Emojis have imbedded themselves in our pop culture and can pretty much represent anything. Originating from Japan (learn more about that here), new emojis have since been created by various developers from all over the world. We're convinced there's no stopping new digital icons from popping up.
So what do you think should be the next emoji to capture a sentiment, culture, or trend?
JAPAN Forward is calling for submissions on Twitter.
