Hangul syllable 퇑

One Korean syllable; the surrounding word supplies its meaning.

To type 퇑 with a Korean IME, enter ㅌ + ㅘ + ㅇ: opening consonant, vowel, closing consonant. Unicode normalization can also use canonical jamo, Hangul's component letters, for the same syllable; fonts may draw the block differently without changing its identity.

Hangul was created in 1443 and publicly introduced in 1446. Before the 15th century, Korean writing used Chinese characters and hybrid systems such as idu and hyangch'al, which adapted those characters for Korean. Hangul was designed for Korean speech and wider access to writing; in the modern period it became Korea's writing system and a marker of Korean identity.
