What 룑 means
It is a Hangul syllable block; its meaning comes from its word.
룑 is assembled from the Hangul letters ㄹ, ㅛ, and ㄵ, called jamo. Unicode breaks it into ᄅ ᅭ ᆬ: the initial consonant, vowel, and final two-consonant cluster. “Ryonj” is a generated label for that recipe, not a Korean word or translation.
Hangul, the Korean alphabet, was designed in 1443 and officially introduced in 1446. 룑 follows the script’s regular rule for joining an initial consonant, vowel, and final consonant into one block; it was not designed as a separate sign.
How do I type 룑?
Use a Korean IME or combine its jamo sequence.
With a Korean IME, enter ㄹ ㅛ ㄵ. If it leaves the parts separate, NFC normalization can join them: 룑 and precomposed 룑 are canonically equivalent, though software may store or display them differently.
A font shapes each Hangul block from its parts, so outlines can vary without changing the character.

Questions people ask
1Why might 룑 fail in older Korean software?
An older encoding may not include this block. As of 2026, legacy Korean mappings list 룑 in Johab and UHC, two older Korean encodings, but not KS X 1001; software limited to that coverage may fail to store or display it.
