Unicode Version 17.0
첝
U+CC9D "첝" Hangul Syllable Ceonj is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean writing system, representing the sound "ceonj" (initial consonant ㅊ, medial vowel ㅓ, and final consonant ㄵ). It falls within the Hangul Syllables block (U+AC00 to U+D7AF), which encodes each possible syllable of the Korean alphabet as a single, self-contained character for efficient text processing. Although this specific syllable is rare in everyday Korean vocabulary, its inclusion in Unicode ensures that the full range of theoretically valid Hangul syllables are available for linguistic, historical, or computational use, reflecting the systematic nature of the Korean writing system.
