U+62F3 "拳" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
U+62F3 "拳" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that also appears in Japanese and Korean, where it is pronounced "quán" in Mandarin, "ken" in Japanese, and "gwon" in Korean, and it fundamentally represents the concept of a fist or a clenched hand, as well as the act of boxing or striking with the fist. It is composed of two radical components: the top part is a variant of the character for "hand" (手), and the bottom part is "mount" or "big" (大), together metaphorically conveying the idea of a hand in a strong, closed form. This character is commonly used in words related to martial arts, such as "拳法" (kenpo or quanfa), meaning boxing or fist technique, and "太极拳" (taijiquan), the well known internal martial art. In everyday language, it also appears in expressions like "拳头" (quántou) for "fist" and "拳击" (quánjī) for "boxing" as a modern sport.
