U+AD3E "괾" Hangul Syllable Goelm Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
괾
U+AD3E "괾" Hangul Syllable Goelm is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean writing system, representing the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "ㄱ" (g), the medial vowel "ㅚ" (oe), and the final consonant "ㄻ" (lm). As part of the Hangul Syllables block, it was encoded in Unicode version 2.0 in 1996 to support the efficient digital representation of Korean text, allowing for a single code point rather than requiring separate encoding of its constituent jamo characters. This character is rarely used in everyday Korean vocabulary but is a valid example of the systematic way Hangul combines initials, vowels, and finals to form syllabic blocks.
