Corrected entry: In the Qing Dynasty which reigned China when the story was set, Chinese men, be it commoners or those in the palace, were all bald in the front and wore ponytails at the back. It's the same for Emperor or servants. Although Jackie Chan has a ponytail, why does he have hair in the front?

Correction: During the 268 years of the Qing dynasty, numerous rebellions occurred because of the strict rules regarding dress and hairstyle, this would suggest that not everyone obeyed the rules.
