“Sail away! This radical represents the spirit of exploration and transport. Whether it’s a tiny rowboat on a quiet lake or a grand vessel crossing the ocean, "fune" brings the concept of the journey and the craftsmanship of navigation to any character. When you see it, think of the flowing water and the wooden structures that master it.”
