Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᅫ has the Unicode code point U+116B. 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+116B to binary:
00010001 01101011. 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 10101011

Description
The character U+116B, HANGUL JUNGSEONG WAE, plays a significant role in the Korean language system. In the digital text realm, it is used to construct native Korean words using the Hangul writing system. As part of the Unified Hangul Code (UHC) block in the Unicode Standard, it contributes to the precision and accuracy of written Korean language on digital platforms. The Hangul Jungsung Wae character forms a crucial component of the Hangul syllabary, which consists of 40 Jungseong characters that represent initial consonants or nasals in Korean phonology. Its usage is rooted in the rich cultural and linguistic history of Korea, where Hangul has been the primary written script since its invention by King Sejong the Great in the early 15th century. Today, U+116B HANGUL JUNGSEONG WAE continues to be an essential building block for creating a vast range of Korean words and phrases, contributing to the seamless expression of ideas, emotions, and stories in the Korean language across digital platforms worldwide.
