꾛
U+AF9B "꾛" Hangul Syllable Ggoeh is a precomposed syllable in the Korean Hangul script, representing the sound "ggoeh" formed from the initial consonant "ㄲ" (a tense or double 'g' or 'k') and the medial vowel "ㅚ" (a diphthong combining 'o' and 'e') combined with a final consonant "ㅎ" (an 'h' sound).
