In China, young people call this 邪修 (xié xiū) – unconventional shortcuts that break the "normal rules" but still get the job done. So why are people so obsessed with these strange little life hacks? Let's dive in. CONTACT THE TEAM We'd love to hear your feedback or suggestions for future buzzwords! Email: [email protected] Facebook: @crilearnchinese TikTok: @takeaway.chinese
