U+BA7E "멾" Hangul Syllable Myeolp Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
멾
U+BA7E "멾" Hangul Syllable Myeolp is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean writing system, formed by combining the initial consonant "ㅁ" (mieum), the medial vowel "ㅕ" (yeo), and the final consonant "ㄿ" (rieul-phieuph). This specific cluster, representing the sound "myeolp," is one of many complex syllables that illustrate the systematic and modular nature of Hangul, where individual jamo characters are arranged into a single square-shaped block. While it is a valid and defined character in the Unicode standard, the syllable "멾" is considered rare or obsolete in contemporary Korean usage, appearing primarily in historical texts or specialized linguistic contexts rather than in everyday language.
