What 공 means
Use its neighbors or digits. Korean dictionaries list 공 for ball, zero or null, public affairs, and contribution. For 0 in 011 or 007, 공 and 영 are both accepted readings. A lone 공 needs context.
How is 공 built?
It is a Hangul block. Hangul, the Korean writing system, was created in 1443 to represent Korean speech and introduced in 1446 for ordinary readers. Its letters combine into syllable blocks; Unicode decomposes 공 into ᄀ ᅩ ᆼ: initial consonant, vowel, final consonant.
Neutral alone; nearby words set the tone.
Do not guess “ball” or “zero” from 공 alone.
