History

This emoji is a ZWJ (Zero Width Joiner) sequence, which combines multiple Unicode characters to render as a single image. While early emojis were limited to generic faces, the push for diverse representation led to the 2015 rollout of skin tone modifiers, allowing users to better reflect the reality of modern, globalized relationships.
