U+C139 "섹" Hangul Syllable Seg Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
섹
U+C139 "섹" Hangul Syllable Seg is a precomposed syllable in the modern Hangul script, representing the sound "seg" by combining the initial consonant ᄉ (s) with the medial vowel ㅔ (e) and the final consonant ᄀ (g). It is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible syllable blocks for the Korean alphabet, and its usage reflects the standard orthography of the Korean language, appearing in words such as "색" (color) when followed by the appropriate context or in other lexical items. This character allows for efficient text representation in digital environments, as it maps directly to a single code point rather than requiring separate encoding for each individual jamo component.
