Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ㅠ has the Unicode code point U+3160. 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+3160 to binary:
00110001 01100000. 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 10100000

Description
U+3160, also known as Hangul Letter Yu, is a significant character in the Korean language, specifically within the context of the Hangul script. In digital text, it serves as one of the 24 consonants that constitute the phonetic core of the Hangul writing system. The Hangul script was developed during the late 15th century by King Sejong the Great's government in Korea with the aim of promoting literacy among the common people. Hangul Letter Yu represents a voiced palatal plosive, /j/, and is used to convey this particular sound when it appears in Korean words. Although this character might not be widely recognized outside the Korean language context, its presence and importance within the Hangul script contribute significantly to the richness and diversity of global typography.
