Hangul syllable rwig

In context, 뤽 is one syllable within a Korean word or name. In 뤽 베송, the Korean spelling of Luc Besson’s name, 뤽 is the first syllable; the rest identifies the person. The block alone does not tell you which larger word or name it belongs to.

뤽 is built from the initial letter ㄹ, vowel ㅟ, and final letter ㄱ. Hangul was designed as a writing system suited to Korean speech, rather than relying on Chinese characters. The script’s earliest documented reference is dated to lunar December 1443; Hunminjeongeum Haerye, an explanatory book about the script, was published in 1446. Hangul became an official national writing system in 1894.

How do you type and display 뤽?

With Korean input enabled, enter ㄹ, then ㅜ, ㅣ, and ㄱ. The input method combines ㅜ and ㅣ into ㅟ, then joins the three parts into 뤽.

Digital text can hold the syllable as one character or as a sequence of jamo (Hangul letters). If ㄹㅟㄱ appears as separate letters, the text may be stored as that sequence or the app may not shape it into a syllable block.
