U+C5F1 "엱" Hangul Syllable Yeonj is a precomposed Hangul syllable that represents the sound "yeonj" and is a less frequently used character in modern Korean, formed by combining the initial consonant "ㅇ" (silent in initial position), the medial vowel "ㅕ" (yeo), and the final consonant "ㅈ" (j). It belongs to the Unicode block Hangul Syllables, which encodes all possible combinations of modern Hangul letters in a systematic, two-byte range.
