U+7B9C "箜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that refers to a specific type of ancient musical instrument, the konghou, a Chinese harp or angular zither that was historically played in East Asia. This ideograph combines the bamboo radical (⺮) with the phonetic component 空, indicating both its material association with bamboo crafting and its pronunciation. The konghou was particularly popular during the Han and Tang dynasties, often depicted in classical poetry and artwork, and its revival in modern Chinese music highlights its enduring cultural significance.
