U+1F1F0 "🇰" Regional Indicator Symbol Letter K Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
🇰
U+1F1F0 "🇰" Regional Indicator Symbol Letter K is one of 26 letters in the set of regional indicator symbols, which are designed to be used in pairs to represent country or region codes based on the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 standard. When combined with another regional indicator letter, such as U+1F1F8 "🇸" for the letter S, the two characters form a single emoji flag, in this case representing South Korea as the flag for the Republic of Korea (KR). This symbol replaces the need for dedicated flag images in digital text, allowing any valid two-letter country code to be rendered as a flag emoji through typographic ligatures supported by modern operating systems and platforms.
