Why is China's traditional festival "Dragon Boat Festival" applied by South Korea as their intangible cultural heritage?
It is an indisputable fact that the Dragon Boat Festival originated in China. It should be said that at that time, it was generally believed that Asian countries could never successfully apply for the World Heritage (of course, this is another story). Because human oral heritage and intangible heritage masterpieces need to have three characteristics: uniqueness, integrity and authenticity. The Dragon Boat Festival in other countries does not meet the first two conditions. Nowadays, Gangneung Dragon Boat Festival in South Korea has been approved as "a masterpiece of human oral and intangible heritage", which is somewhat unexpected. However, the success of South Korea's application for World Heritage depends on its own protection and attention. From this point of view, we can't compare. \x0d\\x0d\ The successful application of Korean heritage is "not a bad thing", because as experts say, "Gangneung Dragon Boat Festival is different from our Dragon Boat Festival." Korean Dragon Boat Festival consists of dances, shaman sacrifices and folk art exhibitions, which is different from China people who eat zongzi, row dragon boats and commemorate Qu Yuan. "The only similarity is the time frame, which was held during the Dragon Boat Festival in China." This is not necessarily true. Associate Professor Hu Zhixiang, a folklore researcher in the Department of Literature and Art of Fudan University, has a different view: "There is no essential difference between the Dragon Boat Festival and the Dragon Boat Festival. Culture includes core part and influence part, and there will always be some changes in the process of communication. During this period, the core part is often preserved. The Dragon Boat Festival was originally a ritual activity in China, and the core part of the Korean gangneung danoje festival was handed down from China. Although' festival' and' festival' have different meanings in Korean, both the Dragon Boat Festival and the Dragon Boat Festival Festival should be expressed in English when applying for the World Heritage. " \ x0d \ x0d \ In any case, it is an indisputable fact that the Dragon Boat Festival originated in China! The legacy left by our ancestors was defeated. Why laugh at "this is not a bad thing"? Speaking of which, I really feel guilty. Last year, South Korea began to apply for gangneung danoje festival as a World Heritage Site. Not long ago, when a Korean company registered the Chinese domain name "Dragon Boat Festival". Cn "first gives us the feeling that it is" not a taste ". Now that South Korea has successfully applied for the World Heritage, perhaps most people are "not a taste". If the advantage is that it has brought us good enlightenment, injected modern elements into traditional cultural activities and gained international recognition, then it is of reference significance for the protection of China's heritage. Then, our Dragon Boat Festival (not the Dragon Boat Festival in a certain country) still has a long and heavy way to go to gain international recognition. We can't help thinking that our failure is actually "beyond reason and expectation". Reflecting on the situation in China, we will find that the cultural characteristics of our holiday system are insufficient, and foreign festivals have been seriously impacted. Most people pursue foreign festival culture but lack understanding of their own nation, let alone love and protection. The board that South Korea successfully applied for the World Heritage just hit us in the face, just like the Korean film and television drama sold our patent to China-it was a good board, but it was not a taste. \x0d\ Dragon Boat Festival is not ignored because of foreign festival culture, nor because of deep feelings, nor because the national character of culture is under the banner of cultural openness. No matter how deeply we feel about the Dragon Boat Festival, whether the intangible cultural heritage in globalization is the common wealth of all mankind, we must resolutely defend our traditional festivals! Before applying, we don't have to be "outraged" by South Korea's application, because the result has not yet come out and there is still hope, and because South Korea's protection of gangneung danoje festival tells us how valuable a country's attitude towards its local culture is. Therefore, South Korea's application for World Heritage is also an incentive to encourage people to defend their ancestors' "heritage" and realize their own preciousness. And after South Korea's successful application for the World Heritage? We can only say that South Korea's success is still an inspiration. We can only place our hopes on other traditional cultures and care for and protect all kinds of traditional cultures, including the Dragon Boat Festival. If the successful application for the Korean World Heritage can arouse the reflection of relevant departments and enhance China's awareness of protecting traditional culture, it will be of positive significance.
