Definitions by theyluv_mjc

A Tagalog word that came from the English word "gang" meaning: Group of people, often young adults or adolescents, who share a common identity, hang out in specific locations, and are involved in criminal activity, violence, and anti-social behavior. Genggeng is also a style worn by many young Filipinos, and base on the definition of "gang" we can tell that they are very violent, hence being hated on. Teens in the Philippines call this style as "asim" or "maasim" and this word has 2 meanings: "smelly" and "corny asf", this is because many FIlipinos state that genggeng people dont have basic hygiene and would often be smelly.
Genggeng kana boy? Asim mo pre

(Are you a genggeng now? You're so corny)

Toyoko Kids

“Toyoko Kids” (トー横キッズ / Tō-yoko kids) is a Japanese term that refers to teenagers and young people who regularly gather around the area beside TOHO Cinemas Shinjuku in Kabukicho, a busy nightlife district in Tokyo. The name comes from “TO” (for TOHO Cinemas) and “yoko” (横), which means “side” in Japanese—so it literally means “the kids at the side of TOHO.”

-WHY ARE THEY CONSIDERED AS "BAD" IN TIKTOK?
The term is not just about fashion or style. It describes a social phenomenon involving youths—often minors—who spend long hours in that area, especially at night. Many of them are reported to feel disconnected from school or family, and some may be runaways or teenagers seeking a sense of belonging. While some simply gather there to socialize, the term is often associated in Japanese media with concerns about exploitation, unsafe environments, and vulnerable youth living on the margins of society.
Online, especially on platforms like TikTok, the image of Toyoko Kids is sometimes turned into an aesthetic—dark street fashion, heavy eyeliner, nightlife atmosphere—but in reality, the term refers to a deeper social issue rather than just a trend. Another reason why Jirai Kei is also considered as "bad" in tiktok because they are connected with Toyoko Kids.
