Unicode Version 17.0
곬
U+ACEC "곬" Hangul Syllable Gols is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic value /ɡols/ or /kols/. It is formed by combining the initial consonant giyeok (ㄱ), the medial vowel o (ㅗ), and the final consonant rieul (ㄹ) and siot (ㅅ), which together create the complex batchim "ㄼㅅ." This syllable is used in the Korean language to form words such as "곬이 있다" (golsi itda), meaning "to have a knack or reason," though it is relatively rare in everyday contemporary vocabulary.
