Hangul Syllable Hweolm

Use a Korean 2-set keyboard and type gnjfa.

On a standard QWERTY layout, g types ㅎ, n then j form ㅝ, and f then a form the final cluster ㄻ. The Korean Jamo combine into 훪 as you type; an English-only input layout produces Latin letters instead.

What does 훪 mean?

As of 2026, 훪 has no established standalone word or message meaning.

훪 follows Hangul’s syllable-building rule: the initial consonant ㅎ, vowel ㅝ, and final consonant cluster ㄻ form one block. Its role and meaning come from the Korean word it belongs to.

A record from 1443 and an explanatory text from 1446 anchor Hangul’s early history. The latter describes a script made for Korean speakers who found Chinese characters difficult to use for writing Korean. The earliest surviving Hangul inscription is dated 1536.

Why can 훪 look the same but compare differently?

A precomposed Hangul block and its Jamo sequence can look identical.

Unicode can normalize an equivalent sequence of Hangul letters into a precomposed block, while some code-aware tools still distinguish the underlying sequences. NFC is Unicode’s composed normalization form; use it when an exact single-character match matters.
