U+D5B9 "햹" Hangul Syllable Hyaelt Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+D5B9 "햹" Hangul Syllable Hyaelt is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, formed by combining the initial consonant ㅎ (hieut) with the vowel ㅒ (yae) and the final consonant ㄹ (rieul). As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, it represents a single, indivisible character used in written Korean to denote a specific phonetic sound, though in practice, "햹" is an extremely rare or obsolete syllable that does not appear in common modern Korean vocabulary, making it largely a typographical artifact within the Unicode standard.
