Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᅟ has the Unicode code point U+115F. 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+115F to binary:
00010001 01011111. 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:
11100001 10000101 10011111

Description
The Unicode character U+115F, HANGUL CHOSEONG FILLER, plays a crucial role in the Korean language system. It is part of the Hangul script, which is used to represent the Korean language. In digital text, this character serves as a filler or placeholder for certain positions within Hangul syllable blocks, where no other consonant (Choseong) is needed. This functionality aids in maintaining consistency and coherence in digital text representation of the Korean language, particularly when used in conjunction with Jamo characters that represent vowels and semi-consonants. Although it may not be visible or recognizable to non-Korean speakers, the HANGUL CHOSEONG FILLER contributes significantly to the proper formatting and representation of text within digital platforms and software designed for the Korean language.
