Look up the origins of the oil lamp dance carefully. In the era your drama is set in, dancers performed with candles. Do not carelessly appropriate another country's cultural heritage. Show some respect!.

@shxrxxmm Why don’t you tell them to use their own traditional outfits like the ones in the videos you showed me, instead of copying another culture’s clothing?
@shxrxxmm Instead of showing me videos of the dance, please do some research into the historical background of the oil lamp dance, like the evidence I shared with you. 🙏🏻
The candle dance is a traditional Rakhine dance that was revived in 1996. Rakhine and Lanna are geographically very far apart,so how can we simply assume that it’s originally a Lanna dance? I think it’s worth looking into the history before making that assumption

Some people say the costumes are inspired by Lanna culture, so I’d like to point out some historical context. Lanna came under Burmese rule in 1558, and Burmese rule over Chiang Mai ended in 1774–1775, while the Yadanarbon era began in 1853
International fans, please listen carefully. This is clearly a copy, and it has absolutely nothing to do with Thai culture.@GMMTV

@shxrxxmm I think you misunderstood my point. Fon Tian and the Rakhine Oil Lamp Dance have different cultural and religious meanings. The Rakhine dance is performed as an offering of light to the Buddha, and it is a culturally sensitive tradition in Myanmar+
FonTian and the Rakhine Oil Lamp Dance are different.The Rakhine dance symbolizes offering light to the Buddha, with archaeological evidence linking the tradition to the ancient Vesali period.Fon Tian is performed with lit candles held in the hands not oil lamp
