The "∴ (O艸O★)" emote or "Worried Shocked" emote is a Japanese emoticon that represents a face with wide-open eyes and a mouth agape, indicating shock or surprise. The two dots above the eyes represent sweat drops, suggesting anxiety or worry. The star at the end signifies a positive or hopeful outlook despite the initial shock.
