U+AFB6 "꾶" Hangul Syllable Ggyop Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
꾶
U+AFB6 "꾶" Hangul Syllable Ggyop is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "gg" (ㄲ), the medial vowel "yo" (ㅛ), and the final consonant "p" (ㅂ) as a single block. This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible syllabic combinations for the Korean alphabet. In standard Korean orthography, "꾶" would be used to transcribe a syllable sound that may appear in native or Sino-Korean vocabulary, though it is relatively rare in everyday usage. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures proper digital representation and interoperability for Korean text across platforms and applications.
