This is about soft power, isn't it? There was a time when Chinese folk music was extremely popular in Korea, Vietnam, Cambodia, and the rest of Southeast Asia.

This is about soft power, isn't it? There was a time when Chinese folk music was extremely popular in Korea, Vietnam, Cambodia, and the rest of Southeast Asia.
Then Japanese folk music started to become really popular.
These days, it's K-pop that's super popular all over Asia and it's catching on throughout the rest of the world too.

And K-pop owes its roots to American pop and hip-hop, which itself descends from Americana/Roots music, so these things go full circle.
