Then I was in a museum in my hometown Swatow and found out there was a teochew merchant who was sold to America or mexico(I forgot which one ) as labor and learned Spanish and English. The man was so fluent in English and Spanish that later when he returned to China, he became an unofficial diplomat for helping communication between Europeans and the Chinese officials. I forgot his name, I will update it once I found it when I am back to that museum in my hometown

Japanese and Korean "traditional" architecture are real Chinese architecture (different dynasties architectural styles). The Chinese character " 華 " represents " China/Chinese(Han) ", and the image of " 華 " is a logo of Chinese architectural wood structure, which is the unique architectural style of China. It represents the extent of the power and influence of ancient China. Japanese "traditional" architecture was replicated by the Chinese Tang Dynasty architecture (black roof). Many buildings were replicated at the time of Chinese Tang Dynasty architecture (simple version) at that time. It was almost the same. In the Ming Dynasty of China, it was in charge of Korea's territory and regime. It was a Chinese architecture built by colonial Korea (it was created by the technical guidance of the Chinese), and it was by no means Korean "traditional" architecture. In ancient Korea, there was no such complex architectural technology. Korea's local traditional architecture was a cottage built by grass.

Many western cultures have some relation with Roma or Greece. That is fact and everybody knows.

What happened during the Cultural Revolution in China is totally distraction of traditional Chinese culture by Chinese government, CCP. So no wonder why you don't see many chinese culture these days every where because Chinese destroyed Chinese culture by their own. So some of Chinese students or professor would come Japan to research old Chinese stuff.

As the late and great Anthony Bourdain once said, "Even if you've never had Chinese food, you've had Chinese food. Everything from noodles to pasta to ketchup to ice cream had their origins in Chinese cuisine. Yes, ice cream. Chinese chefs in the Tang dynasty mixed ice with goat milk and honey, with a touch of salt to keep it from freezing solid, then added camphor - the vanilla of the time - for flavor. Basically, 'vanilla ice cream.

Are u serious? Even If chinese people had a form of ice cream, the European version didn't get their inspiration from china. Logo graphics writing was invented in first in Egypt. Does that mean china didn't invented its owne version?

[@joeyp1927]

@@CaliforniaDreams-eb8sx The key iss communication: there was little contact between East and West 4000-5000 years ago when China first developed its writing system, so it's unlikely they were inspired by the Egyptians. 800 years ago? Sure, there was lots of communication. You had the Silk Road, and many Persian and Italian travelers and merchants, not just Marco Polo, wrote about Chinese products and often brought them over. Noodles, sauerkraut, paper money, silk. tt's possible if not likely that word of an exotic sweet ice milk treat reached the Middle East and then the West, just like so many other things. At any rate, my point was that the Chinese came up with a lot of common things long before most other peoples, and ice cream is one example. Yet they rarely get credit.

[@xuan3236]

there's a difference between fucking noodles and ice cream lmao. Don't get ahead of yourself now. Honestly insane how you consider them to be creators of ketchup when the ingredient wasn't even in china.

[@joeyp1927]

​@@xuan3236 LMAO no YOU don't get ahead of yourself. I don't 'consider' them the creators of ketchup; *HISTORIANS* do. So go ahead and call The National Geographic 'insane'. In their article "How Was Ketchup Invented?" they explain the 'Hokkien Chinese' origins of ketchup. Another article: "The Cosmopolitan Ingredient: An Exploration of Ketchup's Chinese Origins" by Dan Jurafsky at Slate. So ketchup's Chinese, right down to the word. Don't get ahead of yourself until you learn some history; and realize your ignorance. Which is obvious when you say "the ingredient". For ketchup was considered 'ketchup' long before it was made with tomato products; even in the West, it was first made with mushrooms and the tomato sauce version came 100 years later. Wikipedia says: "The unmodified term ("ketchup") now typically refers to tomato ketchup,[1] although early recipes for various different varieties of ketchup contained mushrooms, oysters, mussels, egg whites, grapes or walnuts." The term might come from the Cantonese keh jiap which means 'tomato sauce'; through the Spanish galleon trade, the Chinese got tomatoes but they had a jelly-like sweet-sour sauce known as ketchup long before. But the term probably comes from Fujianese word Koeh-chiap which refers to a jelly-like sweet brine-based sauce. As for noodles and ice cream being different, what's your point? In both cases, the earliest food that can be considered noodles or ice cream did come from China; dessicated noodles were discovered in Chinese gravesites over 2,000 years old. Through the Silk Road, Arab and Italian travelers learned of and wrote about exotic foods, which is how they inspired Middle Eastern and Western versions.

