Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+B04B "" Hangul Syllable Ggeud is a precomposed syllable from the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic sound "ggeud." It is formed by combining the initial consonant "ㄲ" (a tense "kk" sound), the vowel "ㅡ" (the vowel "eu"), and the final consonant "ㄷ" (the consonant "d"). As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, this character exists primarily for text processing and digital typography, allowing Korean text to be displayed and manipulated as a single encoded unit rather than requiring explicit composition from individual jamo components. Although its actual frequency in everyday Korean writing is very low, it demonstrates how Unicode systematically encodes the entire set of possible Hangul syllables to ensure comprehensive support for the Korean language.
