U+C6ED "웭" Hangul Syllable Wenj Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+C6ED "웭" Hangul Syllable Wenj is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul writing system used for the Korean language, formed by combining the initial consonant "ㅇ" (which is silent when initial), the vowel "ㅔ" (e), and the final consonant "ㄵ" (nj). This syllable represents the phonetic sound "wenj" and is one of thousands of such precomposed characters in the Unicode Hangul Syllables block, which were encoded to facilitate the efficient digital representation of the Korean alphabet by mapping each complete syllable to a single code point, rather than requiring separate encoding for individual jamo components.
