U+BBF1 "믱" Hangul Syllable Mying Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+BBF1 "믱" Hangul Syllable Mying is a precomposed Hangul syllable that represents a phonetic combination in the Korean writing system. Specifically, it is formed from the initial consonant “ㅁ” (mieum, sounding like ‘m’), the medial vowel “ㅢ” (ui, a diphthong pronounced like ‘ui’ or ‘yi’), and the final consonant “ㅇ” (ieung, which here acts as a final velar nasal ‘ng’). This syllable, while a valid encoded character, is extremely rare in modern Korean usage and appears only in specialized linguistic contexts, such as transcription of foreign words or archaic texts, rather than in contemporary standard vocabulary.
