Yakuza

Mnemonic

This radical looks like a yakuza. See him facing left, with that threatening jawline and big pompadour hairstyle? Maybe imagine a couple scars on his face too. You know, real yakuza-like.

You could also remember this because it’s the evening radical under the ground radical, and people who do stuff underground in the evening (and night) are definitely yakuza.
