U+1106 "ᄆ" Hangul Choseong Mieum Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+1106 "ᄆ" Hangul Choseong Mieum is a precomposed jamo, or letter, used in the Korean writing system Hangul to represent the initial consonant sound of a syllable, specifically the bilabial nasal sound /m/, akin to the English letter M. This character belongs to the Hangul Jamo block of Unicode and functions as a choseong, meaning it occupies the initial consonant position in a syllable block, where it combines with a medial vowel and an optional final consonant to form a complete Korean syllable. Its presence in Unicode supports textual representation of historical and modern Korean, particularly when used in education or linguistic documentation, as it allows for the explicit encoding of individual jamo apart from their combined syllable forms.
