College students have become the main force in the promotion of Hanfu. Should we support them?

This may be influenced by Japanese street culture. In Japan, we can see many people wearing kimonos and clogs, covering all ages, including women in their seventies and eighties and high school students in their teens. It seems normal for them to go out in traditional clothes. In our country, photo studios also rent some cheap "traditional clothes", including clothes similar to Hanfu, but most people wear these clothes just to be photographed. Therefore, many foreigners can't distinguish Hanfu from kimono, and often regard Hanfu as a kimono, and even think that Hanfu is a kind of clothing influenced by kimono. Because many people wear kimonos, but few people wear Hanfu.
