U+9BC0 "鯀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
鯀
U+9BC0 "鯀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that represents the name of a mythical figure in ancient Chinese mythology, specifically Gun, the father of the legendary hero Yu the Great. In classical texts such as the “Records of the Grand Historian,” Gun is depicted as a minister tasked with controlling a great flood, and his failure led to his execution, after which his son Yu successfully completed the flood management work and founded the Xia dynasty. This ideograph belongs to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) Unified Ideographs block in Unicode, and its structure combines the radical for “fish” (魚) with a phonetic component, reflecting its linguistic and cultural roots in East Asian written traditions.
