Joker was also known as wild card, clown card, ghost card, or flying card in poker. In its early history, there were only 52 full cards and no Joker. Around 1850, some manufacturers added a card to form a 53-card set. After 1900, this card was officially printed with the "Joker" mark as the main card. At the beginning of the 20th century, another "Joker" was added. The two were distinguished by red and black letters as King and Little King. Joker originated from a special card used in the Alsace-Lorraine game of Euchre. In the game, two Joker of the same color were designated as particularly powerful. After immigrants brought the game to the United States, the Americans added a card higher than the designated card to the Euchre deck, which was the prototype of Joker. In terms of playing rules, Joker was usually the biggest card in a deck. In some games, it could replace any card, but many people would take Joker out when playing traditional 52-card poker (such as bridge). It didn't always work with other cards to increase the chances of winning. Sometimes it was redundant, sometimes it was the biggest, and it didn't have a specific character representative like other face cards. From the design and appearance, most of the standard poker jokers had clown patterns. There were clowns holding musical instruments, with animals, holding poker cards, holding magic wands, and many other types. In addition, the two jokers were a very strong combination in the hand. It was also related to the Fool's cards in the tarot cards. From the etymology, it was related to "joke." It could be understood as a person who told jokes and joked. It was related to the clown's amusing characteristics. The French invented poker cards, and the jokers represented the sun and the moon. This was also a saying.

If each suit and card count were calculated according to points, the result would be 365 days in a normal year. If the result was calculated according to one point, it would be 366 days in a leap year. Moreover, the poker cards were the epitome of the calendar in a sense. The King and the Little King were the special existences in this epitome. Together with the other 52 cards, they constituted the system related to the calendar.
