U+1F643 · Emoji 1.0 · Smileys & Emotion
Overview
Released in emoji version 1.0 in 2015, Upside-Down Face is simply a standard smiley flipped vertically, its mouth curving the wrong way. The character is encoded at U+1F643 in the face-smiling subgroup of Smileys & Emotion. Despite the smile, the inversion lends it a tone of irony, sarcasm, or goofy resignation, and it is often deployed when words mean the opposite of their surface meaning. Its short CLDR keyword list, including smile, hehe, and upside-down, reflects that ambiguous humor. The shortcode is :upside_down_face:. Because the artwork is derived by rotating an existing smiling face, vendor versions stay close to their upright counterparts, and the reversed orientation alone communicates the playful or wry twist that has made the emoji popular for understatement.
A classic smile flipped upside down, suggesting silliness or irony. Used to convey goofiness, sarcasm, or a joke gone wrong.
