How to indicate to a user that an image/emoji is clickable

I'm building an app where a user goes by an emoji.. that is their "profile name" so to speak. The problem I'm having is that it's not very intuitive that you can tap on a users emoji to get their profile page.

Usually with a name or username it's normal to tap on their name to view more about them, but with an image/emoji, I don't think it is...

This is how my layout currently looks:

Is there a way to indicate to the user that they can in fact tap the icon/emoji to see more? Once someone knows they'll know forever, but I'm not sure it's intuitive in the beginning.. is it?
