register
Internet slang. The 'I' is read as the English letter ('eye'). Refers to MBTI personality: I = Introvert, E = Extrovert. Paired with ('person') to form a casual identity tag, similar to 'I'm an introvert'. Very common in 2023-2024 Chinese social media.
culture
MBTI mania swept Chinese youth around 2022. 'I / E ' became identity shorthand the way zodiac signs once did, and dating profiles, memes, and TikTok-style sketches all riff on the I vs E divide.
