Unicode Version 17.0

U+C614 "옔" Hangul Syllable Yels is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic sound "yels." It is formed by combining the initial consonant ㅇ (a placeholder that results in a null initial sound), the medial vowel ㅖ (ye), and the final consonant ㄹ (l) followed by the additional final consonant ㅅ (t, as pronounced in syllable-final position). This specific syllable, like all Hangul syllables in Unicode, was encoded to support digital text representation and processing for the Korean language, appearing in contexts such as historical or literary texts where such a syllable is used, though it is relatively rare in modern everyday Korean vocabulary.
