Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+7B4B "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a logogram used in the Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems, where it carries the core meaning of "muscle," "tendon," "sinew," or "strength." In Chinese, it is pronounced *jīn* and appears in words such as *jīnròu* (muscle) and *jīngǔ* (physique), while in Japanese it is read as *kin* or *suji*, referring to both anatomical tissues and, metaphorically, to lines of force or essence in disciplines like calligraphy. The character is composed of the radical ⺮ (bamboo) on top, suggesting flexibility or fibrous texture, and the phonetic component 力 (strength), together visually connoting the tough, resilient fibers that connect and power the body.
