Hangul Syllable Mwaej

It writes one spoken Korean syllable from three Hangul parts.

Those parts are jamo—Hangul letters combined into syllables—arranged as ㅁ + ㅙ + final ㅈ. The block records a syllable's sound, rather than naming an idea or a standalone word.

Hangul was made so Korean speech could be written directly, instead of relying on Chinese characters. Its creation was recorded in Hunminjeongeum in 1443, and an explanatory manuscript was published in 1446. In Hangul's early years, Buddhist publications used it; later, translations of Confucian texts—teachings about social order and government—supported the Joseon dynasty's rule in Korea. The 1996 Unicode date marks this block's computer encoding, not Hangul's origin.

How do I type 뫶 on a Korean keyboard?

On Dubeolsik, enter a-h-o-w in Korean input.

Dubeolsik is the common Korean two-set keyboard layout: a gives ㅁ, h+o builds ㅙ, and w adds final ㅈ. A Korean input method editor (IME) combines the ordered initial-consonant, vowel, and final-consonant parts into one block.

The precomposed block and 뫶 are canonically equivalent forms of the same text. Some fonts or apps may show the decomposed jamo separately if they do not shape it as a syllable. If your text workflow needs the one-block form, use Unicode NFC normalization, which recomposes the sequence into the block.
