contents We present a concise review of the vector charmonium state $ψ(4230)$, which was originally labelled as $Y(4260)$ in the literature. As one of the earliest candidates for a QCD exotic states, its interpretation has initiated various ideas about possible manifestations of non-perturbative mechanisms in the charmonium mass regime. In this short article we briefly review the experimental status of $ψ(4230)$ and discuss possible theoretical interpretations. We will focus on four broadly investigated scenarios, i.e. tetraquark, hybrid, hadro-quarkonium, and hadronic molecule, and highlight the key issues based on these approaches. Crucial experimental observables, e.g. mass position, lineshapes, di-lepton decay width $Γ_{ee}$, production rates in $B$ meson decays, dominant hadronic decay patterns, and the potential $1^{-+}$ and $0^{--}$ exotic partners, are assessed, which can provide crucial structure information for understanding this mysterious state.
