That is not a kanji as anyone could tell. It's a designed character meaning "Spring".

The original kanji is 春.

supposed to be haru by using the flower at the bottom it's kind of a "play on words" almost :D

But haru is a Korean word for 'day'. Japanese one is hi (日). Am I mistaken? You confused me you know :D I know something about nihongo but I don't have any faith in my 'wisdom' ^^

The Japanese word for spring is

春

pronounced "haru". Korean has no place in this conversation.

ah sumimasen i misunderstood by thinking that he/she meant the word 'day' alone, not the 'spring'. Cuz in this kanji there is a small kanji-day- replaced by the flower ;D
