U+FFA2 "ᄁ" Halfwidth Hangul Letter Ssangkiyeok Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+FFA2 "ᄁ" Halfwidth Hangul Letter Ssangkiyeok is a typographic variant of the fullwidth Hangul consonant character representing the doubled "giyeok" (ㄲ) sound, which is a tensed version of the "k" sound in Korean. This halfwidth form is half the visual width of its fullwidth counterpart, designed to fit compactly within legacy East Asian character grids or monospaced text environments, such as those used in older computing systems or terminal displays. It belongs to the Halfwidth and Fullwidth Forms Unicode block and is intended for use in contexts where space efficiency is critical, while still representing the same phonetic value as the standard Hangul character in Korean writing systems.
