Cross-Cultural Usage Tips
When using ๐ in cross - cultural communication, pay attention to differences in cultural backgrounds. In some more conservative cultural environments, don't use it on people who are not very familiar, so as not to be regarded as being too intimate. In multicultural communication situations, if it is determined that the other party's culture has a relatively high acceptance of such an intimate expression, such as in international youth exchange activities and other occasions, it can be used normally to express friendliness and affection.
