U+D7B5 "ힵ" Hangul Jungseong U-Yeo Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ힵ
U+D7B5 "ힵ" Hangul Jungseong U-Yeo is a Korean Hangul syllable that represents a specific vowel sound, the "U-Yeo" (ㅢ) diphthong combination, utilized in the modern Korean writing system. This character falls within the Hangul Syllables block of Unicode, which encodes precomposed syllables formed from initial consonants, medial vowels, and final consonants. "ힵ" combines the consonant "ㅎ" (h) with the medial vowel "ㅢ" (ui) and the final consonant "ㅂ" (b), resulting in the phonetic value of "huib" or "hŭib" depending on romanization conventions. It is used in written Korean to represent a valid, though potentially rare, syllable in the language, and its inclusion in Unicode ensures proper digital text representation across platforms.
