U+BFE4 "뿤" Hangul Syllable Bbuk Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
뿤
U+BFE4 "뿤" Hangul Syllable Bbuk is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic sound "bbuk." It is formed by combining the initial consonant 'ㅃ' (a doubled or tense 'b') with the medial vowel 'ㅜ' (u) and the final consonant 'ㄱ' (k), which together create a single, indivisible character block. This syllable does not correspond to a common Korean word in standard vocabulary but can appear in onomatopoeic expressions, dialectal speech, or creative linguistic contexts, demonstrating how the Hangul script systematically encodes the full range of Korean phonology through its syllable block structure.
