U+B957 "륗" Hangul Syllable Rwih is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul script, representing the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "rieul" (ㄹ), the medial vowel "wi" (ㅟ), and the final consonant "hieut" (ㅎ). It is used in written Korean to denote a specific sound that may appear in native or loan words, though it is not among the most common syllables in everyday usage.
