U+AF65 "꽥" Hangul Syllable Ggwaeg Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+AF65 "꽥" Hangul Syllable Ggwaeg is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul writing system used for the Korean language. It represents the phonetic sound "ggwaeg," formed from the initial consonant "ㄲ" (a tense, doubled 'g/k' sound), the medial vowel "ㅙ" (a diphthong pronounced like 'wae' or 'we'), and the final consonant "ㄱ" (a 'g/k' sound at the syllable's end). This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which includes all possible combinations of initial, medial, and final jamo components. While "꽥" is a valid and correctly formed syllable, it is not commonly used in everyday Korean vocabulary and may appear primarily in onomatopoeic expressions or technical linguistic contexts.
