Unicode Version 17.0
꾼
U+AFBC "꾼" Hangul Syllable Ggun is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul script, representing the sound "ggun" as a single, indivisible character rather than a sequence of individual jamo letters. It is formed by combining the initial consonant "ㄲ" (a tense, double "g" sound) with the vowel "ㅜ" (a short "u" sound) and the final consonant "ㄴ" (an "n" sound). This character is primarily used in the Korean language, where it appears in words and proper names, and its encoding in Unicode allows for consistent digital representation and display across computing systems and platforms.
