Review Detail of eziovi in Outdoor Webcast
Review detail
While this novel is quite good, it has some nationalism content. To be more specific, it's about Li ziqi's video in which she made kimchi, a Korean national dish but claimed it's from China. The relationship between China and other Asian countries has been tense recently because China claim that others culture is theirs. Anyway, the author support the notion that Kimchi is from China so for me even if the novel is entertaining, it's a nope.

Well from your name you're obviously a China fan so I won't bother. Even if the world picked vegetables don't directly translated to kimchi because the mtl is wrong, it doesn't matter because "one of our food blogger" is obviously li ziqi. Because I'm from a neighbor country to China, I know more about their situation than you, this is just one of many times they try to steal other cultures by vague words. Well, if you went to qidian, you can even see a anti-japanese genre which shows how hostile the Chinese are.
TaoistDave:you are a dumbass... I went to the site and the chinese is translated as pickled vegtibles, you are the one who choose to translate that into kimichi which is korean for pickled vegitables.
Just to chime in on this, for people outside of Asia it might be obvious that Kimchi is Korean, but the truth is that in those countries this is something that is widely disputed by experts in the field from both sides. Regional cuisine, especially in places with similar cultures, that are very close together or have a historical rapport of interaction have many of those conflicts. Like the croissant between France and Austria, or Kebab between Greece and Turkey. The reason for these disputes is often because both parties have a dish that is either very similar or that is identical but use a different name or a slightly difference process for it. In this situation, while Korea has Kimchi, China has the Pao Cai, which is also a Chinese term for Kimchi. To us, outsiders, it might seem to be something obvious, but to them it is a disputed thing. It is not just blatant "nationalism" or an outright lie. There are plenty of good arguments on both sides. In the end, it all comes down to their own personal traditions and it is hard to say which one came first and which one doesn't when both sides have such old cultures with so many years of history. Maybe one side copies the other, maybe they both happened to develop the same dish under different names. Who knows. It certainly isn't something that is worth having such a fight over when not even experts can prove with 100% certainty. Thanks.
