Thank you for your reply.
I will check if there is any function below char_length that is realized by
icu_ext.
substring|trim|btrim|left
|lpad|ltrim|regexp_match|regexp_matches
|regexp_replace|regexp_split_to_array|regexp_split_to_table
|replace|reverse|right|rpad|rtrim|split_part|strpos|substr|starts_with
Best regards,

It does.
with strings(s) as (
values (U&'\+0066FE' || U&'\+0E0103'),
(U&'\+00304B' || U&'\+00309A')
)
select s,
octet_length(s),
char_length(s),
(select count(*) from icu_character_boundaries(s,'en')) as graphemes from
strings;
s | octet_length | char_length | graphemes
