Hangul syllable Ggwej

It is a Korean spelling block, with no standalone word meaning.

Hangul writes each Korean syllable as a compact block. In 뀆, the initial consonant ㄲ, the vowel ㅞ, and the final consonant ㅈ are its parts. Their spelling roles do not, by themselves, make a word.

Hangul was designed in the 15th century to make Korean easier to write than with Chinese characters. A 1443 record announces its 28-letter system; a 1446 explanatory book describes its purpose and how it works. The script spread through Buddhist and Confucian books, practical publications, letters, and everyday labels. It became Korea's official national writing system in 1894 and lost that status under Japanese rule in 1910. Earlier Korean systems called Idu, Gugyeol, and Hyangchal also used Chinese-borrowed characters for Korean; that is a historical link, not visual ancestry. These dates describe Hangul, not this exact block.

How do I type 뀆?

Use a Korean input method to combine ㄲ + ㅞ + ㅈ.

A Korean IME joins the initial, vowel, and final jamo into one syllable block as you type. If your editor supports hexadecimal Unicode entry, use B006; the shortcut depends on the operating system.
