Unicode Version 17.0
삏
U+C08F "삏" Hangul Syllable Bbyih is a precomposed syllabic block in the Hangul Syllables range, representing the Korean sound "bbyih." It is formed from the initial consonant ㅃ (ssangbieup, a double b or pp sound) and the medial vowel ㅣ (i, pronounced like the English "ee") paired with the final consonant ㅎ (hieut), which together produce a single, distinct syllable in the modern Korean writing system. This character is part of the comprehensive Unicode block that encodes all possible combinations of Korean leading consonants, vowels, and trailing consonants, allowing for the digital representation of written Korean without the need for dynamic composition.
