CJK Unified Ideographs Unicode Characters page 1

The CJK Unified Ideographs block contains characters used in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CJK) writing systems. These characters, known as Han characters, are logograms that represent words or morphemes rather than individual sounds. This block includes a large number of characters that are shared across these languages, as well as characters that are unique to each language. The unification of these characters in a single block allows for efficient encoding and text processing across East Asian languages, which share a common cultural and historical heritage through the use of Han characters..
