U+1F621 ยท emoji since 2010
The red pouting face is anger past the point of subtlety. The whole face has gone red, the brows are down, and somebody is about to hear about it.
It covers real frustration and theatrical outrage equally well, from canceled plans to a friend spoiling the finale. For anger with steam coming out, see ๐ค, but for pure boiling red, this is it.
In texting, ๐ก does not carry a widely used hidden or slang meaning, so you can usually take it at face value. People send it just as it looks, to add a little visual touch or set the mood of a message. Only a handful of emoji have a separate texting code, and ๐ก is not really one of them.
Its official Unicode name is the Pouting Face emoji. In everyday chat most people just call it the pouting face emoji or describe what it shows. Copy and paste it from the button at the top of this page.
The ๐ก leads off a short phrase, and the rest of the words are written in cipher, every letter disguised as another emoji. Tap decipher to reveal the whole line.
