U+6607 "昇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
昇
U+6607 "昇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily represents the concept of "rising" or "ascending," often used in contexts related to the sun coming up, promotion, or elevation. It is distinct from the similar character "升," which denotes a literal rise, as "昇" carries more poetic or formal connotations, frequently appearing in classical literature, personal names, and compound words like "昇華" meaning "sublimation." Historically, it belongs to the Kangxi radical set and is encoded in the CJK Unified Ideographs block, representing a traditional variant used across Chinese, Japanese, and Korean scripts, though in simplified Chinese it is less common.
