Unicode Version 17.0
뱞
U+BC5E "뱞" Hangul Syllable Byabs is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul script used to write the Korean language, representing the phonetic sound "byabs." This character is formed by combining the initial consonant "ㅂ" (bieup), the medial vowel "ㅑ" (ya), and the final consonant "ㅄ" (bieup-siot), which together create a syllable that is not commonly used in everyday Korean vocabulary but remains a valid part of the Unicode Hangul syllables block for digital text representation and historical or linguistic purposes. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures that the written form of Korean can be accurately encoded across digital platforms, supporting the full range of possible syllable combinations in the language.
