U+D05E "큞" Hangul Syllable Kyulp Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+D05E "큞" Hangul Syllable Kyulp is a precomposed syllable in the Hangul script used for writing Korean, representing the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "ky" (ㅋ with a palatalized glide), the vowel "u" (ㅜ), and the final consonant "lp" (ㄹ and ㅂ in sequence). This specific glyph is part of the Hangul Syllables block, which encodes complete syllabic forms to facilitate text processing and rendering in digital environments, and it reflects the systematic structure of the Korean writing system where individual jamo characters are combined into block-shaped syllables. While "큞" itself is a valid syllable in the Hangul inventory, it is extremely rare in modern Korean vocabulary, appearing primarily in technical or linguistic contexts, such as representing an archaic or dialectal sound rather than a common word.
