Why can South Korea successfully apply for the Dragon Boat Festival? What does the success of South Korea's application for World Heritage mean? Did China acquiesce, or did China not recognize the applicant? Reason: Because the Dragon Boat Festival is not valued, it is actually valued. Speaking of the Dragon Boat Festival, it reminds me of Qu Yuan, Zongzi and Dragon Boat, which can become a world heritage, indicating that the Dragon Boat Festival has a deep influence on world culture. It is precisely because of this factor that the Dragon Boat Festival was successfully applied for by South Korea.

Significance: Dragon Boat Festival will not be strange because Koreans have applied for World Heritage. If China's existing cultural traditions cannot be carried forward and organically combined with modern society, it is of little significance to apply for world heritage.

China has neither acquiesced nor denied the applicant. For example, Qingjiang, director of Hubei Intangible Cultural Heritage Protection Center, told reporters excitedly: According to the arrangement of the Ministry of Culture, Hubei took the lead in declaring the world intangible heritage on the Dragon Boat Festival, and it was successful!

Extended data:

Gangneung danoje festival declared by South Korea was officially recognized as a "human legend and intangible heritage work" by UNESCO on 24th Paris time. The once heated dispute between China and South Korea over the application for the Dragon Boat Festival ended in South Korea's victory. In this regard, experts said in an interview with reporters this morning that intangible heritage belongs to all mankind, and the success of South Korea's application for heritage is not a bad thing.

Professor Gao of Peking University, secretary-general of the Chinese Folklore Society, said that the Korean Dragon Boat Festival is actually composed of dances, shaman sacrifices and folk art exhibitions, which is different from China people's activities such as eating zongzi, rowing dragon boats and commemorating Qu Yuan. "The only similarity is the time frame, which was held during the Dragon Boat Festival in China."

South Korea's successful application for the World Heritage actually brings us a good enlightenment: they have injected modern elements into traditional cultural activities, successfully realized modern transformation, and gained international recognition, which is of reference significance for China's heritage protection.
