U+C457 "쑗" Hangul Syllable Ssyolh Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
쑗
U+C457 "쑗" Hangul Syllable Ssyolh is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul syllabary used for writing the Korean language. It represents the sound "ssyolh," formed by combining the initial consonant "쑤" (ssyu) with a final consonant "ㄹ" (l) that is pronounced as a liquid or lateral sound, though it is a relatively rare syllable in contemporary Korean text. This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which systematically encodes all possible syllable combinations of the Korean writing system, and it allows for precise digital representation of Korean text without needing to decompose syllables into their individual jamo components.
