U+D66E "홮" Hangul Syllable Hwap is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean writing system, Hangul, specifically representing the sound "hwap" as a combination of the initial consonant ㅎ (h), the medial vowel ㅘ (wa), and the final consonant ㅍ (p). This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible syllabic combinations that conform to the standard Korean orthographic structure.
