U+AE70 "깰" Hangul Syllable Ggael Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
깰
U+AE70 "깰" Hangul Syllable Ggael is a precomposed syllable in the Hangul script, representing the Korean sound "ggael," which combines the initial consonant "ㄲ" (a tense, double 'g' or 'kk' sound), the medial vowel "ㅐ" (the 'ae' vowel, similar to 'a' in "cat"), and the final consonant "ㄹ" (the 'l' or 'r' sound). This character belongs to the Hangul Syllables block in the Unicode standard, which encodes modern Korean syllables in their finished, single-cell form for efficient text rendering and processing. In practical usage, "깰" appears primarily as a component of longer words or verbs in Korean, such as 깨다 (to break, to wake up), where it functions as a conjugated form indicating a future or speculative action.
