U+B71C "뜜" Hangul Syllable Ddyum Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
뜜
U+B71C "뜜" Hangul Syllable Ddyum is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul script, representing the sound "ddyum" through the combination of the initial consonant "ㄸ" (a tense, doubled "d"), the medial vowel "ㅠ" (like the English "yu" in "you"), and the final consonant "ㅁ" (an "m" sound). It is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible syllables formed by the Korean writing system, and while it is a valid and properly formed syllable, it is not commonly used in everyday modern Korean vocabulary. This character allows for complete digital representation of the Korean language and ensures that even rare or obsolete syllables can be typed, stored, and displayed consistently across platforms.
