red envelope

๐Ÿงง

A red envelope (hongbao/lai see), used for Lunar New Year and other gift-giving traditions across many East and Southeast Asian cultures where cash gifts in red envelopes symbolize good fortune. Added in 2018 (Unicode 11.0), it filled a long-standing gap for a hugely significant cultural object across a billion-plus people's holiday traditions.
