U+BACD "뫍" Hangul Syllable Mwalg Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+BACD "뫍" Hangul Syllable Mwalg is a single composite syllable from the modern Korean alphabet, formed by combining the initial consonant "ㅁ" (mieum, representing the m sound), the medial vowel "ㅘ" (wa, a diphthong combining o and a), and the final consonant "ㄹㄱ" (rieul and giyeok, representing the lg cluster). This character corresponds to the sound "mwalg" in the Revised Romanization system and belongs to the Hangul Syllables block, which encodes precomposed syllables for the Korean writing system. While it is a valid and typographically correct syllable in the Korean Unicode standard, the word "뫍" itself is extremely rare and does not appear in common modern Korean vocabulary, making it largely an artifact of the comprehensive encoding of all possible phonetic combinations in the language.
