웁 is one syllable block in Hangul, the Korean writing system, not a complete word with one fixed meaning. It usually forms part of a Korean word; alone, it can be a scene-specific sound.

Text symbol

What 웁 means

Context decides how a bare 웁 reads.

In one Korean online novel, available as of 2026, 웁 follows a character's retch as a written gagging sound. If someone sends 웁 alone, ask for context.

Hangul was created to make Korean easier to write. Its first record dates to 1443; its explanatory book Hunminjeongeum appeared in 1446. Hangul blocks join a starting consonant and vowel, sometimes an ending consonant.
