Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ㅀ has the Unicode code point U+3140. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800to0xffff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 16 bits within the final 24 bits and that it will have the format:1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx
Where thexare the payload bits.UTF-8 Encoding bit layout by codepoint range Codepoint Range Bytes Bit pattern Payload length U+0000 - U+007F 1 0xxxxxxx 7 bits U+0080 - U+07FF 2 110xxxxx 10xxxxxx 11 bits U+0800 - U+FFFF 3 1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 16 bits U+10000 - U+10FFFF 4 11110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 21 bits Step 2: Obtain the payload bits:
Convert the hexadecimal code point U+3140 to binary:
00110001 01000000. Those are the payload bits.Step 3: Fill in the bits to match the bit pattern:
Obtain the final bytes by arranging the paylod bits to match the bit layout:
11100011 10000101 10000000

Description
The Unicode character U+3140, known as Hangul Letter Rieul-Hieuh (리움), is a fundamental component of the Korean alphabet, Hangul. This alphabetic script is widely used in digital text for both written and digital communication in South Korea and North Korea. In its role within Hangul, U+3140 serves as a consonant representing the aspirated "l" sound. The Rieul-Hieuh character's shape is derived from a combination of other Hangul characters, reflecting the unique characteristics of the Korean language and script. This character, along with others in the Hangul system, allows for an efficient and phonetic way to transcribe the Korean language, which has significantly impacted both the cultural and linguistic landscape of the Korean-speaking regions. In the realm of computing and information technology, U+3140 is encoded within the Unicode Standard, enabling its accurate representation and exchange across different platforms and devices.
