U+AF48 "" Hangul Syllable Ggwa is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean writing system Hangul, representing the sound "ggwa" with a tense initial consonant. It is formed by combining the initial consonant letter ᄁ (ssang giyeok, a doubled form of the basic 'g' sound) with the medial vowel letter ᆉ (wa, a diphthong combining the vowels 'o' and 'a'), resulting in a single encoded character within the Hangul Syllables block of Unicode. This character is used in standard Korean text to write words that contain this particular syllable, such as in the verb 꽈배기 (ggwabaegi), which refers to a twisted Korean pastry, and it follows the typical phonetic and structural rules of Hangul syllable composition by occupying a full square block when displayed.
