i've found some materials about this character, and it turns out that this character's original meaning is "bright", but now people have assigned a new meaning to it, which is " embarrassing". like in this situation which happened on my team the other day: Sheed went for a defensive board and he didn't get it, instead, he tipped the ball in for the opposing team. you can say this play is very "囧".
