Unicode Version 17.0
븺
U+BE3A "븺" Hangul Syllable Byibs is a precomposed syllable in the modern Hangul script used for writing the Korean language. It represents the phonetic sound "byibs," formed by combining the initial consonant "ㅂ" (bieup), the medial vowel "ㅣ" (i), and the final consonant cluster "ㅄ" (bieup siot). This character is part of the Unicode Hangul Syllables block, which encodes all possible syllable combinations in standard Korean orthography according to the principles of the Hunminjeongeum. Despite being a valid syllable, "븺" is a graphic unit that does not occur in typical contemporary Korean vocabulary, making it a rarely used or theoretical formation within the writing system.
