Unicode Version 17.0

U+BF99 "뾙" Hangul Syllable Bboenj is a specific precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic sound "bboenj." It is formed by combining the initial consonant "ㅃ" (a tensed double bilabial stop), the medial vowel "ㅚ" (a diphthong combining "ㅗ" and "ㅣ"), and the final consonant "ㄴㅈ" (a consonant cluster consisting of "ㄴ" and "ㅈ") as part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which systematically encodes all possible syllables that can be composed from the Korean alphabet. This particular syllable is relatively rare in everyday Korean vocabulary but illustrates the orthographic and phonological structure of the language, where tensed consonants and complex final clusters contribute to distinguishing meanings.
