Anti-Korean Sentiment In China
Anti-Korean sentiment in China refers to opposition, hostility, hatred, distrust, fear, and general dislike of Korean people or culture in China. This is sometimes referred to in China as the ''xianhan'' (dislike of Korea) sentiment, which some have argued has been evoked by perceived Korean arrogance that has challenged the sense of superiority that the Chinese have traditionally associated with their 5,000-year-old civilization. South Korea established official relations with the People's Republic of China in 1992, and relations between the two states have, for some time, slowly improved to allow more economic integration, but tension still exists between the two states. Within the Chinese population, Korean culture has become popular in the 21st century. Amid a higher degree of interaction between the two countries in terms of politics and culture, however, there is still some looming anti-South Korean sentiment arising from various disputes between the two countries.

The term '' gaoli'' (高麗) refers to the ancient Korean dynasty Goryeo, while ''bangzi'' (棒子) means 'Stick'. It is used synonymously with ''han bangzi'' (韓棒子) or simply ''bangzi'' (棒子). Origin Huang Puji of the Nanjing University Department of History argues that the term originated as the Chinese language near-homophone "幫子" which means "helper", referring to the ''nobi'' servants that accompanied Korean diplomatic missions to China in large numbers during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, but this mistakenly became corrupted as "棒子", a term which differs only in tone.
