Unicode character block


Hangul Jamo (Korean: 한글 자모, Korean pronunciation: [ˈha̠ːnɡɯɭ t͡ɕa̠mo̞]) is a Unicode block containing positional (choseong, jungseong, and jongseong) forms of the Hangul consonant and vowel clusters. While the Hangul Syllables Unicode block contains precomposed syllables used in standard modern Korean, the Hangul Jamo block can be used to compose arbitrary syllables dynamically including those not included in the Hangul Syllables block.
