Borrowing from Chinese imagination, Korean historical dramas are essentially plagiarizing Chinese elements. In South Korea, Chinese TV shows are not broadcasted, yet they plagiarize various elements from our traditional costume dramas, claiming them as their own, and portray Chinese people in a negative light with queue dramas. In reality, the revealing attire and white clothing are their national costumes. The Koreans in ancient times lacked even dyeing technology, with 97% wearing crudely made coarse clothing, while only 3% of the nobility could wear garments made from imported Chinese fabrics. Only a few nobles in ancient times received clothes as gifts from Chinese emperors. Now, they shamelessly claim the costumes in our traditional dramas as their own and attempt to beautify their impoverished and backward history. The beautiful hanboks we see today were actually redesigned by Japanese and Westerners after Japanese colonization, with modern elements added in recent times. As the saying goes, one's appearance reflects their inner self, and so does their fate. The heart is like a pearl that illuminates the world; a mere destiny cannot obstruct the power of the heart. Therefore, a person with a good heart need not fear even if born under an unfavorable star.…
