What does ๐ฐ๐ต North Korea Flag mean?
Blue, white, red, white and blue horizontal stripes, the red band by far the widest, with a red five-pointed star in a white disc near the hoist. People mostly use the emoji in news, geopolitics discussions, history lessons and travel documentaries, and occasionally when following North Korean athletes at international events such as the Olympics.
Technically, ๐ฐ๐ต is not a single character: it is the pair of regional indicator letters ๐ฐ ๐ต, which spell the region code KP. Apps that support flags combine the two letters into a flag; Windows does not draw country flags, so on Windows you see the letters KP instead โ the emoji still arrives as a flag on the recipientโs phone.
๐ฐ๐ต North Korea Flag is an emoji from the Flags category (country flags), added in Emoji 2.0 in 2015.
