Unicode Version 17.0
웡
U+C6E1 "웡" Hangul Syllable Weong is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul script used for writing the Korean language. It represents the phonetic syllable "weong," which is formed by combining the initial consonant ㅇ (ieung), the medial vowel ㅝ (weo), and the final consonant ㅇ (ieung) again. In standard Korean orthography, this syllable is relatively uncommon and appears in limited contexts, primarily within transliterations or specialized vocabulary. As a precomposed character in the Unicode Hangul Syllables block, it enables efficient text processing and display by encoding the entire syllable as a single code point rather than requiring a sequence of individual jamo characters.
