Tips

history
Jung was drawn to Chinese thought: he wrote a long commentary on the Daoist meditation text 《太乙金华宗旨》 (The Secret of the Golden Flower) and the foreword to Richard Wilhelm's translation of the 《易经》, linking its oracle to his idea of synchronicity.
culture
His introvert and extravert are 内向 and 外向 in everyday Chinese. Through MBTI they became the slang i人 and e人, 'I-people' and 'E-people', which young Chinese use to call themselves shy or outgoing.
