Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+AD1E "" Hangul Syllable Gwaenh is a specific precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "ㄱ" (g), the medial vowel "ㅙ" (wae), and the final consonant "ㄶ" (nh). This syllable is part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, which encodes all possible 11,172 logically arranged syllables of the Korean alphabet. While "괞" is a valid and correctly formed syllable, it is considered extremely rare or even unused in standard modern Korean vocabulary, as the "wae-nh" sound combination does not appear in typical spoken or written Korean words. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard ensures that every theoretically possible Hangul syllable has a dedicated code point, allowing consistent textual representation and processing.
