U+CB41 "쭁" Hangul Syllable Jjyong Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+CB41 "쭁" Hangul Syllable Jjyong is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul script, formed by combining the initial consonant "jj" (a tensed version of the Korean letter jieut, represented by the double consonant ㅉ), the vowel “yo” (ㅛ), and the final consonant “ng” (ㅇ). This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which was designed to encode all possible combinations of Korean initial consonants, vowels, and final consonants as single code points, enabling efficient text processing in digital environments. As a syllable with a tensed initial sound and a semivowel vowel, “쭁” is a legitimate though relatively rare construct in Korean orthography, primarily used in phonetic or stylistic contexts rather than as a common lexical item.
