Unicode Version 17.0
끛
U+B05B "끛" Hangul Syllable Ggeuc is a precomposed syllable in the Korean Hangul writing system, representing the sound "ggeuc." It is formed by combining the initial consonant "ᄁ" (ssang giyeok, a tense double consonant) with the vowel "ㅡ" (eu) and the final consonant "ᆮ" (digeut), resulting in a block that maps to a single encoded character in the Unicode Standard. As part of the Hangul Syllables block (U+AC00 to U+D7AF), this character is used in modern and historical Korean text to represent a specific phonetic unit, though it is relatively uncommon in everyday contemporary vocabulary.
