Hangul syllable 쾤

9125/11172

쾤 is a Hangul syllable, a block in Korea’s writing system, built from ㅋ ㅙ ㅋ. In a Korean word, it supplies a sound; alone, it needs context. Hangul was designed to make Korean writing more accessible; the first record of its creation dates to 1443, and the 1446 훈민정음 manuscript (“Correct Sounds for the Instruction of the People”) explains the script’s design.

Text symbol

What 쾤 means

It is a syllable in Korean writing, not a complete message.

Its component letters are ㅋ, ㅙ, and ㅋ; these letters are called jamo. Fonts can arrange and draw the strokes differently without changing the encoded character.

Hangul was designed to make writing Korean more accessible than the Chinese-character writing used before it. After a reform in 1894, it was commonly called 국문 (“national writing”) or 국서 (“national script”); by 1928, 한글 had become the widely used name.

A neutral Korean syllable; its role comes from the word around it.

Alone, it gives too little to read as a message; ask what word was intended.

Why does 쾤 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.
