Hangul syllable Keuj

9347/11172

킂 is a Hangul syllable block with no standalone translation. Its jamo—individual Hangul letters—are ㅋ, ㅡ, and ㅈ; Unicode’s generated label “keuj” names those parts. Hangul was designed to write Korean.

Text symbol

What 킂 means

It is a Hangul syllable formed from three letters. In 킂, ㅋ begins the syllable, ㅡ is its vowel, and ㅈ closes it. Unicode’s generated label “keuj” names these jamo; it is not a Korean word or translation. A word’s meaning comes from context.

Hangul was developed between 1443 and 1446 to write Korean speech; the 1446 Hunminjeongeum document introduced the script. Older Korean spelling used additional jamo; these conjoining jamo are encoded as separate letters that fonts join into a syllable block. A 1933 proposal to unify Korean spelling helped shape the modern standard.

Why does 킂 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.
