U+5FE9 "忩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
忩
U+5FE9 "忩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that carries the meaning of "urgent" or "hasty," and it is historically recognized as a variant form of the more common character 匆匆 (cōng). This ideograph is composed of the radical for "heart" 心 (xīn) placed beneath the element for "public" 公 (gōng), suggesting an emotional sense of pressing or hurried action that comes from a shared or collective context. It belongs to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) Unified Ideographs block and is used in classical Chinese texts, though it is relatively rare in modern writing, where standard simplified forms like 匆 have largely superseded it.
