Unicode Version 17.0
쀃
U+C003 "쀃" Hangul Syllable Bbweoh is a precomposed syllable in the Hangul script, representing the Korean sound "bbweoh." It is formed from the initial consonant ㅃ (ssangbieup, a tense bilabial stop), the medial vowel ㅝ (weo, a combination of ㅜ and ㅓ), and the final consonant ㅎ (hieut, a glottal fricative). This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible combinations of Korean jamo letters into single, indivisible code points for efficient text processing and display. While not commonly used in modern Korean vocabulary, it serves as a valid linguistic building block within the systematic structure of the Korean writing system.
