You should get a cap with mirrored logo so it looks like you're for real writing backwards.

I actually looked into that at first, but figured it wasn't worth the money.

I am Chinese and I too have no idea why we use "成" for saying percentage. I guess we will have to ask a really really old Chinese person. lol.

I truthfully thought 성인 was 性人… 😂

[@allyh7075]

If I remember correctly, 성화/Seonghwa from ATEEZ's name refers to the Olympic torch? So 성 for success and 화 for fire in Hanja, right?

[@allyh7075]

Wait no I meant the direct translation, not the meaning!! The meaning is to be a star I think?
