U+AC7B "걻" Hangul Syllable Geolb Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+AC7B "걻" Hangul Syllable Geolb is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul script, representing the phonetic value /kʌlb/ (often romanized as "geolb"). It is formed by combining the initial consonant "ㄱ" (g/k), the medial vowel "ㅓ" (eo), and the final consonant cluster "ㄼ" (lb), making it one of the less common syllables used in the Korean writing system. As a precomposed form, it appears as a single glyph rather than being assembled from individual jamo characters, and while it is a valid character in the Unicode Hangul Syllables block, its practical usage in contemporary Korean text is extremely rare due to its complex and uncommon consonant cluster final.
