U+AEF2 "껲" Hangul Syllable Ggep Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
껲
U+AEF2 "껲" Hangul Syllable Ggep is a precomposed syllable from the Hangul syllabary used in the Korean writing system, specifically formed by combining the initial consonant “ㄲ” (ssanggiyeok, representing the tense sound “gg”), the vowel “ㅔ” (e), and the final consonant “ㅍ” (pieup, representing “p”). This syllable is one of thousands of precomposed Hangul characters encoded in Unicode to facilitate the efficient representation of the block-script form of Korean, where each syllable occupies a distinct code point. While “껲” is a valid and correctly formed syllable, it is rare in modern Korean vocabulary and is not a common word in everyday usage.
