Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+FE38 "" Presentation Form for Vertical Right Curly Bracket is a typographic variant used specifically in vertical text layouts, such as traditional Chinese, Japanese, or Korean writing, where characters are arranged top to bottom rather than left to right. It represents the right side of a curly brace when the entire brace must be rotated to align with the vertical flow of the text, enclosing contiguous content on its left side. This compatibility character originates from the Unicode block for CJK Compatibility Forms and is intended to be displayed as a mirrored or rotated version of the standard closing curly bracket, ensuring correct visual orientation in vertical typesetting systems.
