of the China Giant Panda Conservation and Research Center in Sichuan Province.
Behind this phenomenon, it is not difficult to find that the giant panda, as a cultural symbol, has become an important bridge to promote international exchanges and enhance people's friendship as a cultural symbol. With its unique charm, the giant panda has not only been valued in China, but has also become a symbol of Chinese culture on a global scale, promoting the interaction and exchange of Chinese and foreign cultures.
The South Korean people's request to renew the lease of "Fubao" highlights the deep feelings between China and South Korea in cultural exchanges. This is not only a love for the giant panda, but also a recognition and support for the friendly relations between China and South Korea. Through the story of "Fu Bao", we see how a country's cultural soft power affects the world and how it shows its unique charm on the international stage.
The story of the giant panda "Fu Bao" is not only a touching anecdote, but also a microcosm of cultural exchanges between China and South Korea, demonstrating the unique role of giant pandas in promoting international friendship and cultural exchanges. Through events like these, we can deeply understand the power of culture and its important role in connecting different countries and peoples.
