U+B8C7 "룇" Hangul Syllable Roec Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
룇
U+B8C7 "룇" Hangul Syllable Roec is a precomposed Hangul syllable from the modern Korean alphabet, representing the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "ㄹ" (rieul, an alveolar tap or liquid sound) and the medial vowel "ㅚ" (oe, a front rounded monophthong), with a final consonant "ㅊ" (chieut, an aspirated alveolo-palatal affricate). This specific syllable, while structurally valid and encoded in the Hangul Syllables block for use in digital text, is extremely rare in natural Korean vocabulary, as the sequence "롷" does not commonly occur in standard Korean words, making it an obscure character that is primarily used for specialized phonetic transcription or in rare historical contexts.
