Hard to believe...Chinese costumes appear at Baekje fashion show? = Korea

At the "Baekje Fashion Show" held as part of the "Baekje Cultural Festival" held in Buyeo, South Chungcheong Province, South Korea, some participants appeared wearing Chinese costumes.
A controversy has arisen over this. A netizen who is the representative of a hanbok brand and a cultural heritage commentator posted on his SNS on the 11th, "I happened to come across a video on YouTube of the Baekje Cultural Festival being held in Buyeo.
When I saw the image, I noticed something strange about the Baekje fashion show, so I took a screenshot and posted it on Taobao (a major online shopping site under the Alibaba Group in China).
"I looked for them on Taobao Mall," he wrote. Many of the costumes worn by participants in the Baekje Fashion Show that this netizen posted are very similar to the cosplay costumes sold on Taobao.
The netizen said, "Is it just me who looks similar? Is it an optical illusion? If they really are the same, I'd be shocked," and added, "I hope they're not wearing the same clothes. If they are the same, then I'm sure they're not.
The Baekje Fashion Show, organized by a private organization, was a special event during the Baekje Cultural Festival, which was held in Buyeo County and Gongju City from the 4th to the 5th of this month.
According to OhmyNews dated the 12th, a person related to the organization said about the costume in question, "The costumes shown at the fashion show were originally from Baekje.
However, the director felt that the costumes he purchased were too similar in shape and color and looked bad, so he ordered 10 more costumes through an internet site.
Regarding the criticism that "the identity of the Baekje fashion show was damaged by the use of Chinese costumes," he said, "I don't think that's the case.
It's not that there weren't any, but I thought that for the fashion show production, clothes of different colors, shapes, and different social status were necessary. At that time, Baekje was also actively interacting with China, so it became a problem.
"The organization is basically operating with a sense of service to the local community, and we don't make a profit from fashion shows. The Buyeo fashion show was also free of charge.
"Yes, the Gongju fashion show received some support, but there were more expenses than that," he explained. "We will be more careful in the future," he added.
This fashion show was not included in the official schedule of the Buyeo Baekje Cultural Festival, but was held at the request of the organization.
The fashion show was reportedly held without a budget. Footage of the fashion show was posted on a Buyeo County user channel, but as of the afternoon of the 12th, it had been deleted.
The Baekje Cultural Festival, one of Korea's historical and cultural festivals, is celebrating its 71st anniversary this year, and will be held from the 3rd to this day (12th) in the former capital of Baekje.
The events were held in Ungjin (present-day Gongju) and Sabi (present-day Buyeo), which were the two capitals of the two countries.
