Comparison to Unicode emojis
TikTok's [surprised] differs from standard Unicode emojis like
😯 (hushed face) or 😲 (astonished face). The TikTok version features a more
cartoonish, simplified design with exaggerated raised eyebrows, wide eyes,
open mouth, and vibrant tones for emphasis. While Unicode emojis work across
all platforms, [surprised] is exclusive to TikTok and only
displays within the app — outside TikTok, it shows as plain text.
