CJK Compatibility Ideograph FA98

407/472

FA98 is a legacy encoding form that maps to the Han character 滛, which Chinese-language variant dictionaries record as a variant of 淫. Its separate code point preserves a distinction in older North Korean text data; new writing normally uses 滛.

Text symbol

What 滛 means

FA98 maps to the Han character 滛.

Chinese-language dictionaries record 滛 as a variant or erroneous form of 淫. FA98's documented computer source is entry KP1-5281 in North Korea's KPS 10721-2000; keeping it lets older text convert to Unicode and back without losing the distinction in its source encoding.

Use FA98 in new text only to preserve an older encoded distinction; otherwise use 滛.

Unicode normalization may replace FA98 with 滛.

Can Unicode normalization change FA98?

Yes. Compatibility normalization can replace FA98 with 滛. To retain the old distinction, use the standardized variation sequence U6EDB UFE00 where the receiving software and font support it.

Why does FA98 show as a box?

The character is present, but the selected font or app lacks a glyph for it. A CJK font with this glyph can display it; normalization will not add font coverage.
