U+C855 "졕" Hangul Syllable Jyeg Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
졕
U+C855 "졕" Hangul Syllable Jyeg is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul script, used to write the Korean language. It represents the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "ㅈ" (j), the medial vowel "ㅖ" (ye), and the final consonant "ㄱ" (g), resulting in the sound "jyeg." This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible syllable blocks formed from the Korean alphabet according to the standard compositional rules of the script. While not common in everyday modern Korean text, it could theoretically appear in specialized vocabulary, transliterations, or older written forms, helping to ensure complete digital representation of the language's syllabic structure.
