U+D7BA "ힺ" Hangul Jungseong Eu-Eo Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+D7BA "ힺ" Hangul Jungseong Eu-Eo is a modern, unused syllable block in the Hangul writing system, representing the sound combination of the medial vowel "eu" (ㅡ) and "eo" (ㅓ) in sequence, forming a diphthong. This character is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes precomposed syllables for the Korean alphabet, but "Eu-Eo" is not a standard or commonly employed vowel combination in contemporary Korean orthography, making this code point essentially a historical artifact or a placeholder for theoretical syllable construction. It appears in the Unicode standard primarily for completeness, as the encoding system allows for all possible combinations of initial consonants, medial vowels, and final consonants within the Hangul syllabic structure.
