Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0FE5. 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+0FE5 to binary:
00001111 11100101. 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:
11100000 10111111 10100101

Description
U+0FE5 is a character in the Unicode Standard that holds significant importance in digital text representation, particularly within the context of the Korean language. Its typical usage lies in the display of specific characters when using certain encoding schemes, such as EUC-KR (Extended Unix Code for Korea), where it represents the consonant 'ㄲ' from the Korean alphabet, Hangul. This character is an integral part of the EUC-KR system, which is often used in older systems and software for text encoding within the Korean language. Although its usage has diminished with the advent of newer encoding standards like UTF-8, U+0FE5 remains a crucial element in maintaining compatibility with legacy systems that rely on EUC-KR for text representation. In summary, U+0FE5 serves as a vital component in digital text representation within certain Korean encoding schemes, preserving linguistic integrity and ensuring proper display of characters across various platforms.
