U+C737 "윷" Hangul Syllable Yuc Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
윷
U+C737 "윷" Hangul Syllable Yuc is a precomposed syllable in the Hangul writing system, representing the Korean sound "yuc" as it appears in modern Korean orthography. It is formed from the initial consonant ㅇ (silent placeholder "ieung"), the vowel ㅠ (yu), and the final consonant ㅊ (chieut), together producing the syllable 윷. This character is notable in Korean culture as the name of the traditional game Yutnori, where "yut" refers to the four wooden sticks used in play, and it is also used in the word "yutgari" (a traditional woven pattern). In Unicode, it is part of the Hangul Syllables block (U+AC00 to U+D7AF), a range that contains all precomposed modern Hangul syllables.
