What ๐Ÿ’œ means

Affection and close friendship, with a slightly playful or dreamy tone. For K-pop fans, ๐Ÿ’œ means love for BTS, whose fandom turned "I purple you" into a way to say "I will love you for a long time."

A safe heart for friends and family. It also marks support for causes that use purple, and it shows up a lot in fan accounts, concert posts and birthday messages.

In the US, Purple Heart is also the name of a military medal for wounded service members, so ๐Ÿ’œ can appear in veteran tributes.
