dramas, and the 2020 Miss Hong Kong Contest. The hanfu movement is spreading among young people to change the traditional Chinese costumes from qipao to hanfu. Also, Chinese users strongly objected to the addition of Hanbok to mark the release of "Shining Nikky," a Chinese game which was released in Korea on Oct. 29.

The characters written on the clothes are Hunminjeongeum, but netizens are still raising their voices.
