Unicode Version 17.0

U+C425 "쐥" Hangul Syllable Sswaeng is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonological combination of the initial consonant "쌍시옷" (ssang shiot, a double 's' sound), the medial vowel "ㅙ" (wae), and the final consonant "ㅇ" (ieung), which functions as a final consonant here to produce an 'ng' sound. This syllable does not commonly appear in everyday standard Korean vocabulary, but it may be encountered in certain dialects, technical transcriptions, or as a rare but valid character in the Hangul Syllables Unicode block (AC00-D7AF). Its formation follows the standard rules of Hangul character composition, where initial, medial, and final components are stacked and arranged within a single square block.
