뀃
U+B003 "뀃" Hangul Syllable Ggwes is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "gg" (a tensed version of "g") and the vowel "we" with a final "s" consonant. This character belongs to the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes syllables formed from the positional combinations of initial consonants, vowels, and optional final consonants.
