The emoji was created by Japanese designer Shigetaka Kurita at the age of 25. He created 176 sets of emoji in the year 1999 in the form of tiny dots. These emoji sets became so popular that they are housed in the Permanent Collection at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

Emojis were included in the course at a British university last year. Emoji will also be part of the course in language, marketing, psychology and politics courses from all universities, including King's College, Edinburgh and Cardiff. Jeremy Berg, the founder of Emojipedia, declared July 17 as World Emoji Day to bring the achievements of emoji to the people of the world. The first Emoji Day was celebrated in 2014.

Known as the Father of Emoji, Shigetaka Kurita has neither studied engineering nor was he a designer. Shigetaka, who studied economics, designed the emoji for a mobile internet service company. Back then the number of characters to send an email was only 250. That's when Kurita realized that emojis would be the best way to express herself in a few words. That's why emojis were used instead of words in emails.

Seeing the growing popularity of emojis in Japan, the iPhone incorporated an emoji-keyboard into its mobile phones. Gradually it was used in SMS and chatting.


Added emoji word to Oxford Dictionary

The word was added to the Oxford Dictionary in 2013. In 2015, the Oxford Dictionary named the word emoji 'Word of the Year'. In 2016, the Museum of Modern Art in New York also included the first set of 176 emojis of Shigetaka Kurita in its Permanent Collection.


According to the Unicode Standard List, 3,304 emojis have been created so far. According to the Unicode Committee, a large number of new emoji applications are received each year.
