U+AF93 "꾓" Hangul Syllable Ggoes is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul script, representing the phonetic sound "ggoes" which combines the initial consonant 'ㄲ' (a tensed, or double, 'g/k' sound) with the medial vowel 'ㅚ' (the diphthong 'oe') and the final consonant 'ㅅ' (the 's' sound). It falls within the Hangul Syllables block of Unicode, which was encoded to efficiently represent the thousands of possible syllable blocks used in written Korean.
