U+B967 "륧" Hangul Syllable Ryulh Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+B967 "륧" Hangul Syllable Ryulh is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "ㄹ" (rieul, sounding like an 'r' or 'l'), the medial vowel "ㅠ" (yu), and the final consonant "ㅀ" (rieul-hieut), which produces a pronounced "lh" sound at the syllable's end. This specific character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all 11,172 possible syllables formed by the systematic arrangement of initial consonants, medial vowels, and final consonants in the Korean alphabet. While "륧" is a valid and properly encoded syllable, it is considered rare in actual Korean usage, as its phonetic structure and the final consonant cluster "ㄹㅎ" appear infrequently in everyday vocabulary or standard words. As a result, this character serves primarily as a representational element of the complete Hangul syllable inventory rather than as a commonly utilized unit of written Korean.
