After kimchi, persimmons are also Korean?

Expert: Some South Korean netizens behaved too extreme

　　[Global Times Special Correspondent Liu Yuan in South Korea Global Times Special Correspondent Jin Hye-jin] Chinese food short video creator Li Ziqi was besieged by South Korean netizens for uploading a video of kimchi making. This has become one of the hot topics in China and South Korea.

However, the "Kimchi Controversy" has not ceased, and Li Ziqi's persimmon making video released last year was turned up for discussion. Many people left a message in Korean under the video saying "Dakis and kimchi are both Korean delicacies", which once again triggered the two countries Netizens have a fierce war of words over "persimmons."

　　On the 12th, South Korea’s “Asia Today” website quoted Chinese media reports that Li Ziqi, who has 14 million followers on YouTube, uploaded not only the video of making kimchi, but also the video of making persimmon.

It is worth noting that some netizens who appear to be Koreans left messages in Korean under the video saying "Persimmons are Korean delicacies" and "Persimmons were cultivated since the Goryeo period, but the persimmons may have been eaten since the Joseon Dynasty." Joseon Dynasty During the time of Suzong, there were "persimmons" and so on in the catalog of gifts to China.

These remarks immediately caused dissatisfaction among Chinese netizens.

"Asia Today" reported in the report that the disputes between "kimchi" and "persimmon" are different in nature and level.

The former is complicated to make, while the latter is very simple.

Dried persimmons can be made everywhere in the world where persimmons are grown.

Therefore, the debate between South Korean and Chinese netizens around "persimmons" is meaningless.

However, such a topic can also trigger such a fierce "war of words". It cannot be said that South Korean netizens are not responsible, but "Chinese netizens who find faults have many problems."

Because with the development of China's economy, the pride of Chinese people has doubled.

　　According to data, the reign of King Sukjong of the Joseon Dynasty was 1674-1720, which was the Kangxi period of my country's Qing Dynasty.

However, "Erya", which was written in the Warring States Period or between the Han Dynasty, has a record of "persimmon".

Therefore, at the latest in the Han Dynasty, my country had already begun to grow persimmons.

There are several theories about the origin of dried persimmons.

One of the earliest in history is the specialty Yangshao Niuxin persimmon in Mianchi County, Henan.

According to "Mianchi County Chronicles", during the Han Dynasty, Yangshao Niuxin Persimmons were served as a tribute to the court.

The other one that is a little later is "Fuping Persimmon".

There is a long history of planting persimmons in Fuping County, Shaanxi Province, and there was a habit of planting in the early Han Dynasty.

In the Ming Dynasty, the production process of Fuping dried persimmon was very mature.

In fact, many Chinese people know that planting persimmon trees in front of the ancients meant: everything goes well and everything goes well.

　　In recent times, netizens in China and South Korea have had many fierce disputes over the ownership of kimchi. Earlier, Sungshin Women’s University Professor Xu Yoo-de had also sent a letter to Baidu Baike to protest against the expression "Kimchi originated from China" in the entry "Kimchi". Some experts said that some South Korean netizens have more sensitive national self-esteem, and their expressions are too extreme. Certain remarks with a "cultural conflict" color are very undesirable.
