U+BE7D "빽" Hangul Syllable Bbaeg Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+BE7D "빽" Hangul Syllable Bbaeg is a South Korean Hangul syllable representing the sound "bbaek," formed from the initial consonant ㅃ (ssangbieup) and the vowel ㅐ (ae) with the final consonant ㄱ (giyeok). In modern Korean, this syllable is not a standalone common word but appears as a component in various loanwords or onomatopoeic expressions, such as in "빽빽이" meaning "tightly packed" or "빽 소리" referring to a high pitched screech or shout. Its usage is relatively infrequent compared to more basic syllables, yet it remains a valid part of the Hangul writing system within the Unicode standard, which encodes the full repertoire of precomposed modern Korean syllables.
