Note: [1][2]
In Unicode 1.0.1, during the process of unifying with ISO 10646, the "IDEOGRAPHIC DITTO MARK" (仝) was unified with the unified ideograph at U+4EDD, allowing the Japanese Industrial Standard symbol to be moved from U+32FF in the Enclosed CJK Letters and Months block to the vacated code point at U+3004.[3]

CJK Symbols and Punctuation is a Unicode block containing symbols and punctuation used for writing the Chinese, Japanese and Korean languages. It also contains one Chinese character.

Notes
1.^ As of Unicode version 15.1

The block has variation sequences defined for East Asian punctuation positional variants.[4][5] They use U+FE00 VARIATION SELECTOR-1 (VS01) and U+FE01 VARIATION SELECTOR-2 (VS02):

Chinese character

The CJK Symbols and Punctuation block contains one Chinese character: U+3007 IDEOGRAPHIC NUMBER ZERO. Although it is not covered under "Unified Ideographs", it is treated as a CJK character for all other intents and purposes.[6]

Emoji

The CJK Symbols and Punctuation block contains two emoji: U+3030 and U+303D.[7][8]

The block has four standardized variants defined to specify emoji-style (U+FE0F VS16) or text presentation (U+FE0E VS15) for the two emoji, both of which default to a text presentation.[9]

History

In Unicode 1.0.1, two changes were made to this block in order to make Unicode 1.0.1 a proper subset of ISO 10646:[10][11][12]


The following Unicode-related documents record the purpose and process of defining specific characters in the CJK Symbols and Punctuation block:
