Why do more people like western musical instruments than folk music?

China's classical music pays attention to gentleness and elegance, while China's tradition pays more attention to inner beauty. This is a kind of catharsis of young people after the reform and opening up, and it is out of place to publicize their personality. Western musical instruments such as guitar and drum set can win the hearts of young people, but at present, the China 12 women's team has won the favor of the world with China's musical instruments internationally. Because they also add a lot of dynamic and rhythmic elements when playing, I think it's not that musical instruments are unpopular, but that a form of music has not been accepted by more people. But as far as I know, China's classical music is quite popular abroad, such as Beijing Opera. Foreigners not only think their clothes are beautiful and their martial arts are gorgeous, but also like to listen to the music played by these erhu and drums.
