U+C345 "썅" Hangul Syllable Ssyang Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
썅
U+C345 "썅" Hangul Syllable Ssyang is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic sound "ssyang." It is formed by combining the initial consonant "ㅆ" (ssang shiot, a double s sound) with the vowel "ㅑ" (ya) and the final consonant "ㅇ" (ieung), which in this position is silent and merely completes the syllable block. As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, this character is used in written Korean to spell words and names, though it is notably recognized as a key component of a common Korean expletive, often appearing in informal or digital contexts to express strong emotion.
