U+3293 "㊓" Circled Ideograph Society Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+3293 "㊓" Circled Ideograph Society is a CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) compatibility ideograph enclosed within a circle, specifically representing the Chinese character for "society" or "association" (often read as "hui" in Chinese or "kai" in Japanese contexts). It falls under the "CJK Compatibility Ideographs" block within the Unicode standard, originally designed to encode characters used in Japanese typographic conventions such as telephone directories or legacy industrial standards. This particular character is derived from the compatibility zone, meaning it was included to maintain round trip compatibility with older East Asian character sets, and it appears as a circled form of the ideograph commonly associated with groups, organizations, or societies.
