What Is an Invisible Character?
An invisible character โ also called a blank character, hidden character or zero-width character โ is a Unicode character that has no visible glyph. It exists in the text data, occupies a position in the string, but produces nothing you can see on screen. The most well-known example is the Zero Width Space (U+200B), a character with zero visual width that still counts as a character to most software.
These characters were originally created for legitimate typographic and linguistic purposes. Zero Width Joiner controls how characters combine in scripts like Arabic and Devanagari. Non-Breaking Space prevents unwanted line breaks in HTML and word processors. Hangul Filler is used in Korean typography. The fact that they render invisibly is a side effect โ but one that has found a huge number of practical uses online.

Game Username Tricks
Many games like Roblox, PUBG and CS:GO allow Hangul Filler as a blank username character.
SEO and Content Spacing
