What 붖 means

Read 붖 as one syllable in Korean spelling. Its initial jamo (a Hangul letter component) ᄇ, vowel jamo ᅮ, and final jamo ᆽ join in that order. The block is a spelling unit; a surrounding Korean word supplies the meaning.

Hangul was designed to represent Korean speech by combining consonants and vowels into syllables. The script’s first record appears in the Sejong Sillok, a record of King Sejong’s reign, in 1443; the Hunminjeongeum book, published in 1446, explains why the letters were created and how they form syllables.

Type 붖 as one Hangul syllable block

A Korean IME (input method) composes 붖 when you enter ㅂ, ㅜ, then final ㅈ in order.

Unicode can represent the same syllable as the precomposed block 붖 or as conjoining jamo (letters designed to join into syllables), ᄇ + ᅮ + ᆽ. Normalization can convert between these forms; software may store either representation, while fonts shape the visible result.

Why does 붖 look different in different fonts?

Hangul typefaces vary in stroke design and spacing. That changes how the character is drawn, not its identity.
