U+CF74 "콴" Hangul Syllable Kwan Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
콴
U+CF74 "콴" Hangul Syllable Kwan is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul script, representing the phonetic value "kwan." It is formed by combining the initial consonant "ㅋ" (kieuk) with the medial vowel "ㅘ" (wa) and the final consonant "ㄴ" (nieun), though as a single encoded character it simplifies text processing and storage in digital systems. This syllable is part of the Hangul Syllables block within Unicode, which contains over 11,000 precomposed syllables to support the writing of the Korean language. In practical usage, "콴" can appear in Korean vocabulary as a component of words or proper nouns, though it is less common than syllables like "관" (gwan), as it uses the aspirated "ㅋ" sound.
