About the left corner bracket symbol
In East Asian texts, the character 「 marks the opening of a quotation, functioning as the left counterpart to the closing bracket 」. It is the standard quotation mark in Japanese, Chinese, and Korean writing, where it sets off direct speech, titles, or cited material within a sentence. Unlike curved quotation marks used in Western typography, this corner bracket has a distinct angular shape that aligns with the visual style of CJK characters.
