Unicode Version 17.0

U+C70B "윋" Hangul Syllable Wid is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul script, formed by combining the initial consonant "ㅇ" (ieung, which in initial position is silent), the medial vowel "ㅟ" (wi), and the final consonant "ㄷ" (digeut). As part of the Hangul Syllables block, this character represents a specific phonetic unit in the Korean language, though it is rarely used in contemporary standard Korean vocabulary and is more often encountered in historical texts, linguistic studies, or as part of syllable combinations in less common words. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures that all possible combinations of Hangul jamo (letters) are represented digitally, preserving the complete writing system for academic and technical purposes.
