U+C729 "윩" Hangul Syllable Yulg Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+C729 "윩" Hangul Syllable Yulg is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul script, representing the phonetic sound "yulg." This character is formed by combining the initial consonant ㅇ (ieung), the medial vowel ㅠ (yu), and the final consonant ㄹ (rieul), though in standard Korean phonology it is pronounced more closely as "yuk" due to a common vowel shift and final consonant assimilation. It is rarely used as a standalone word but may appear in specialized or archaic contexts, such as in the character name of the Chinese philosophical text the Yijing (周易, pronounced "주역" in Korean, but sometimes romanized historically with "yulg").
