Unicode Version 17.0
ꥤ
U+A964 "ꥤ" Hangul Choseong Rieul-Kiyeok is a precomposed Hangul jamo used in the historical or archaic orthography of the Korean writing system, representing an initial consonant cluster or a single complex consonant formed by combining the sounds of the Reul (ㄹ) and Kiyeok (ㄱ) letters. This character belongs to the Hangul Jamo Extended-A block and serves as a specialized typographic unit for expressing an onset consonant that blends these two sounds, which was more common in older forms of Korean or in transliterations before modern standardization. Its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve the accuracy of historical texts and linguistic research where such combined initial consonants are required.
