"Korea Stole It"... China Takes Issue Again with 'K-Pop: Demon Hunters' Global Sensation
'케이팝 데몬 헌터스'가 세계적인 인기를 끌자 중국이 또다시 트집을 잡고 있다. 중국 내 온라인에 작품 속 전통 매듭, 한약, 호랑이, 건축 양식 등을 두고 중국의 고유문화라고 주장하고 있어서다. 중국 최대 리뷰 플랫폼 '더우반'에는 "한국은 더 이상 문화 도용과 표절을 숨기지 않는다", "왜 한국적인 요소에 중국 요소를 넣는 거냐" 등의 반응을 보였다. 한국 네티즌들은 "누가 도둑질을 하고 있는지 돌아볼 때"라며 중국을 향해 따끔하게 지적했다.

On 'Douban,' China's largest review platform, comments appeared such as, "Korea no longer hides its cultural appropriation and plagiarism," and "Why are you inserting Chinese elements into Korean elements?" Korean netizens sharply pointed out towards China, saying, "It's time for them to reflect on who is actually stealing."
