U+D687 "횇" Hangul Syllable Hwaec Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
횇
U+D687 "횇" Hangul Syllable Hwaec is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "ㅎ" (h), the medial vowel "ㅙ" (wae), and the final consonant "ㅊ" (c). As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, this character is encoded as a single codepoint to facilitate efficient text processing for the Korean language, where syllables are formed by stacking consonants and vowels into square blocks. While the syllable "횇" is theoretically valid in Korean phonology, it is a rare or nonstandard form, as the diphthong "ㅙ" typically appears in syllables without a final consonant in common usage, making this character largely unused in everyday modern Korean writing.
