U+ADE4 "귤" Hangul Syllable Gyul Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
귤
U+ADE4 "귤" Hangul Syllable Gyul is the encoded representation of the Korean word for the tangerine or citrus fruit, formed from the initial consonant "ㄱ" (g), the medial vowel "ㅠ" (yu), and the final consonant "ㄹ" (l) to create the syllable "gyul". This single character is a fundamental element of the Hangul writing system, used in modern Korean to denote both the fruit itself and related concepts such as "귤껍질" (gyul kkeopjil) meaning tangerine peel. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard ensures that Korean text can be consistently displayed and processed across digital platforms worldwide.
