(5)A conservative group is holding an anti-collective rally in front of the Chinese Embassy in Myeong-dong, Seoul, on February 11 this year Yonhap News Agency
(6)This year marks the 30th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Korea and China, but Koreans’ assessment of China is more negative than everThe recent U.S. diplomatic magazine Diplomat is drawing attention by analyzing the causes of the steep increase in negative perception of China among Koreans and the impact of this phenomenon on Chinese diplomacy

(1)Diplomat published an article on the 24th local time titled “Koreans Have the World’s Most Negative Views on China. Why?” The media cited the results of a poll conducted to explore the worldview of China as part of the Sinophone Borderland Project, which involved more than 80,000 people from 56 countries online from 2020 to this year

(2)In March 2018, about 270,000 people signed an online petition to Cheong Wa Dae demanding that the South Korean government hold China responsible for cross-border air pollution In 2019, when China denied that Korea’s air pollution originated from China, a Korean conservative group staged a protest in front of the Chinese Embassy in Korea As such, it seems that Koreans’ unique negative view of China stems from the theory of responsibility for fine dust
