U+3207 "" Parenthesized Hangul Ieung Unicode Character

Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+3207 "" Parenthesized Hangul Ieung is a CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) compatibility ideograph that represents the Korean letter "ㅇ" (ieung) enclosed in parentheses, primarily used within the CJK Compatibility block for compatibility with pre-existing East Asian character sets. This character was included in Unicode to support legacy text encodings, such as those used in older Korean or Japanese computing environments, where parenthesized Hangul letters were employed for labeling, indexing, or linguistic notation. As part of the compatibility set, its primary function is to preserve visual fidelity and semantics when converting documents from older systems, though it is rarely used in modern writing, where standard Hangul and parentheses are typed separately.
