U+BDCE "뷎" Hangul Syllable Bwej Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+BDCE "뷎" Hangul Syllable Bwej is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic sound "bwej." It is formed by combining the initial consonant ᄇ (bieup, pronounced as "b") with the medial vowel ᅰ (we, a diphthong combining "w" and "e") and the final consonant ᆽ (jieut, pronounced as "j" or a soft "t" in syllable-final position). As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, this character is used in written Korean to represent a specific morpho-phonetic unit, though it appears in relatively rare or archaic vocabulary rather than common modern speech.