oh yeah well said. we can talk about Aristotle and Platon were raising in Greece around the same time of Confucius and Laozi and yes there aren't much communications between.

Korea and Vietnam were not just vassal states, but they were actually part of China. As for the Japanese, except for the minority aborigines, like Burakumins, Ainus, etc. (just like the aborigines in Taiwan province) their ancestors were from China, and DNA tests prove it. The one key milestone was when Xufu (Jofuku) went over to the eastern islands of Japan together with 5000 boys and 5000 girls to find the elixir of life for Emperor Qin Shihuang of China dring the Qin Dynasty. It was said that he became the first emperor of Japan. The Japanese themselves never denied it.

Being dominated by one great power doesnt mean they dont have their own unique culture and language that is completely different to Chinese. China alone have many ethic groups and language. Does China reject their subjugation under the Mongols or do they embrace it? Vietnamese or Korea or Japanese dont reject what Chinese contribute to civilization, they embrace it. What sovereign nations dont like is others projecting their dominance over them. South Korea and Japanese these days have no real culture, they are just USA lapdogs or vassals.

@@metalvideos1961 domisticate by chinese and The earliest written record of shiitake cultivation is seen in the Records of Longquan County (龍泉縣志) compiled by He Zhan (何澹) in 1209 during the Song dynasty in China.[8] The 185-word description of shiitake cultivation from that literature was later cross-referenced many times and eventually adapted in a book by a Japanese horticulturist Satō Chūryō (佐藤中陵) in 1796, the first book on shiitake cultivation in Japan.[9] The Japanese cultivated the mushroom by cutting shii trees with axes and placing the logs by trees that were already growing shiitake or contained shiitake spores.[10][11] Before 1982, the Japan Islands' variety of these mushrooms could only be grown in traditional locations using ancient methods.[12] A 1982 report on the budding and growth of the Japanese variety revealed opportunities for commercial cultivation in the United States.[13]

Western countries, Japan, and Korea think that the Chinese Cheongsam as representation of the Chinese dress when actually it is the Hanfu.

Gojoseon and Buyeo, even more ancient Korean kingdoms were present in that area since 1126 BC and 2nd century BC respectively. Of course, after 926 AD, it has been 1100 years ago but you can argue that "Korean" blood has been in the populace long before the "new" immigration of Chaoxianzu during the late 19th century.

China is the Ancient Rome of the East, the only difference is it's still existing today.

The reason Chinese people start hating Koreans as being a culture-stealer because before the "Korean" tanghulu trend started worldwide, ROK actually tried a lot of times registering Chinese-originated cultures as their own in UNESCO. That sparked a lot of hate towards them in China and led to more attention towards cultural heritage by the Chinese, which is part of the reason why Hanfu is getting more and more trendy. *饮水思源*

But after the revolution and communism many Asian countries had to choose the west to look up to because they think China has lost its cultural roots because of communism.

It happens as South Korea became more developed in recent memory, resulting in its citizens having more time and money to devote more attention to their outward appearances. Generally as the country prosper, the more attractive their citizens will appear to be both outwardly and economically to others. Don't take such remarks too personally. Just focus on self improvement but not to the point of superficial and toxic like plastic surgery and excessive materialism. Spiritual, mental health is important as well.

