U+9F8D "龍" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+9F8D "龍" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that represents a dragon, a mythical and highly symbolic creature deeply embedded in East Asian cultures. In Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese contexts, this ideograph often signifies power, strength, good fortune, and imperial authority, frequently appearing in art, literature, and folklore as a benevolent and auspicious being. The character form "龍" is the traditional variant, as opposed to the simplified Chinese "龙" (U+9F99), and it is composed of distinct brush strokes that visually evoke the creature's majestic and serpentine nature. This particular code point is part of the CJK Unified Ideographs block in the Unicode standard, enabling consistent digital representation of this historically significant logogram across different systems and languages.
