Comparison to Unicode emojis
TikTok's [sulk] differs from standard Unicode emojis like 😒
(unamused face) or 😠 (angry face). The TikTok version features a
more cartoonish, simplified design with a pouting expression, crossed arms, and
muted tones for emphasis. While Unicode emojis work across all platforms,
[sulk] is exclusive to TikTok and only displays within the
app — outside TikTok, it shows as plain text.
Popular trends

Creator tip
Pair [sulk] with melancholic sounds for moody content. Use it
