Their unique bikini combines the western style and traditional Chinese Peking Opera elements together. The bikini girls look like the Peking Opera performers but nearly half-naked. The sponsor explains that they didn’t intentionally imitate and make fun of Pekng Opera. On contrary, they just show the world traditional Peking Opera. What do you think? Is it necessary to promote Peking Opera this way?

The school and the parents should work together to let the children learn about their ancient culture and heritage like Peking Opera.

Today, some Chinese pop singers prefer to combine some traditional things into their songs. David Zee Tao, a Taiwan pop singer, once added Peking Opera elements into his song "Susan Shuo". It sounds nice.

It is a kind of promotion for Peking Opera, right?

Wan No wonder I feel that many songs have the similar tunes. I used to think that there was something wrong with my ears. Now I understand that they just steal something from other songs.
