U+AD61 "굡" Hangul Syllable Gyob Unicode Character

U+AD61 "굡" Hangul Syllable Gyob is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean writing system, representing the sound "gyob" formed by the initial consonant "ㄱ" (g), the medial vowel "ㅛ" (yo), and the final consonant "ㅂ" (b). As part of the Hangul Syllables block, it was encoded in Unicode version 2.0 in 1996 to support the efficient representation of Korean text, allowing each syllable block to be expressed as a single character rather than a sequence of individual jamo components. While "굡" is a valid and standardized syllable, it is a rarely used or archaic form, not commonly found in everyday modern Korean vocabulary, and its primary significance lies in its role within the comprehensive Unicode system that ensures all possible combinations of Hangul jamo are available for historical, linguistic, and academic purposes.
