Why do many people in China like to watch costume dramas?

There are three reasons why many people in China like to watch costume dramas: they have a sense of distance, curiosity and mystery about ancient times; Bring yourself into the plot and assume that you have crossed; TV dramas with realistic themes are boring, and costume dramas are more in line with imagination.

1. Far from ancient times, I feel curious and mysterious. Because of the age, modern people can't understand that era, so there is a sense of mystery. Many costume dramas are set in the palace, where emperors, queens, princes and concubines wear gorgeous clothes and live in gorgeous palaces. From simple washing to eating and sleeping, everything looks noble and exquisite. This is far from the living conditions of ordinary people.

2. Bring yourself into the plot and assume that you have crossed it. Because China is a country with the longest history, the richness of subjects is unmatched by other countries, and others can't find such a wide history if they want to shoot it. Because I can't pass, I can only watch people on TV instead of me. This is also the reason why the network crossing text is so popular.

3. TV dramas with realistic themes are boring, and costume dramas are more in line with imagination. No matter how intense the process is, the final outcome of costume drama will make everyone's role have their own home, just like a person's life, from the blood of teenagers, the unrestrained youth, the gentleness of middle age to the silence of old age.

The audience enjoyed an artistic performance and got emotional satisfaction in the process of empathy. Even if you are not moved, you can have one more conversation in your life after dinner, which is a little comfort in the play. This is probably why people like to watch costume dramas.
