The peace/V sign became popular in Japanese photos from the 1970s, influenced by American peace movement culture and figure skater Janet Lynn. It spread throughout East Asia as a cute, fun pose. This cultural photography trend explains why the emoji is heavily used by Asian users.
With the palm facing inward (back of hand outward), the V sign is deeply offensive in the UK, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand, similar to the middle finger. This dates back centuries, possibly to English archers. The emoji shows palm outward, which is universally positive.
