U+D0BA "킺" Hangul Syllable Kij Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+D0BA "킺" Hangul Syllable Kij is a precomposed syllable in the modern Hangul script, which is the native alphabet of the Korean language. This specific syllable is formed by combining the initial consonant "키읔" (ki-euk, representing the 'k' sound), the vowel "ㅣ" (i, representing the 'ee' sound), and the final consonant "ㅈ" (j, representing the 'j' sound), resulting in the phonetic value "kij." As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, it represents a complete, indivisible syllable typically used in written Korean, though it is a relatively rare syllable that does not correspond to a common Korean word. Its encoding allows for consistent digital representation and text processing across different systems and platforms.
