Unicode Version 17.0

U+BC56 "뱖" Hangul Syllable Byalm is a precomposed Hangul syllable that represents the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "ㅂ" (bieup), the medial vowel "ㅑ" (ya), and the final consonant "ㄻ" (rieul-mieut), together forming a syllable pronounced roughly as "byalm". This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible syllabic groupings of the Korean alphabet in a single code point for efficient text processing. While the syllable "뱖" is valid according to Hangul formation rules, it is not commonly used in modern standard Korean vocabulary, as the final consonant cluster "ㄻ" is relatively rare and typically appears only in specific words or in the context of archaic or technical terms.
