hangul syllable peun

Hangul Syllable Peun

10505/11172

By itself, 픈 is not a Korean word with one fixed meaning; it is the Hangul syllable “peun,” and the surrounding word supplies the meaning. You meet it inside forms such as 아픈, 바쁜, and 예쁜, where it helps an adjective modify a following noun. It is built from ㅍ, ㅡ, and ㄴ, so a Korean IME assembles it from those parts.

Text symbol

What 픈 means

It has no standalone meaning; the surrounding Korean word supplies it.

In forms such as 예쁜 꽃 (“pretty flower”), 픈 is the final syllable of an adjective form placed before a noun. The same pattern appears in 바쁜 and 아픈. Translate the complete Korean word rather than this block alone.

How did 픈 come to exist?

It follows Hangul's documented syllable-building system.

Hangul was created to write Korean speech. The 1446 Hunminjeongeum Haerye documents how initial consonants, vowels, and final consonants combine into syllable blocks.

As of 2026-09-17, 픈 has no recorded first use separate from that system. Its identity is structural: ㅍ is the initial, ㅡ the medial vowel, and ㄴ the final consonant, built like every other modern Hangul syllable.

How do you type 픈?

Enter ㅍ, ㅡ, then ㄴ in a Korean IME.

The IME composes those keystrokes into one block. Copy it from the palette above if Korean input is not enabled.

Is 픈 an emoji?

No. It is a Korean text syllable, not an emoji reaction; read the Korean word around it.

Can a different font change what 픈 means?

No. Hangul typefaces can reposition or resize the component letters inside the block, changing its look without changing the character or its reading.

Why is 픈 a box on my screen?

fsymbols draws rare signs with its own fonts, so they show here even where your device has none. An app or website without such a font shows an empty box (□) or a question mark instead. Turn our fonts off to see each sign as your device draws it by itself: a box here means a box in your chats and documents too.
