Hangul syllable bbweo

Alone, 뿨 has no established Korean meaning as of 2026. In a Korean word, it contributes one syllable; the whole word carries the meaning.

King Sejong created Hangul in 1443 to write Korean more easily. The 1446 Hunminjeongeum, a book about the script, explains how consonants and vowels form blocks. In 뿨, ㅃ is the first consonant and ㅝ the vowel.

Buddhist texts appeared in Hangul's early years; Confucian works followed. Practical writing spread in the late 16th century; in 1894, Hangul became Korea's official writing system.
