U+D08D "킍" Hangul Syllable Kyinj Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+D08D "킍" Hangul Syllable Kyinj is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul (Korean alphabet) block, representing the phonetic sound "kyinj" as a single encoded character. It is formed from the initial consonant ᄏ (kieuk, an aspirated k sound), the medial vowel ᅵ (i, an i sound) followed by ᆫ (nieun, an n sound), and the final consonant ᆽ (cieuc, a j sound), combining to create a syllable that standard modern Korean does not typically use in common vocabulary, but instead serves to cover the complete theoretical set of possible Hangul syllable forms in the Unicode standard. This character is part of the Hangul Syllables range (AC00–D7AF), which encodes syllables in the standard South Korean collation order, and it is primarily of interest to Unicode researchers, typographers, and linguists for its role in ensuring comprehensive representation of the Korean writing system rather than for widespread practical use in text.
