U+C739 "윹" Hangul Syllable Yut Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
윹
U+C739 "윹" Hangul Syllable Yut is a specific precomposed syllable in the modern Korean writing system, representing the phonetic sound "yut." It is formed by combining the initial consonant "ㅇ" (a silent placeholder for a vowel-initial syllable), the medial vowel "ㅠ" (which sounds like "yu"), and the final consonant "ㅎ" (h), and it is categorized under the Hangul Syllables block. While this character is a valid part of the Unicode standard, it is rarely used in contemporary Korean text, as its primary recognition comes from its connection to the traditional name of a popular board game, Yut Nori.
