坤

1. earth
2. feminine, female
3. eighth of the eight trigrams (bagua) used in Taoist cosmology, represented by the symbol ☷
4. second hexagram of the I Ching, represented by the symbol ䷁
5. (Internet slang) the equivalent of the character "雞", and even (derivedly) other characters which have the same or similar pronunciation with "雞"

   Origination: Chinese actor Cai Xukun (Chinese: 蔡徐坤) has a song called Only Because You Are Too Beautiful（《只因你太美》） and the first line of the lyrics is "只因你太美" which is misheard by Chinese netizens to "雞你太美" ("Chicken, you are too beautiful"). The mishearing phrase has left a strong impression on Chinese netizens, which resulted in Cai Xukun 's firm relation to chicken in Chinese netizens' mind.
