U+ADE8 "귨" Hangul Syllable Gyuls Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
귨
U+ADE8 "귨" Hangul Syllable Gyuls is a precomposed syllable in the modern Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic value "gyuls" (a combination of the initial consonant "gy", the medial vowel "u", and the final consonant "ls" in Korean romanization). As part of the extensive Hangul Syllables block (AC00–D7AF), it was encoded in Unicode to facilitate digital text processing for the Korean language, where syllables are formed by combining jamo (individual letters). However, in practice, this specific syllable is extremely rare in contemporary Korean vocabulary, appearing almost exclusively in specialized or historical linguistic contexts, and it does not serve as a common word in modern spoken or written Korean.
