Hangul Syllable Twap

It writes a Korean syllable; the word around it supplies meaning.

The block is made from three Hangul letters, or jamo: initial ㅌ, middle vowel ㅘ, and final consonant ㅍ. As of 2026, no standalone word meaning is established for 퇖; read it within the Korean word around it.

The earliest surviving official record, the royal chronicle Sejong Sillok (세종실록), notes Hangul's 28 new letters in late 1443. Hunminjeongeum (훈민정음), the book explaining the new script, followed in 1446. Korean writing relied on Chinese characters and adaptations such as Idu (이두), Hyangchal (향찰), and Gugyeol (구결), which used those characters to record Korean words and grammar. Hangul later appeared in scriptures, practical works, letters, and literature, while official documents stayed mostly in Chinese characters. Korea adopted Hangul as its national writing system in 1894.

How do I type 퇖 on a Korean keyboard?

Enter its jamo in a Korean input method.

On the standard Dubeolsik two-set QWERTY layout, type xhkv: x enters ㅌ, h and k enter ㅗ and ㅏ to form ㅘ, and v enters final ㅍ. The input method editor (IME) composes them into 퇖.

If the letters stay separate, the input method has not composed the syllable block, or the app is preserving decomposed text. The component sequence is still the same.

Why can 퇖 look different in another font?

Different fonts can draw the same Hangul character differently.

Font designers vary the proportions and spacing inside the block, so 퇖 can look wider, tighter, or differently balanced in one font than another. Unicode's reference glyph is not a required drawing. When comparing screenshots, check the text character as well as its outline.
