Frequently Asked Questions
What does 🇰🇷 mean in a text message?▼
South Korea's flag, known as the Taegeukgi, featuring a yin-yang symbol surrounded by four trigrams on a white background. It represents peace, harmony, and the balance of opposing forces. Use when referring to South Korea, K-pop, Korean food, Korean dramas, or Korean culture. The tone can shift depending on context — a message to a friend reads differently than one to a coworker.
Why are flag emoji made of two letters?▼
Flag emoji use a system called Regional Indicator Symbols. Each flag is actually two invisible Unicode characters — the country's ISO 3166-1 two-letter code — which platforms combine into a flag image. This is why flags work differently from other emoji.
Does 🇰🇷 display on all devices?▼
Most country flags display correctly on iOS, Android, and macOS. Windows has historically shown flag emoji as two-letter country codes (like "US") instead of flag images, though this is improving. Some subdivision flags (like states or provinces) have very limited support.
What is the shortcode for 🇰🇷?▼
On platforms like Slack and Discord, you can type `:kr:` to insert the South Korea Flag emoji. On GitHub, the same shortcodes work in issues and comments.
