Source: Browser Default
U+C679 "왹" Hangul Syllable Oeg is a precomposed syllable from the modern Hangul system used to write the Korean language, representing the phonetic combination of the initial consonant "ㅇ" (a placeholder that indicates no initial consonant sound), the medial vowel "ㅚ" (the diphthong "oe" pronounced like the "we" in "wet" or "whey"), and the final consonant "ㄱ" (the velar stop "g/k"). This specific syllable, while not common in everyday Korean vocabulary, is a valid character in the Unicode Hangul Syllables block, which encodes all possible combinations of Korean initial, medial, and final jamo sounds, and it can be used in specialized or historical contexts as well as in phonetic transcription.
