Unicode Version 17.0
쥭
U+C96D "쥭" Hangul Syllable Jyug is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the sound "jyug" (pronounced roughly like "jyook" in English), formed from the initial consonant j (ㅈ), the medial vowel yu (ㅠ), and the final consonant g (ㄱ). As part of the Unicode Hangul Syllables block, it was encoded to support the efficient digital representation of Korean text, allowing this specific syllable to be rendered as a single character rather than a sequence of individual jamo components. This character is rarely used in contemporary Korean vocabulary but may appear in specialized or historical linguistic contexts.
