You know, I've always wondered how headgear like this managed to stay on people's heads. Do they simply glue it or is there some secret Chinese headgear wearing technique?

It is pinned to a bunch of hair gathered in a knot in a middle of it. I presume.

Yep, it looks like he has his hair tied to a bun under it. Sure, that article calls it feminine, but traditional Chinese culture is a little funny about that.

On that note, there's multiple characters with the name Cao, and DW8:E has at least one generic guy with the given name Rao.

Sadly, there's no overlap between the two.

Chinese names are given 'backwards', first the family name, then the surname.

I suspect they use stretchy straps.

Surname = family name.

How the hell would you overlap two surnames anyway?

Cao Cao is the best Cao because twice the Cao is twice the beef for hamburgers!  Delicious!
