U+D0BB "킻" Hangul Syllable Kic Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+D0BB "킻" Hangul Syllable Kic is a precomposed Hangul syllable representing the Korean sound "kic," formed by combining the initial consonant "ㅋ" (kieuk) with the vowel "ㅣ" (i) and the final consonant "ㅊ" (chieut) to complete the syllable block. As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, it was encoded to support the efficient representation of modern Korean text, where each syllable is assigned a unique code point rather than being dynamically composed from individual jamo characters. This specific syllable is used in written Korean to denote the phonetic value associated with that consonant vowel consonant combination, though it is not among the most frequently used syllables in everyday Korean vocabulary.
