Actor Choo Ja-hyun has been put to the fore with a video using the "Pao Chai" subtitle that could empower him to justify China's Northeastern process. Recognizing the controversy, Choo Ja-hyun simply deleted the video 'quietly', becoming 'China version Hong Gil-dong' without saying 'ours are ours'.
Seo Kyung-duk, a professor at Sungshin Women's University, posted a short video on his 21st day of his instagram, saying, "Actor Choo Ja-hyun, who is actively performing in Korea and China, posted a short video of his ramen eating on his Xiao Hongshu (China version Instagram). However, in the scene where kimchi is wrapped in ramen, it was controversial because kimchi was marked as "Pao Chai" in the subtitle. The image that Professor Seo captured and posted together is a scene of a video posted on Xiao Hongshu of Choo Ja-hyun. Choo Ja-hyun is a content to eat ramen noodles made by Husband Woo Hyo-kwang at night. Choo Ja-hyun wrapped ramen in kimchi, and at this time, the Chinese subtitles of kimchi came twice as 'Pao Chai'.
Professor Seo pointed out, "There are many entertainers and influencers who are active in China, but it is worthy of praise for the national prestige and foreign currency, but I do not want to make any more mistakes." "I think that if you have a foreign influence, you should know the basic national sentiment," he said. "In recent years, there are ridiculous things such as the kimchi process and the hanbok process of China."
Professor Seo said, "After China's kimchi process, our netizens are constantly trying to fix the wrong part of Korea's kimchi in Pao Chai in all parts of World. And there have been many good achievements in the meantime, "he said." I hope that these small changes will come together and that kimchi will be steadily loved by all World people as Korea's representative food. "
China is one of the Northeastern processes, which claims that the origin of kimchi is Paochai, which is a Chinese Sichuan food, which refers to salted foods such as radish, cucumber, cabbage, and cabbage. In a situation where Korean food kimchi is misused and misinterpreted as China's pickled food paochai, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism revised the "Foreign Translation and Notation Guidelines for Public Terms" last year.The Paochai, which was presented as a Chinese translation and notation example of kimchi, was deleted and Shinchi () was specified. Shinchi is the Chinese notation of kimchi by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Livestock to clearly distinguish between kimchi and paochai. Shinchi is a word selected with the meaning of 'map and strange' considering that there is no letter that gives 'ki' and 'Kim' in China.
This is not the first time the word Pao Cha has been controversial in the broadcasting industry. YouTuber Frigia, who appeared on the Netflix reality show 'Solo Hell' and became famous, also posted kimchi in the Chinese subtitle Pao Cha. Frisia has posted a video of her eating a Chinese class in 'Billybilly' called China version YouTube. In the video, Frigia said, "I will come home and eat kimchi steamed like this." In the scene, the Chinese subtitle of kimchi was labeled Paocha, and Frigia was criticized.
So-won Ham was controversial last year when he was broadcasting live with his mother-in-law, China, on Instagram, calling Kimchi Paocha in Chinese. As it was a sensitive issue, the viewers demanded correction, but So-won Ham closed his eyes and ears and quietly deleted the video that had become a problem. When netizens demanded clarification, they uploaded only kimchi photos with a hash tag called '# Kimchi'.
China not only introduced a person wearing a hanbok at the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics, but also introduced the kimchi culture as if it were their culture in the video that sent a large display board at the opening ceremony. All are part of the Northeast Process.
In the case of Choo Ja-hyun and So-won Ham, Husband is a Chinese person and has enjoyed considerable popularity in China. Frigia was also an influencer who was active on the China platform. As the Korean stars of pro-Chinese tendency are stars, one word of them may give great power to China's wrong Northeast process.
