U+CC0E "찎" Hangul Syllable Jjigg Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+CC0E "찎" Hangul Syllable Jjigg is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic combination of the initial consonant jj (ㅉ, a tense sound similar to the "jj" in "jjigae"), the vowel "i" (ㅣ), and the final consonant "gg" (ㄱ, with tensing). This character falls within the Hangul Syllables block (U+AC00 to U+D7AF), which encodes all possible syllabic blocks formed from the 24 basic jamo characters of the Korean alphabet. In practice, "찎" is a rare syllable in contemporary Korean vocabulary, primarily used in specialized, dialectal, or onomatopoeic contexts, such as mimicking sounds or representing specific verb forms, rather than in common speech or writing.
