U+BD46 "뵆" Hangul Syllable Bwaep Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
뵆
U+BD46 "뵆" Hangul Syllable Bwaep is a precomposed Korean syllable representing a specific phonetic combination in the Hangul script. It is formed from the initial consonant "ㅂ" (bieup, with the sound /b/), the medial vowel "ㅙ" (wae, a diphthong), and the final consonant "ㅍ" (pieup, with the sound /p/). This syllable, while part of the standard Modern Korean syllabary, is rarely used in everyday contemporary Korean, as it would typically be encountered only in specialized or historical linguistic contexts. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures that all possible modern Hangul syllables are supported for digital text representation and processing, even those with low frequency of use.
