Chinese 'Abnormal Summit' discusses rumors on Koreans' historical misinterpretations


(To the Korean panelist): So is Confucius Chinese or Korean?



(Other panelists are shocked at the sensitive question)



Korean panelist: I don't know where this rumor came from. 99.9999% of Koreans know Confucius is Chinese. On this spot, I'll represent all Koreans and say this accurately - Confucius is Chinese.



(Other panelists give an applause)



MC: I want to ask Dongsoo. Zongzi is popular in Korea, right?

(Zongzi is a food eaten during China's Duanwu Festival. China's Duanwu Festival originated from a poet Qu Yuan and Korea's Duan Festival is for wishing good crops.)



Other panelist: He's asking if Koreans think Qu Yuan is Korean.



Korean panelist: When it comes to Korea's Duanwu Festival, only the name is the same. Its origin is different. Korea's and China's Duan Festivals are two different holidays so this argument isn't necessary.



MC: So it's a completely different holiday unlike what everybody says?
Korean rep: Completely different, only the name is the same.

Pann: Rumors in China regarding Koreans that Koreans don't know about

1. [+1232, -8] More like 90% of Koreans don't even know who Qu Yuan is. We don't care about Confucius and Qu Yuan ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

2. [+716, -6] Huh... Do they think we're like them?

3. [+626, -2] These rumors are maliciously spread in China. A lot of Koreans get asked the same questions by Chinese people.

4. [+325, -0] They're so over-proud and conscious of themselves... If you ask anyone on the street, "Do you know Qu Yuan?", the answers will be "What? Qu what?"

5. [+288, -0] They chose a good Korean panelist.

6. [+288, -1] How about they stop claiming Gojoseon, Goguryeo, and Balhae as theirs?

7. [+244, -1] I'm so pissed off... The Korean panelist is working hard to explain to those idiots. I'm more pissed off because I'm learning Chinese. We have North Korea above and China and Japan on the sides. We get bullied everyday.

8. [+167, -1] They can have all their Confucius and Qu Yuan ㅋㅋ

9. [+160, -1] Wow... I've never heard of Qu Yuan. Why do they make rumors like that...

10. [+136, -0] They're stealing other countries' histories so they think other countries are doing the same thing.
