U+66AD "暭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+66AD "暭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily representing brightness or the brilliance of the sun, though it is considered a rare or obsolete glyph in modern usage. Its structure combines the radical for "sun" above the component for "white," which together convey a sense of radiant daylight. Historically, this character appears in classical Chinese texts, often as a variant of related characters like 皡 or 昊, and it is associated with the brightness of heaven or the sun’s full luster. In modern digital environments, it supports the representation of ancient or literary Chinese, and it is encoded in the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block to ensure compatibility across East Asian scripts.
