Has the application for Japanese traditional culture been successful?

National intangible cultural heritage is not so easy to apply for. China is an ancient civilization with a long history of more than 5,000 years, so China has more than 1,000 national intangible cultural heritages. Of course, China still has many things or cultural customs to apply for. This is the cultural heritage of a big country.

China was a world power in ancient times, and Chinese culture had a far-reaching influence, especially in the Tang Dynasty, the peak of feudal society's opening to the outside world. People from many countries came to China not far from Wan Li just to get a glimpse of this mysterious eastern power. On the streets of the Tang Dynasty, many foreigners were playing.

Because of the advanced nature of culture, it has also affected many neighboring countries. The surrounding small countries are basically vassals of the powerful China, and are also influenced by China culture, especially Japanese, Korean and Vietnamese countries, whose cultures and customs are all influenced by China culture.

I believe everyone has heard of Korea's application for the Dragon Boat Festival before. South Korea itself has little cultural heritage, but they are anxious when they see that everyone has something to apply for. They can use all their connections and finally successfully apply for the Dragon Boat Festival.

Because of the successful application for the World Heritage, Koreans expanded and began to apply for all kinds of things that did not belong to them. Finally, they even want to apply for Chinese characters. United Nations staff can't stand it anymore, and many netizens in Japan ridicule it. South Korea was humiliated this time.

However, South Korea is not the only country that wants to apply for the World Heritage for China. In contrast, Japan has thousands of years of cultural heritage, which is slightly better, but many cultural customs in Japan are appropriately copied from China.

For this reason, Japan also wanted to apply for the World Heritage, so they went with their traditional costumes and kimonos and were told that they could not. In the impression of many people, kimono is a traditional Japanese costume, which makes sense. Why not? This matter also has a lot to do with our country.

In fact, Japanese kimono is very similar to China's Hanfu and Tang Fu's, and their clothes have changed according to this. Therefore, Japanese kimono can't successfully apply for heritage, and Japanese people are very reluctant to apply for heritage with clogs. Unfortunately, it also proves that clogs first appeared in China, but later they were not worn by China people, so they were studied by the Japanese.

The Japanese are also very helpless about this, but they have to admit that there are indeed many places worth learning in our country. Even the Dragon Boat Festival, a South Korean World Heritage application, actually belongs to China in everyone's mind. It doesn't matter who applied for the World Heritage, what matters is who it belongs to.
