U+C038 "쀸" Hangul Syllable Bbwik Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
쀸
U+C038 "쀸" Hangul Syllable Bbwik is a single glyph representing the Korean syllable composed of the double consonant ㅃ (ssangbieup) and the vowel ㅟ (wi), ending with the consonant ㄱ (giyeok). It is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which contains precomposed syllables for the modern Korean alphabet, and its usage reflects the phonetic structure of the Korean language where individual jamo (letters) are combined into syllabic blocks. This particular character would appear in Korean text primarily for words or names that require the specific "bbwik" sound, though it is less common than many other syllables due to the relative rarity of its constituent phonemes in everyday vocabulary.
