Unicode Version 17.0
웠
U+C6E0 "웠" Hangul Syllable Weoss is a precomposed syllable in the Hangul script, which is used to write the Korean language. It represents the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "ㅇ" (silent when at the start of a syllable), the medial vowel "ㅝ" (transcribed as "weo"), and the final consonant "ㅆ" (a double "s" sound), resulting in the sound "weoss." This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes syllables formed by combining individual jamo characters from the Korean alphabet, allowing for efficient textual representation of Korean without needing to dynamically compose each syllable from its components.
