U+CB9F "쮟" Hangul Syllable Jjwigs Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+CB9F "쮟" Hangul Syllable Jjwigs is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the sound "jjwig" with a tense initial consonant, a high front vowel glide, and a final velar stop. It falls within the Hangul Syllables block, which encodes all possible consonant-vowel-final combinations systematically. This particular syllable, though extremely rare in actual Korean usage, reflects the structural logic of the script where components such as the initial "jj" (a double consonant), the medial "wi" diphthong, and the final "gs" consonant cluster combine to form a single character. Its inclusion ensures complete coverage of the theoretical inventory of 11,172 possible Hangul syllables as defined in the Unicode Standard.
