Unicode Version 17.0
쨘
U+CA18 "쨘" Hangul Syllable Jjyan is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the sound "jjyan". It is formed from the initial consonant ㅉ (a tense, double "j" sound), the medial vowel ㅑ (the "ya" sound), and the final consonant ㄴ ("n"). While not one of the most common syllables in standard Korean vocabulary, it appears in expressive or onomatopoeic words, such as "쨘" used to mimic a dramatic reveal or fanfare, similar to the English interjection "ta-da!" In the Unicode standard, it belongs to the Hangul Syllables block (AC00–D7AF), where thousands of such syllables are encoded algorithmically according to the modern Hangul orthography.
