Unicode Version 17.0
쐎
U+C40E "쐎" Hangul Syllable Sswap is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean writing system, representing the phonetic combination of the initial consonant “ㅆ” (ssang shiot, a double s sound) and the vowel “ㅘ” (wa) followed by the final consonant “ㅍ” (pieup, a p sound). This character falls within the Hangul Syllables block of Unicode, which encodes all possible syllable blocks formed from the Korean alphabet under the modern standard syllabary. As a precomposed form, it allows for efficient text storage and rendering by providing a single code point for the entire syllable rather than requiring separate code points for each jamo component.
