Both the popularization of knowledge by various academic professionals and the vigorous promotion by private forces have brought the field to life.

Yan Wang's Paintings Yan Wang wf He is a researcher of ancient Chinese costumes, also an illustrated book writer, has participated in the restoration of historical figures for many times, and was the dress director of the drama "Serenade of Peaceful Joy (清平乐)".

[Interview] How to Become a Hanfu Model
Hanfu models are arguably the luckiest of all, as they are always the first to try on the latest hanfu and take beautiful photos. But becoming a good hanfu model also takes a lot of hard work. Modern Hanfu found four hanfu models and let's hear their stories. No.1 A Shang (阿尚) I am a college student studying drama performance, and I chose to join the hanfu modeling industry in my freshman year because I wanted to gain more shooting experience to better train myself and to reduce some economic pressure for my family, and I had participated in some aspects of modeling work. When I first joined the hanfu modeling industry, I thought hanfu modeling was the same as print modeling, but then I realized that I had to have my own "Yun Wei (韵味, charm)" to make it work. And the outside world's opinion about hanfu is really too single, each hanfu model as a "show" on stage for a minute or even a dozen seconds, may have to do a full month or two months of preparation off stage. From the understanding of the costume, to the selection of the overall style, to the design of… -

How to Choose Your First Hanfu Dress
I often hear people say, "I don't know how to choose the first Hanfu dress?" For the first contact with Hanfu friends, such a problem is certainly not new, because of the lack of knowledge of Hanfu, coupled with the identity of students, office workers, etc., the probability of wearing Hanfu every day is not very high. It is mainly used for taking photos, participating in activities, and so on, so when choosing the first suit of Hanfu, everyone will be particularly entangled. Today, I would like to recommend the first Hanfu dress for entry-level. Song style long / short shirt + Moxiong (bra) + pleated skirt Features: suitable for the first time contact with Hanfu friends, daily, fresh, and elegant style.

Many friends may worry that Hanfu is not suitable for daily wear, but in fact, Hanfu can also be daily and beautiful. Song long / short shirt + Moxiong (bra)… -
Creation of the Gods 1 – Themes and Visual Splendor of The Latest Chinese Mythological Movie
The hottest film of the summer season is undoubtedly the fantasy epic "Creation of The Gods 1: Kingdom of Storms", which director Wuer Shan has meticulously crafted over a decade. Before watching this film, it may be necessary for you to acquaint with some background knowledge. The theme of "patricide" Based on existing materials, news reports, and premiere reviews, it can be observed that "Creation of The Gods 1: Kingdom of Storms" embodies the classic theme of patricide. In the movie, all four princes from different states who have no inheritance rights are sent to Zhao Ge (capital of the Shang dynasty) as Zhi Zi (质子, refers to the hostages sent to the enemy or other countries in ancient times, mostly princes or sons, and other people of noble birth. For example, Yan Bingyun in Joy of Life 1 played the role of a Zhi Zi), and raised by King Zhou of Shang as his own sons. Faced with two forms of paternal authority, King Zhou's and their biological fathers', the Zhi Zi must make a choice between them.

The Traditional Chinese Study Room: A Haven for Literati
The ancient Chinese revered the saying "Read ten thousand books, travel ten thousand miles" as the supreme path to pursuing knowledge. While traveling ten thousand miles requires venturing out into the vast lands, where should one go to read ten thousand books? Some may argue that in the past, there were examples like Kuang Heng of the Han Dynasty who read by the light coming through a hole in the wall, or Che Yin of the Jin Dynasty who read by the light of fireflies in a sack. As long as there is a desire to read, does it really matter where one reads? Is a specific location truly necessary? Ancient literati believed that they were a group with aspirations, where each day included moments of quiet contemplation, accompanied by tea, poetry recitation, writing poems, and ultimately, writing in the Shu Zhai (书斋, study room). The study room was a specific space for literati to read and write, akin to a modern-day studio. However, the study was not merely a functional physical space; it encompassed rich spiritual and cultural symbolism, existing as a unique entity in the minds of literati. From site selection, design, construction, and decoration, to naming, couplet…
