hangul syllable soenj

Hangul syllable Soenj

5606/11172

쇥 is a Hangul syllable block; its role and meaning come from the Korean word around it. Unicode’s Latin-script label is “soenj.” Hangul was devised in 1443 to make Korean easier to write; an explanatory text appeared in 1446. Decomposed jamo may render separately.

Text symbol

What 쇥 means

It represents a syllable; its Korean word supplies meaning.

Read 쇥 in its Korean word or phrase; alone, it does not identify the word.

Why can 쇥 appear as separate pieces?

The same spelling can appear as a block or as jamo.

Jamo are Hangul’s component letters. 쇥 canonically decomposes into ᄉ ᅬ ᆬ; weak text shaping can leave them separate.

Why does 쇥 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
