Cheongsam is ugly. There are so many costumes in the history of China. The cheongsam of the Tang Dynasty, the Song Dynasty and the Han Dynasty is much better than that of Manchuria.

Because the cheongsam can show the thigh, the Tang costume, including the flag costume worn by Manchu, the predecessor of the cheongsam, is either packed in a bucket or wrapped too tightly to show the figure.

From a man's point of view, this is a pleasing enjoyment. From a woman's point of view, when the Qing Dynasty was overthrown, what unreliable new ideas were pursued? I dare to show my thighs and arms. This is mind liberation.

So it was popular to wear cheongsam at that time.

As for why Japan and South Korea wear traditional clothes and we don't, it depends on the history of the three countries.

Our country has always been a dynasty change. When a dynasty dies, the dynasty that replaces it always tries to erase the remnants of the previous dynasty, including costumes. Said he was orthodox and the son of heaven. Therefore, people in the Song Dynasty don't wear Tang costumes, but have Song costumes. All this is to consolidate his rule. Therefore, only ethnic minorities really wear traditional costumes on festivals. Han people basically have no clothes of the same strain.

On the other hand, Japan only worships the emperor. They fight for real things such as Guan Bai, Zheng Taihe and conquering foreign generals, not for the position of the emperor. In several periods in ancient China, both prime ministers and generals could work. Therefore, for example, the change of political power in Japan is like a dynasty. Everyone is vying for the position of prime minister and general. No matter who wins, the dynasty is still that dynasty, so the etiquette, culture and clothing have not changed much.

The Korean dynasty was the Lee dynasty. No matter what you look at "Dae Jang Geum", "Shang Dao" and "Women in the World", they are all Li Dynasty, and they have always been Li Dynasty from the founding of the People's Republic of China to being colonized by the Japanese.

Of course, people in North Korea and Japan will dress up during festivals. Of course, they will wear traditional clothes.

China, how to wear it? In the Qing dynasty, you wore plain clothes. Not afraid of being beheaded? After the founding of the People's Republic of China, you wore a national flag suit. Aren't you afraid of being criticized as counter-revolutionary? Therefore, we China people have always worn whatever the costumes of the dynasties.
