Unicode Version 17.0

U+C943 "쥃" Hangul Syllable Jwelh is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul script used to write the Korean language, representing the phonetic sound "jwelh." It is formed by combining the initial consonant jieut (ㅈ) with the medial vowel we (ㅞ) and the final consonant rieul-hieuh (ㄼ), which together produce a syllable that does not correspond to a common modern Korean word or morpheme. This character belongs to the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible combinations of leading consonants, medial vowels, and trailing consonants in the Korean alphabet, and it is typically used in historical or linguistic contexts rather than everyday writing. Its inclusion ensures complete coverage of the 11,172 possible Hangul syllable forms, supporting accurate digital representation of Korean text.
