Been searching for it everywhere but couldn't find the answer to that. If I am not mistaken it must have something to do with "utf-8", but still have no clue what it is.

"\uf8ff" is actually a Java unicode Escape character. This is commonly called <Private Use, Last>
The general form of the escape characters are:
"\u{0000-FFFF}" -> Unicode [Basic Multilingual Plane only, see below] hex value does not handle unicode values higher than 0xFFFF (65535), the high surrogate has to be separate: \uD852\uDF62 Four hex characters only (no variable width)
Escape characters are always preceded with "\" and used to perform some specific task like go to next line etc.
