Hangul Syllable Kwaelg

9110/11172

On a Korean keyboard using the 2-set layout, enter ㅋ ㅙ ㄺ (zhofr) in a Hangul input method to make 쾕. This Hangul block is one syllable built from three Korean letters; the surrounding word or phrase supplies its meaning. Unicode can also store those letters separately.

Text symbol

What 쾕 means

Use the Korean 2-set layout: ㅋ ㅙ ㄺ.

In a Korean IME (input method), QWERTY input zhofr gives ㅋ ㅙ ㄺ: z makes ㅋ, h o makes ㅙ, and f r makes final ㄺ. The IME combines them into one block.

What does 쾕 mean in Korean?

It is one Korean syllable; its word supplies the meaning.

쾕 combines initial ㅋ, vowel ㅙ, and final consonant cluster ㄺ. Those parts describe how the syllable is written, not a word-level definition. The surrounding Korean word or phrase supplies that meaning.

Hangul was announced in 1443; its explanatory book, Hunminjeongeum, followed in 1446. The book set out a system for writing Korean with initial, medial, and final parts that form syllable blocks.

Why does 쾕 split into jamo?

Unicode stores it as one block or separate letters.

Unicode represents the same modern Hangul syllable either as a precomposed block or as a sequence of initial, vowel, and final letters. A supporting font can display the separated sequence together; if it stays split, the representation or font handling differs, not the syllable's meaning.

Neutral in Korean text; alone, it gives a syllable without the surrounding word-level meaning.

If you mean a Korean word, send the whole word or phrase.

Can NFC rejoin separated Hangul letters?

Yes. NFC is Unicode normalization that composes equivalent text; for modern Hangul, it can turn the separated letters into the precomposed syllable. A Hangul-capable font still controls how it displays.
