U+D001 "퀁" Hangul Syllable Kweonj Unicode Character
U+D001 "퀁" Hangul Syllable Kweonj is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul syllabary block, representing the Korean sound “kweonj,” which is formed by combining the initial consonant “ㅋ” (kieuk), the medial vowel “ㅝ” (weo), and the final consonant “ㄵ” (nieun-jieut). This specific syllable is one of thousands of possible syllabic blocks in the Korean writing system, encoded in Unicode to facilitate the digital representation of Korean text. In modern Korean, “퀁” is not a common word, as it generally does not appear in standard vocabulary, though it remains a valid and correctly formed Hangul syllable. Its inclusion in the standard ensures comprehensive coverage of the entire Hangul syllabary for writing historical or linguistic contexts, as well as for representing sounds in loanwords or dialectal speech.
