Created attachment 62335 [details] catting the saved comment seems OK If I save your comment into a text file and `cat` it in konsole, it seems got rendered as your expectation.
Created attachment 62337 [details] pasting it into konsole running bash seems OK If I paste your comment directly into konsole running bash or vim, those characters also seems rendered as your expectation. However, when cursor is moved across those characters, it is noticeable that the displayed line will shrink or expand its visual length.

Forget to mention the previous screenshots were made in konsole-2.7.999 I think this is actually a specific example of the more generic problem in #96536. Since #96536 has been fixed recently, this problem shoule also be fixed now. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 96536 ***
