U+FFD6 "ￖ" Halfwidth Hangul Letter Wi Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+FFD6 "ￖ" Halfwidth Hangul Letter Wi is a typographic variant of the fullwidth Hangul syllable "위" (wi), designed to occupy exactly half the width of a standard CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) character cell, making it one of the halfwidth Hangul letters in the Halfwidth and Fullwidth Forms block. It is used primarily in legacy East Asian text systems or monospaced environments where mixing fullwidth and halfwidth characters is necessary for alignment or data processing purposes, such as in certain terminal displays or telecommunication protocols. The character represents the Korean vowel sound "wi" and is encoded as a single halfwidth glyph to facilitate compatibility with older character encoding standards or specific formatting constraints.
