U+B072 "끲" Hangul Syllable Ggyibs Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+B072 "끲" Hangul Syllable Ggyibs is a precomposed syllable in the Hangul script used for the Korean language, representing the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "gg" (a tensed sound similar to a hard 'k'), the medial vowel "yi" (which is a rare or obsolete vowel in modern Korean, historically representing a front rounded sound), and the final consonant "bs" (a cluster of 'b' and 's'). This syllable is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible combinations of initial consonants, medial vowels, and final consonants in the Korean alphabet, though many such syllables like "끲" are not used in contemporary Korean and appear primarily in historical texts, linguistic documentation, or as part of the Unicode standard's systematic coverage rather than in common modern writing.
