Unicode Version 17.0
킁
U+D081 "킁" Hangul Syllable Keung is a precomposed syllable in the Korean Hangul script, representing the phonetic sound "keung." It is formed by combining the initial consonant "ㅋ" (kieuk), the medial vowel "ㅡ" (eu), and the final consonant "ㅇ" (ieung) as a batchim, resulting in a single block character. This syllable is not commonly used in modern standard Korean vocabulary but can appear in certain onomatopoeic words, transliterations, or less frequent linguistic contexts. As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, it follows the systematic grouping of Korean syllables based on the Jamo components, allowing for efficient text representation in digital environments.