[@luceafarul579]

@@s._3560yeah it happened to me too 10 years ago. However it does have something to do with the fact that a decade ago Chinese people didn’t dress as elegantly or didn’t put on make up and have nice skin compared to the Korean and Japanese counterparts. I mean back then even when I saw how my fellow Chinese people dress and present themselves I was face-palming so hard. But I think the big mistake people make is thinking that that’s always gonna be the case and cannot imagine Chinese people catching up so fast. Since in the west everything is pretty stagnant, no real improvements or change can be seen, whether it’s with people or with their society. So the impression of Chinese people is kind of analogous to: if after 10 years Americans start to become thinner and healthier, so people start to auto assume them to be European. Unfortunately in the case of US that’s not happening anytime soon.

It’ll show the world Chinese traditional civility is just as elegant as the European counterpart of handshakes and hugging.

Etiquette based on the order of superiority and inferiority does not need publicity

[@luceafarul579]

@@zen-mc4ju what? That salute is between peers, dear. It doesn’t require bowing either. The bowing is extra. Did you know that the western handshake, technically came from hand kissing? You might as well say shaking hands is also a sign of superiority and inferiority. The person offers his/her hand would be in position of superiority and you receiving it inferiority, if you want to interpret it that way. Which is silly.

[@jiayiandjulieinchina]

That custom was removed to prevent hierarchical society from continuing to exist. In places like Korea and Japan you can see the negative effects of it continuing. Like you have to bow specific ways for older people, speak with different words. China removing that custom is honestly a good thing.

[@luceafarul579]

@@jiayiandjulieinchina I strongly disagree. First of all, the salute of raising your hands as if raising a cup of wine, with the back of your hands in front, does not require a bow, and it was used between peers and friends and regular greeting. Second of all, there is no evidence of the claim that bows, like those of Japanese, somehow negatively affect society, social or otherwise, we still do bows universally in formal situations, for example when we shake hands the western way. Thirdly, as I’ve mentioned in my reply to the other person, hand shaking came from the hand kissing ceremony predominantly, where offering a hand meant in formal situations, that you ask the person receiving it to kiss it. The kissing eventually was not required and it turned into an inclination of the head, which indicates a bow, and now we have this universally. So should we get rid of hand shaking as well? And also by your logic, Hanfu came from feudalist China, that was btw, the logic the old communists used for why we shouldn’t be keeping any of these traditional Chinese heritages, because they remind us of feudalism and hierarchical society. Were they right then? Why Hanfu is okay but not the beautiful gesture of Chinese salute?

[@zen-mc4ju]

​@@luceafarul579 You have said a lot, but they are all subjective feelings. But these were born with the ritual and music system of the Zhou Dynasty in Chinese history, and the essence of the ritual and music system is a hierarchical and ordered society. Japan and South Korea are still societies with a very serious hierarchical order to this day. There is no doubt that hierarchical order is reflected in all kinds of humble words and honorifics. As for Hanfu, that’s another story. The Communist Party has never opposed tradition. Even during the Cultural Revolution, many articles by Confucius and Mencius were still included in textbooks. You can't confuse tradition with mechanisms that reinforce hierarchical order. If you really have a deep understanding of Chinese history, you will know that Confucianism has been transformed many times, and the direction of its transformation was to serve the needs of imperial rule.

