U+7D05 "紅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
紅
U+7D05 "紅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a logogram used in East Asian writing systems, primarily representing the color red in Traditional Chinese, Japanese (as the kanji kurenai or beni), and Korean (hanja: hong). Its composition combines the radical for silk or thread (糸) on the left, suggesting a link to dyed textiles, with the phonetic component 工 (gōng) on the right, which provides a clue to its historical pronunciation. Beyond its literal meaning, this character carries rich cultural symbolism, often associated with happiness, prosperity, and festivity in Chinese traditions, such as during Lunar New Year or weddings, and appears in classical poetry and historical texts as a vivid descriptor of beauty or passion.
