Parenthesized Hangul Kiyeok
Another character from this parenthesized Hangul consonant series; it represents ᄀ, while ㈄ represents ᄆ.
Hangul Choseong Mieum
Under Unicode compatibility normalization (NFKC), ㈄ becomes (ᄆ): ordinary parentheses around ᄆ, the Hangul consonant form used at a syllable’s start. The three-character result differs from the original single glyph.
Questions people ask
1Why does ㈄ 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.