Most things misbranded as “Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese or Asian” are Chinese inventions. They include noodles, dumplings, chopsticks, rice, rice wine, rice noodles, lamian or pulled noodles (ramen), tea, tea ceremony, matcha, soy sauce, bean curd doufu (tofu), miso, hotpot, paper folding art, penzai (bonsai), weiqi (game of go), koi fish, cherry blossom trees, zhajiangmian, tanghulu, char siu or barbecued pork (chashu), siu mai (shumai), etc. Yes, Japan wants to replace China as the “most superior Asian nation”. That’s why along with the help of American and western media and troll armies and anti China propaganda channels, they misbranded everything Chinese invented as “Japanese” mostly but also Korean and Vietnamese, and turn around to accuse China of “copying” them. Basically flipping the truth upside down. I’ve noticed this trend as I see more and more of my Cantonese cultural stuffs like wok and char siu misbranded as “Japanese”. The worst is seeing a video calling it “Japanese Peking duck”. Imagine calling it “Japanese Egyptian pyramid”. Japan and USA along with their military alliances are using their media to intentionally de-sinicize China, removing the name “China or Chinese”. Anytime you even remotely talk about Chinese culture, they immediately jump to the excuse of communism as a free pass to spread lies and do historical revisionism of China. Koreans are now calling Tanghulu, zhajiangmian, Malatang “Korean”. I’ve seen videos introducing “washi” (Japanese paper) and “hanji “ (Korean paper), even though paper is one of the Four Great Chinese Inventions (gunpowder, compass and printing) invented by Cai Lun during the Han Dynasty. Koreans are also distorting history claiming Hanbok influenced Hanfu, flipping the truth upside down. And claiming Confucius and the founder of Ming Dynasty Zhu Yuanzhang as “Korean”, and claim that Koreans invented Oracle Bones Script. I saw a video calling Chinese New Year as “Vietnamese New Year”. They don’t allow Chinese to call it Chinese New Year even though Chinese invented the lunisolar calendar that this new year is based on, but they make video allowing Vietnamese to culturally appropriate it as “Vietnamese New Year”. In short, it’s an intentional effort to culturally genocide China and erase the name China or Chinese off history because USA and Japan and their military alliances want to culturally, geographically, historically destroy and erase China. Then they turn around projecting and blame shifting saying it’s the CCP that is destroying Chinese culture, and that Japan and Korea are helping the Chinese to “preserve” their culture. Preservation is through recognizing China, not by misbranding everything other than Chinese. Theirs is not “cultural preservation”, but cultural genocide of China, and cultural plagiarism and appropriation. Japan, Korea and Vietnam are collectively called Sinosphere. Google search for Japanese missions to imperial China, and Japanese missions to Tang Dynasty. Korean culture is mainly a replica of Ming Dynasty culture due to it being a Ming vassal state. Vietnam was ruled by China for a thousand years from the Qin Dynasty Baiyue 百越 people conquest by General Zhao Tuo 赵佗, who founded the Nan Yue (Nam Viet in Vietnamese) Kingdom 南越古国, capital in Guangzhou, and also the Zhao Dynasty (Trieu Dynasty in Vietnamese) of Vietnam, until the Tang Dynasty of China. The very name Viet Nam 越南 (Yue Nan in Mandarin) comes from reversing the two characters for the Nan Yue Kingdom founded by Zhao Tuo. His grandson and successor Zhao Mo’s mausoleum is now a museum in Guangzhou, called Museum of the Nanyue King Mausoleum. Rice noodles 粉 （fen in Mandarin, fun in Cantonese, pho in Vietnamese) was invented during the Baiyue people conquest by Zhao Tuo, when his soldiers missed noodles and used rice plentiful in the wet south to create rice noodles. Yue (Viet) 越 means southern region of Yangtze River. Jiang Su and Zhejiang provinces used to be called Wu Yue 吴越。Fujian province used to be called Min Yue 闽越 where southern Min dialect 闽南话originated. Guangdong, Guangxi and Northern Vietnam was called Nan Yue 南越。Baiyue (Bach Viet) 百越 or Hundred Yue people existed south of the Yangtze River. Hiragana is cursive Chinese. Katakana is partial Chinese. Kanji is Hanzi, or Han Chinese characters. It’s called Kanji in Japanese, Hanja in Korean and Chu Han in Vietnamese. So basically Japan, Korea and Vietnam got their cultures and writing system from China. But they are now ganging up on China supported by USA to destroy and usurp the place of China, just like a bunch of proud fallen angels claiming to be “gods” while blaspheming their creator and calling God as the devil. This kind of intentional distortion of history and cultural genocide of one of the Four Cradles of Civilizations (China, India, Mesopotamia, and Egypt) must be stopped.

Fantastic post! Thank you for showing the truth! ❤

My Japanese and Korean friends have told me about their national pride that their governments had tried to eliminate the chinese characters from their written language. It didn't work. Particularly in legal documents. Too much confusion.

