U+AD68 "굨" Hangul Syllable Gyok Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+AD68 "굨" Hangul Syllable Gyok is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul writing system, formed by combining the initial consonant “ㄱ” (giyeok), the medial vowel “ㅛ” (yo), and the final consonant “ㄱ” (giyeok) to produce the phonetic value “gyok.” As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, it represents a specific, standardized Korean syllable used in written Korean language contexts, though it is relatively rare in everyday vocabulary compared to more common syllables. This character, like all precomposed Hangul syllables, enables efficient digital text processing and display by encoding the entire syllable as a single code point rather than requiring separate consonant and vowel components.
