U+D64A "홊" Hangul Syllable Hobs Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+D64A "홊" Hangul Syllable Hobs is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing a specific combination of the initial consonant "ㅎ" (h), the medial vowel "ㅗ" (o), and the final consonant "ㅂ" (b). This character falls within the Hangul Syllables block of Unicode, which encodes all possible syllabic combinations of Korean jamo letters into single code points for efficient text processing. While the romanization "Hobs" reflects its phonetic structure, this particular syllable is extremely rare or unconventional in standard Korean vocabulary, as the final consonant cluster "bs" is not a typical native Korean syllable structure; it may appear in transliterations of foreign words or specialized linguistic contexts.
