U+C70F "윏" Hangul Syllable Wilb Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
윏
U+C70F "윏" Hangul Syllable Wilb is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul script, used to write the Korean language. It represents the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "ㅇ" (a silent placeholder), the medial vowel "ㅟ" (pronounced like the 'wi' in 'wit'), and the final consonant "ㄼ" (a double consonant pronounced as 'lb' or sometimes 'lp' in final position). As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, it was encoded to facilitate digital text processing and display of Korean, ensuring that complex syllabic blocks like "윏" are represented as a single code point rather than requiring separate combination of individual jamo letters.
