Unicode Version 17.0
렞
U+B81E "렞" Hangul Syllable Rej is a precomposed syllabic block in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic syllable "rej." It is formed by combining the initial consonant "ㄹ" (rieul), the medial vowel "ㅔ" (e), and the final consonant "ㅈ" (jieut), though it does not correspond to a common or natural Korean word in standard vocabulary. As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, this character was encoded to support the systematic representation of all possible syllabic combinations in Korean, even those that are rare or unused in everyday language, thereby ensuring comprehensive digital text handling and typographic consistency for the Korean script.