I'm going to share this with all my friends who are into Japanese and Korean cultures and I already know they're going to be very happy, but facts are facts and like you said a lot of it is shared culture and when you refuse to admit and acknowledge its origin regardless or where it's from, it just goes to show how insecure and narrow minded you are. Wonderful content as usual, thank you so much for all the effort and please keep it up! ❤🙏

[@jiayiandjulieinchina]

Haha been there before. I find that westerners take this subject harder than Japanese do, because like I mentioned in the video, they tend to acknowledge many things as being Chinese in origin. Thank you so much for enjoying our content 😊

[@erichin888]

I don't mind or care about adopting culture from other nation. but the most important is just acknowledge the fact as it is ,not distorting it to make yourself feel better. Not everyone can admit the fact,you need a lot of bravery.

The Spaniards were the first to trade tea from China Fujian province. The local Minnian dialect for tea it "de", or Spanish "te"... And then the English called "te" tea.... So technically "te" or later "tea" were actually derived from the Minnian dialect. ;)

[@Jaredbuncher]

All you need to know to understand everything is look at the all of history for 1000s of years. China fed civilization to Korea, Korea fed Japan. It was passed on to the third degree.

Ketchup literally sounds like Kei (tomatoe) and Chap (sauce) in cantonese chinese . Fun fact

[@CjxJamie]

The word ketchup first appeared in the 17th century, and there were no tomatoes in it. Tomato based ketchup didn't appear until the 19th century. The word is most likely influenced by Fujianese word kue-ciap (膎汁). The first Chinese that Westerners have significant trade and cultural exchange with were the sea-faring Fujianese community in Southeast-Asia, not the Cantonese.

[@cmaven4762]

There's a very good video about the history of Ketchup by The History Guy. You would find it quite interesting.

[@penangrubbish7450]

Japanese and South Korean cultures are well-known in the West, via the US and Hollywood, because both are occupied by the US military to this day. The constant rotation of US military personnel and their families through American military bases in these two countries is one of the main causes of the transmission of the cultures of these two East Asian countries to the West. You don't see the transmission of Korean culture through North Korea, do you? Similarly, until the opening of mainland China what little the West knows of Chinese culture is through Taiwan; which means from the remnants of the Kuomintang army which might just be a microcosm of greater China

And all those fancy, tasty, nice things of Chinese origin, which the West rebrands and celebrates as purely "Korean" or "Japanese" culture, are just a TINY subset of Chinese culture, cuisine, clothing, etc. People who're only interested in a tiny subset of amazing culture, just because their western media told them that it's fine to like it, really don't know how much they're missing out! Go travel to China and experience it yourself. What the West is hyping up about Japan and south-Korea, is nothing new in China and is just a tiny part of their rich and diverse culture, nature, history, art, food... The ruling western ideology makes people blind, unable to see things right in front of their eyes...

[@jiayiandjulieinchina]

It honestly makes me feel sad for them in some ways. Chinese is an incredible country and has so much to offer, but people miss out purely because of fear mongering

I read somewhere that the 'Japanese' Sushi has its origin in China as well. It was a quick meal prepared during a specific time in China. Check that out. Also, the so-called umami flavor discovered by the Japanese has been known in China for centuries. A lot of Chinese food has umami flavors.

[@剣豪ぺんぎん]

ive never heard of origin of sushi. but the point is that it was widely eaten and common food which could symbolize the Edo culture. which could symbolize japan for western people. Almost every food has umami. just a jap guy proved it scientifically.

People forget that China had civilization and culture before Koreans and Japanese had anything you can even remotely recognize as being akin to their present day nations.

[@tc2334]

About the hanfu vs kimono and hanbok. It's an extremely arrogant statement to say kimono and hanbok "came from China originally". This isn't true. By no historical record is this true. Loads of elements of Japanese and Korean clothing come from China, but to say that Japanese and Korean clothing simply "come from China" is irresponsible.
