U+C046 "쁆" Hangul Syllable Bbyulm Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
쁆
U+C046 "쁆" Hangul Syllable Bbyulm is a precomposed syllable in the modern Hangul script, used for writing the Korean language. It represents the phonetic combination of the fortis initial consonant “쁘” (a tense, doubled “b” sound) and the final consonant “ㄻ” (the double consonant “lm”), resulting in the pronunciation “bbyulm.” This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which was encoded to efficiently represent the thousands of possible syllable blocks formed from Korean jamo characters. While it is a valid and defined syllable in the Unicode standard, it is considered rare in contemporary Korean vocabulary and is not commonly encountered in everyday written texts.
