Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+1101 "" Hangul Choseong Ssangkiyeok is a Jamo character used in the Korean writing system, representing the doubled initial consonant sound of "kk," as in the English "sk" sound but tense and without aspiration. This character is part of the Hangul Jamo block in Unicode, specifically serving as a leading (choseong) consonant that modifies the syllable's pronunciation when combined with a vowel in Hangul script. Historically derived from the single consonant "ㄱ" (Giyeok), the doubled form indicates a fortis or tensed articulation, critical for distinguishing meaning in Korean words where such phonetic contrasts exist.
