Unicode Version 17.0

U+AD89 "궉" Hangul Syllable Gweog is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul writing system, formed by combining the initial consonant "ㄱ" (g), the medial vowel "ㅝ" (weo), and the final consonant "ㄱ" (g). This specific syllable, pronounced like "gweok" in English, represents a single sound block in Korean orthography, where each syllable is written as a compact unit.
