There are different emoji meanings for peace sign hand emoji in different cultures:
- Western culture
- Widely recognized as a 'peace sign' (especially by hippies in the 1960s) or a 'victory sign'. Can also be a casual greeting or a sign for 'two'. Reversing the sign (palm towards the user) can be offensive in some UK/Commonwealth contexts.
- East Asian culture
- Very popular in photos, especially in Japan and South Korea, where it's often used as a cute pose ('γγΌγΉγ΅γ€γ³' - peace sign) showing a playful or cheerful mood. It doesn't typically carry the same political or historical connotations as in the West.
