True definition of Duang?[edit]

Jackie Chan says, "一個廣告拍完後加上好多特技，頭髮動啊，很黑，很亮，很柔".

It turns out that Duang actually means "to wobble". "動" means "to move". He was actually describing how vivid his hair was.

Incorrect. It is clear from what Jackie says, above, that the correct English is "brillig."
