Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ㅝ has the Unicode code point U+315D. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
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 thex
are 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+315D to binary:
00110001 01011101
. 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 10011101
HANGUL LETTER WEO·U+315D

Description
U+315D, known as Hangul Letter Weo, is a unique character in the Korean language's alphabet system, Hangul. In the digital text realm, it serves as an integral part of this phonetic script, contributing to the formation of various syllables and words. Unlike most Latin-based scripts that use a combination of letters and spaces to denote syllables, Hangul leverages a series of simple geometric components called jamo, where U+315D is one such component. Weo specifically represents a secondary consonant sound in the Korean language, contributing to the articulation of various syllables when combined with other jamo. It forms an essential part of the linguistic fabric of Korean text, enabling the precise and accurate representation of spoken language through written form.
