How to treat the prevalence of costume drama now?

There are some important reasons why costume dramas are popular now.

1. China people's national consciousness has been enhanced.

In the past, we talked about ancient costumes, which were worn by people in specific occasions or industries. I don't know that ancient costumes are divided into dynasties, and clothes have various functions, which are different according to seasons and occasions. Now, whoever says costume, let's make it clear first: are you talking about costume, Chinese costume, performance costume, or Chinese elements ... with clearer definition and higher understanding. In the past, most people would think that wearing ancient costumes was a player and a "madman" (not a derogatory term, it refers to the inherent thinking in the past, please correct me if there are any mistakes), but now wearing Hanfu is a manifestation of national pride, patriotism and love for Chinese culture. To say one thing, regardless of age, many elders really accept Hanfu and encourage our generation not to feel ashamed. Acceptance is too high. In fact, parents also like Hanfu very much.

2. Cultural power is deeply rooted in people's hearts.

Behavior is influenced by consciousness. When we think that cultural soft power is very important, and understand, accept and even decide to enhance self-identity and highlight national culture through external things, clothing is a good symbol. When the younger generation is educated in the process of national strategy and national development, they will naturally have a familiar and fresh sensory experience of things that may have been neglected in the past but still have a strong national color at present.

3. Cultural symbols began to appear.

As 1 and 2 said, clothing can also be a symbol and a sign. It's like seeing Hanfu as China's and Kimono as Japanese. This is actually a very good thing.

4. Personality and sense of belonging.

Needless to say, I believe everything is relative, and I don't think there is any conflict between the pursuit of novelty and the pursuit of group belonging. If you love Hanfu, you can also play with heavy machinery. If you like dancing, you can also learn math. After Cosplay, you can take off your makeup and still be an ordinary office worker ... it's normal. Human nature is complex, and people's social behavior does not affect the individual's desire to pursue uniqueness at all.

5. Aesthetic changes.

It is human nature to love beauty! It just looks good! It is a trend and a popular phenomenon to look good and like more. I also buy Hanfu myself, and I like to wear Hanfu when I go out to take photos, so I should wear it as beautiful clothes normally ~ In the world where face value is dominant, after so many years, the aesthetics of our ancestors have been accepted by the younger generation, which is really amazing ~ Who can create a clothing style that people who sell 30 18 sigh? That's amazing.
