Here I have a Unicode String like below:

const uString = '\u0091\u00e5\u00b8\u0081\u00ef';

I want to parse it use Javascript, but no matter what method I use, the result always is:

const result = `å¸ï`;

I know it's not the true meaning of the Unicode string represent. So I want to know, it's there some ways to parse it correctly?

The output is correct, what are you expecting it to be? – Etheryte Dec 27 '17 at 12:52

It isn't clear if that's just code you run, or a source file that you are parsing yourself (not just running it directly). – Álvaro González Dec 27 '17 at 13:06
