Unicode Version 17.0
좜
U+C89C "좜" Hangul Syllable Jwam is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul writing system. It is formed from the initial consonant ㅈ (jieut, representing the sound j), the medial vowel ㅘ (wa, a diphthong combining o and a), and the final consonant ㅁ (mieum, representing m), together producing the phonetic value of "jwam." As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, this character is used primarily in written Korean to represent a specific syllabic block, enabling efficient text encoding without requiring separate composition of its individual jamo components.
