Hangul Syllable Bweobs

4527/11172

붮 is a Hangul syllable block made from ㅂ, ㅝ, and ㅄ; “bweobs” names its parts, not a translation. Hangul was devised in 1443 as a sound-based way to write Korean; its guide, Hunminjeongeum, appeared in 1446.

Text symbol

What 붮 means

It is a Hangul syllable block, not a translation.

Its parts are ㅂ ㅝ ㅄ: an opening consonant, a vowel, and a final cluster; “bweobs” names that sequence.

Before Hangul, systems called Idu, Hyangchal, and Gugyeol used Chinese characters to write Korean; early books mixed both scripts. Hangul later became everyday writing in Korea. A debated theory links its design to Mongolian Phags-pa, not this block.

Why does 붮 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
