Is it really stupid or really bad?, Using the Chinese national anthem to create music for Korean variety shows. Chinese people | variety shows | Korean variety shows
Recently, a South Korean variety show has caused public outrage due to improper use of the Chinese national anthem as background music. From the leaked program clips, it can be seen that many people were eating in the restaurant at that time, and there was not a single Chinese person in the entire scene. The food cooked was also unrelated to Chinese cuisine, and the scene was filled with laughter and noise, but suddenly the Chinese national anthem was played as BGM
As is well known, the national anthem is a song that represents the national spirit of a country, and is one of the most important symbols of modern countries, with symbolism, seriousness, and solemnity. Many countries around the world have set normative requirements for the performance and use of their national anthems. The national anthem of the People's Republic of China, the March of the Volunteers, was born at a critical moment of life and death for the Chinese nation. It embodies the sacrifice and struggle of the Chinese people and is sacred and inviolable. In this regard, China's National Anthem Law clearly stipulates that the national anthem shall not be used or disguised as trademarks, commercial advertisements, or as background music in public places. This variety show recklessly entertains and vulgarizes the national anthems of other countries, making people doubt its intentions.
Is this ignorance or is there no bottom line? We have no way to determine the true intentions of their team. But no matter what, this has greatly hurt the emotions of the Chinese people. In fact, South Korea is not without sensitivity regarding the issue of the national anthem. In another South Korean variety show in 2014, a Japanese representative appeared with the background music of the Japanese national anthem "Jun Zhi Dai", but the audience felt it was inappropriate and even the sponsor withdrew. Angering oneself is unforgivable, so what about hurting others?
Patriotism is the responsibility and instinct of citizens, which also includes consciously maintaining the dignity and authority of the national anthem. Taking the exposure of this Korean variety show as an example, even if there were no Chinese people present at the time, even if it was only a few seconds before the prelude, as long as the emotional damage to the Chinese nation was discovered, Chinese people would always stand up, express their anger and dissatisfaction clearly, clearly, and effectively. This is not only a correction, but also a declaration of China's attitude - the Chinese national anthem cannot be defiled, and the bottom line cannot be trampled on. Chinese people twisted into a rope, giving strong retaliation to those who offend will definitely force some people to guard their behavior boundaries.
"We unite as one, braving the enemy's artillery fire, advancing! Advancing! Advancing! Advancing! Advancing!" The resounding melody and passionate spirit of the National Anthem of the People's Republic of China is unique. Let us take good care of it with all our hearts, integrate patriotism into action, and sing the national anthem louder and more majestic.
