Unicode Version 17.0
꾠
U+AFA0 "꾠" Hangul Syllable Ggyon is a precomposed Hangul syllable that represents the Korean sound "ggyon" and belongs to the Hangul Syllables block, which encompasses all possible modern Hangul syllable combinations in Unicode. This specific syllable is formed by combining the initial consonant "ㄲ" (ssanggiyeok, representing a tensed "g" sound) with the medial vowel "ㅛ" (yo) and the final consonant "ㄴ" (nieun, representing an "n" sound), resulting in a syllable used in written Korean. It is included in Unicode to allow for efficient text processing and display, supporting the full range of contemporary Korean orthography without requiring dynamic composition from individual jamo characters.
