The "(´ー`)" emote, also known as the "Face Up Sad" emote, is a Japanese emoticon that represents a sad or disappointed expression. The two curved lines represent downturned eyebrows and the dash represents a mouth that is either flat or slightly frowning. The apostrophes or quotation marks on either side of the face may indicate tears or a feeling of being downcast.
