Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᅺ has the Unicode code point U+117A. 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+117A to binary:
00010001 01111010. 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 10111010

Description
U+117A, or HANGUL JUNGSEONG EO-O, is a crucial component of the Korean language's writing system. In digital text, it serves as a jungseong, which denotes consonant sounds in the Korean alphabet, Hangul. The character represents the consonant sound "eo" or "ø," which is pronounced like the English "y" in "year." As a vital element of Hangul, U+117A contributes to the phonetic and syllabic structure of Korean words, enabling accurate communication and expression in this widely spoken language. Furthermore, its use reflects the linguistic and cultural richness of Korea, where Hangul has played a pivotal role since its creation during the 15th century by King Sejong the Great. Today, U+117A continues to play an essential part in digital text representation for Korean language users around the world, owing to its significance in the Unicode Standard and the ongoing advancements in typography and computer technology.
