U+D5DD "헝" Hangul Syllable Heong Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
헝
U+D5DD "헝" Hangul Syllable Heong is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul script, representing the phonetic sound "heong" (ㅎ + ㅓ + ㅇ). It is formed by combining the initial consonant "ㅎ" (hieut), the medial vowel "ㅓ" (eo), and the final consonant "ㅇ" (ieung), which in this position is silent or acts as a placeholder for a vowel-ending sound. As a part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, this character is used in written Korean, typically within native or Sino-Korean vocabulary, though it is not among the most common syllables. Its inclusion in the standard encoding ensures proper text representation and processing in digital systems for the Korean language.
