What nationality is the girl chasing?

The girl Chase belongs to the Kazakh nation.

Gu Zhuisak, known as "Kizi Courval", is a favorite sports game of Kazakh youth and a unique way for young men and women to express their love. It is often held on festive occasions.

There are many beautiful legends about "chasing girls", including a story: once upon a time, a white swan became a woman, married a hunter and became the ancestor of Kazakhs. On their wedding day, they rode two white horses and flew around like white swans, chasing each other. It is said that this is the earliest origin of girls chasing.

"Chasing Girls" is usually held on the grassland where flowers are in full bloom in summer and autumn, and herders from far and near ride horses to visit. At the beginning of the activity, a pair of unmarried young men and women walked slowly to the designated place. When going, the young man can tease or woo the girl at will, and the girl can only listen silently and not get angry; On the return trip, the young man must gallop, and the girl is chasing after him with a whip. If the girl catches up with the young man, she can whip him at will, and sometimes she will drop her hat on the ground, which will cause the audience to burst into laughter.

If a girl has feelings for a boy, she will show mercy with a whip, and only see the whip dangling over the boy's head, instead of the tip of the whip falling off, or the girl deliberately draws the whip on the horse riding by the boy. The scene is hot and interesting.

The legend of chasing the origin of girls

A long time ago, the Kazak people had two tribal leaders who formed their children's in-laws.

On the day when the girl came in, one of the people who came to pick up relatives was quick-tongued, boasting that his boss's son's mount was a pony selected from many Mali. The story reached the ears of the girl's father. In order to boast about his horse and daughter's riding skills, the girl's father said, "My girl rides in the opposite direction to your marriage. If your boy catches up with my girl, he will go through the door today, or we will talk about it another day. "

The young man who came to meet the bride was eager to meet her, and he agreed to this challenging condition without being outdone. The two boys immediately turned over and got on the horse, with the girl riding in front and the boy chasing after. When he caught up with the girl and went around to the front, the girl suggested that the young man run back in front and chase after her, so chasing the girl became chasing the girl. Later, this activity became a habit and has been passed down to this day.
