U+3184 "ㆄ" Hangul Letter Kapyeounphieuph Unicode Character

U+3184 "ㆄ" Hangul Letter Kapyeounphieuph is a rarely used letter from the obsolete Korean Hangul alphabet, specifically representing a bilabial fricative sound that was once part of the medieval Korean phonetic system. This character is formed by adding an extra stroke to the base consonant "ㅍ" (phieuph), indicating a softer, aspirated pronunciation that no longer exists in the modern Korean language. Primarily found in historical linguistic texts and dictionaries documenting the evolution of Hangul, it is part of the Hangul Compatibility Jamo block and is distinct from the standard modern Hangul jamo used in contemporary Korean writing.
