Unicode Version 17.0

U+C5B7 "얷" Hangul Syllable Eogs is a precomposed syllable block in the Hangul script used for writing the Korean language. It represents the phonetic sound "eogs," combining a leading initial consonant (in this case, the null initial or the consonant 'ㅇ'), the vowel 'ㅓ' (eo), and the final consonant 'ㄱ' (g) followed by the consonant 'ㅅ' (s) as a complex final cluster. As part of the larger Hangul Syllables Unicode block, "얷" is encoded as a single character for efficient text processing, though it is a relatively rare syllable in modern Korean vocabulary. Its inclusion ensures comprehensive coverage of theoretically possible syllable combinations in the Korean writing system.
