Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᄜ has the Unicode code point U+111C. 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+111C to binary:
00010001 00011100
. 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 10000100 10011100

Description
U+111C, also known as Hangul Choeseong Mieum-Pieup, is a vital character in the Korean language's script, which consists of three primary components: Choeseong, Jeongseong, and Jongseong. In digital text, this specific character serves as the initial consonant in syllable blocks, playing a crucial role in forming native Korean words. Hangul, of which Mieum-Pieup is a part, is not only the official writing system for the Korean language but also an essential aspect of Korean culture and identity. Developed during the 15th century, Hangul was designed to promote literacy among the common people, making it accessible and easy to learn compared to other complex scripts at that time. Today, Mieum-Pieup, along with other Hangul characters, is widely used in digital communication, print media, and various forms of Korean text production.
