If you start IDLE from the console with 'python -m idlelib' you should see a TclError message when pasting.  This is a known limitation of tcl/tk.  Printing gives a traceback in IDLE's shell.
>>> print('\U00020BB7')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#26>", line 1, in <module>
    print('\U00020BB7')
  File "C:\Programs\Python35\lib\idlelib\PyShell.py", line 1344, in write
    return self.shell.write(s, self.tags)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'UCS-2' codec can't encode character '\U00020bb7' in position 0: Non-BMP character not supported in Tk
