Hangul syllable Byogg

It is a Hangul syllable; context gives it meaning.

The letters that make up 뵦 are ㅂ + ㅛ + ᆩ: an initial consonant, a vowel, and a final double-ㄱ component. These Hangul jamo, or letter components, fit together in one square syllable block. Unicode’s algorithmic label “BYOGG” names that structure, not a translation. On its own, this block is a syllable sample; its intended meaning depends on the Korean word or text where it appears.

A 1443 entry in the Annals of King Sejong records the script’s creation. The Hunminjeongeum, a book explaining the new letters and how they work, was published in 1446; it described their combinations and principles. The script was designed to represent Korean speech more directly than the Chinese-character conventions then in use and to make writing accessible to more people. Introduced at court, Hangul later became the everyday writing system for Korean.

How do I type 뵦?

A Korean input method can build it from three letter components.

Enter the initial consonant ㅂ, vowel ㅛ, and final double-ㄱ component; a Korean input method assembles them into one block. If it displays the parts separately, it is showing the syllable’s component representation.

Some Korean input methods and Unicode-aware text editors may show a modern Hangul syllable as one prebuilt block or as a sequence of joining letters. These are equivalent representations of the same syllable.

Why does 뵦 look different in different fonts?

The font reshapes the same letters inside the syllable block.

Hangul type design fits the initial consonant, vowel, and final consonant inside a square cell. Fonts can change their shape, size, and placement, changing the block’s appearance without changing which character it is. Compare the components, not just the outer silhouette.
