Characters in the same phonetic series (往) (Zhengzhang, 2003) 
Old Chinese
暀 *ɢʷaŋs, *ɢʷaŋʔ, *ɢʷaŋs
誑 *kʷaŋs, *ɡʷaŋ, *kʷaŋs
枉 *qʷaŋʔ
往 *ɢʷaŋ

Originally phono-semantic compound (形聲／形声, OC *ɢʷaŋ) : semantic 止 (“foot”) + phonetic 王 (OC *ɢʷaŋ, *ɢʷaŋs). Later 彳 was added to form phono-semantic compound (形聲／形声, OC *ɢʷaŋ) : semantic 彳 (“walk”) + semantic 止 (“foot”) + phonetic 王 (OC *ɢʷaŋ, *ɢʷaŋs).

The 止 and 王 have since fused into 㞷 and now 主.
