U+C367 "썧" Hangul Syllable Ssyaeh Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+C367 "썧" Hangul Syllable Ssyaeh is a precomposed Hangul syllable representing a specific phonetic unit in the Korean writing system. It is formed by combining the initial consonant Ssang Ss or a double s sound, the vowel Yae, and the final consonant Hieuh, which together create the syllable pronounced roughly as ssyaeh. As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, this character was introduced to support the efficient encoding of modern and historical Korean text, allowing for the representation of complex syllable blocks as single code points. While not a commonly used syllable in contemporary Korean, it demonstrates the systematic structure of Hangul, where characters are composed by stacking initial consonants, vowels, and optional final consonants into square blocks, and its inclusion ensures full coverage for linguistic or typographic applications.
