Unicode Version 17.0

U+C4CA "쓊" Hangul Syllable Sswibs is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean writing system, representing the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "ㅆ" (ss), the medial vowel "ㅟ" (wi), and the final consonant "ㅂ" (b), resulting in the sound "sswib" with the tense initial and a short, stopped final consonant. As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, this character is encoded as a single code point for efficient text processing and display, rather than being composed from individual jamo components.
