U+56E7 "囧" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+56E7 "囧" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that originally meant "bright" or "luminous" in ancient texts, but has been repurposed in modern internet slang to represent a facial expression of embarrassment, awkwardness, or helplessness due to its visual resemblance to a bewildered or distressed face, with the outer square representing the head and the inner "口" (mouth) element appearing like a downturned mouth or furrowed brows, making it a popular emoticon-like symbol in digital communication across East Asia.
